Have just got a rather nice split in my Endura overtrousers and need some more.
Anyone bought any decent ones lately?

Do you mean for walking about in? German army flectarns are great for hiking - wouldn't be great for the bike, though.

Not for walking. Just for riding in.

Keela Scuffer trousers; plenty warm and dry enough!

[b]househusband[/b], are these actually waterproof? Like the look of the stretchy material and not too baggy cut

What I do with the wife is of none of your concern.

I was about to recommend Endura Gridlock. Had mine for about 8 years. Used them solid for about 4 years.

I don't think the strongest gaffer tape in the world will manage to keep my enormous package in check 😀
I'll check out the ones mentioned above....or MTFU and wear waterproof shorts and knee warmers for my dodgy knees.

This is fortuitous, my altrua nevis OTs are mostly gaffer tape at this point and i have been looking at replacements.
