    Lycras or teh baggies? If lycra, I’ve had enduras, fit great, tend to fall apart. El cheapo dhbs which don’t fit so great, but last OK with a stich or two here and there and some Polaris jobbies. Early days on these, but fit is great and they’ve not fallen apart within the usual timescale of the enduras.

    Baggy, not lycra. Thanks for asking.
    Those Race Face look good. Is there anything slightly heavier duty or maybe waterproof there?

    I’ve found 2 pairs of trousers and 2 pairs of shorts in yet another cupboard. No need to blow the pennies so it’ll be another Maxxis Medusa 2.1 set 🙂

    Hmm !

    Sorry i cant agree with you on the Humvee’s

    Ive had a pair for about 5 Months i only wear them on the weekend and the stitching has worn out and the the material is threadbare on the seat area.

    They have gone back to Endura to be inspected ?
    For what i do not know ? I can confirm i have been riding my bike in them and i have sat on my seat 😮

    My 3/4 length Endura Singletracks are doing good service. I use them from about nowish to around March. The rest of the year I used the shorter “normal” Singletracks. Both very good.

    I’ve just been sat looking @ The singlrtack ones !
    They look like a viable option ?

    Also

    As above Zymes, I,ve never really considered these before but these too look like a good sturdy pair of 3/4 Baggies

    I will await ENDURA’S decision as to what they perceive to be normal use ?
    Not detracting from the fact that i personally really like their kit.
