I've been using the 3/4s for a few months now, and they've been great on my road commutes and mtb rides. A dry arse is a revelation. The meds come down just below the knee and im 6ft/32in waist. I'm glad I went for them over the Endura superlites, and wouldnt hesitate to buy again.
Bah, darn companies sizing for normal people! If meds give the 32 waist, they will fit nicely. but won't be near by 6ft 3 knees 🙁
Also been using a pair of 3/4's for about 2 to 3 months, they keep my bum dry and fit quite nice, and are still in one piece. Even ditched my rear mudguard as they do their job so well, and my bike just looks better without it, so really all is good 😀
As I said in my review they are RECOMMENDED. Been out in my 3/4s tonight and I am crisp and dry 🙂 Best buy of the lot.
If a medium comes down to just under your knee @6ft then they will be dragging on the floor with me 5ft 4" !!!!
I think i'd better go into merlin and try em.

Yep, sizing really is odd on these, completely different to altura's other gear - strange cut around the arse/thigh area. Good fabric though!
