Icon Hooligan 2 Mesh Overpants Mesh overpant - the idea seems a bit odd at first - until you try them. The Fighter Mesh chassis provides excellent abrasion resistance while allowing complete freedom of movement and incredible ventilation. Integrated mechanical flex zones further increase the mobility and comfort of the pants. Worn over a set of normal pants this outfit provides a great riding experience in warmer weather climates while providing enhanced protection. Features Icon loose overpant fit pattern Removable knee impact protectors Durable breathable fighter mesh nylon chassis Adjustable waist straps Perforated panels for venting Ribbed flex panels on knees Zippered side pockets for secure storage Ratchet waist closure

These fit well, but they only have one length and I'm a little short. On the bike it's not problem, but walking around they drag a little in the back. Overall though, they do just what I want: allow me to ride to and from work when it's 100+ degrees outside without getting (too) sweaty.

REV'IT! Axis Pants The REV'IT! AXIS was purpose-built to meet and exceed the needs of the daily commuter. You had a laundry list of requirements, and we listened. REVIT AXIS is a 100 waterproof, wide-fitting overpant, which can be donned quickly over jeans without the need to remove your boots, thanks to a 2-way side zipper. The outer shell is constructed of a strong polyester fabric with CE-approved armor at the knees, which can be adjusted in height on the inside. AXIS is simple, strong, practical, and durable. Asked and answered. REVIT PROTECTION FEATURES Outer shell polyester 600D Waterproofing water resistant Composition outer shell 100 polyester lining 98 polyamide, 2 polyester Protection Knox Flexiform CE protection at knees Visibility laminated reflection at calves ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit tour fit, regular Adjustability adjustment tabs at waist and ankles Features elastic at waistband, two-way easy entrance zipper, belt loops

These pants are good as over pants. They're not that expensive and they get the job done. They break the wind very well and add a fir amount of warmth. I've been riding comfortably in 30 degree weather with just jeans underneath these pants. These seem to be made well also.
CONS: The knee pads don't stay in place well and some hip protection would be a nice addition.

The video review recommended these gloves for winter riding with heated grips. They were spot on! I don't feel like I have a huge and bulky gloves on and my hands stay warm down into the low 30's at highway speeds with the heated grips on.

A new PHOENIX ladies jacket requires new trousers. These fully ventilated GEAR ladies trousers guarantee a great match. Comfort is the key word for these lightly pre-shaped bootcut trousers, which feature a detachable membrane for comfortable riding in all types of weather.

What size should I order if measurements are: 86 cm waist and 76.5 cm inseam? I am concerned because most people say that re'vit runs small.
Does that mean I should go by the sizing chart or order 1 size larger than the chart indicates? Thank you.
I ended up having to order two sizes up. If you're near the upper range of the suggested size, I would seriously consider moving up two sizes.

Are these going to work in temps down to 40deg F? I ride about 25 miles in the AM and it can get chilly
Yes, with tall boots to kill the draft from below, you should be fine. They are comfortable for me down into the 30's.
