[RBW] MUSA pants, knickers, shorts coming back

I saw on the Blahg that RBW is getting in some new clothing. My MUSA shorts have been the best garment I've owned, sturdy and perfectly comfortable for hiking, riding, and general knocking about. Seemingly indestructible, yet I'll still get another pair or two. Anyone know if they'll be returni

Edwin, I replaced the elastic belts with non stretch webbing, and much prefer it. If I put anything in the pockets, the elastic belts stretched too much. Steve On Mon, Aug 31, 2020 at 8:16 AM Edwin W wrote: > Has anyone replaced the elastic band on their MUSA pants or shorts? I > replaced with c

Has anyone replaced the elastic band on their MUSA pants or shorts? I replaced with climbing webbing, but it has no stretch. I would love to hear of a tried a true source, as it is hard to see how thick the bands are online, and I am not sure where to even go in person to find such a thing. I th

My two cents -- they fit exactly like stretchy dickies. I am 6'2, 220 (36/32 pants) and fairly stocky/broad (played rugby for a long time) and the larges are just tight enough to not be obviously 'riding' pants. They fit really, really well. So well, that I -- a person who rarely wears bike-stuff

What can you tell me about the fit of the current MUSA long pants now back in stock? (the tapered ones) Always find buying clothes online risky. Most Riv stuff is cut generously but I'm probably at the upper end of the XL. (235 Lbs 36-38 waist depending on cut, 6'3") -Dan -- You received this

+1 on the Riv MUSA shorts. I have a number of pair that I’ve had for ~4 years, they are bombproof. I’m not as fond of the pants as they are a bit funky in the way they fit me. > On Dec 14, 2019, at 6:40 AM, Bill Schairer wrote: > > I love mine. I have three pair, 2 gray, 1 black. The black

Last thing I recall was that the entire MUSA program was being reconsidered. That was earlier in the summer I think. But as far as I can tell only the pants and non-black knickers have become unavailable since. So I'm hopeful that what sounded "dire" earlier was my misreading the signals and in
