Wondering what the fit is like, would they be ok for riding in and general hacking about

Any size advice?

I'm wearing a pair now. Fit is fine but I wouldn't bother for riding in. OK for a walk in the rain/snow.

Well, I got some, they're fine jeans, but not really very waterproof. I may be missing something but I walk out in the rain, and the jeans get wet..

When I got them i poured a glass of water over them and it just beaded off, but in actual real rain they appear to be pretty much like normal jeans. Maybe not quite holding as much water as normal ones perhaps.

Size wise, I'm 6'4'' and the long ones are a tiny bit short but I like them to drag on the ground so hey. I've also got the skinny ones but i'm a rake..

M&S are doing their own brand of water-resistant jeans now.
