I had to bin my ancient 3/4 length shorts last year.
Looking for new ones and there isn't much choice. Other than endura, do people still make them?
Mine were zymes and I'm looking for something similar for commuting.
Synthetic, low bulk, minimalist, no loud colours or designs around £50 max.
Baggy not lycra...
Was gutted when I wore a big hole in the arse of my 3/4 Zymes.

I'm long legged which is part of the reason I want 3/4.
They needn't be cycling specific but back when I'm commuting 5 days a week they need to be tough enough to to last.

Madison. Note, I'm 5ft 10m, and my Medium Madison 'shorts' are what pretty much whay I would call a 3/4 length anyway. Cover my knees at least!
I've some Endura MT500 Spray 3/4 baggies and they're great.

Find some suitable full-length trousers and apply scissors + sewing machine? It's certainly what I expect to have to do when my Zymes wear out if they're no longer available.
