I have had the Ranger 3 pants for a few weeks now and have found them to be a great riding pant. The fit was a little wonky. I wear a size 32 pant normally and was advised to get that size in the Ranger pant, but with the liner in and jeans on underneath it was just too tight. I went up one size to a 34 and am happy with that. I very much appreciate the extra length on these pants. I know some buyers will have to have them hemmed up but they fit my long frame out of the box.
On the road the pants are comfortable and warm. I would wear these pants on all but the hottest summer days. I like the idea of wearing shorts underneath so when I arrive at a destination I can cool off.
The pants are well made and nice to use. I have heard some complaints about the velcro over the zippers but I find it handy and not too hard to live with. The pants are easy to get in and out of due to the full length zippers.
I haven't had the chance to try these pants in the rain but it seems like they would keep my quite dry. As I mentioned, these are not great hot weather pants as there is no ventilation but they sure are great on these freezing cold mornings. I would recommend these to anyone looking for an affordable, versatile overpant for commuting or normal riding.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Dainese New Drake Air Textile Pants Drake pants will surely interest anyone who loves to ride his or her bike especially in the warmer months without wearing a suit or leather pants in order to obtain the protection required. These previously contrasting needs have now been perfectly reconciled by Drake fabric pants. Ample air vents in fretted fabric with closing on the thighs permit fresh air to enter during riding for cooling relief on even the hottest days. When temperatures begin to drop, the air vents can be closed. Safety is guaranteed by removable composite protections in the knee and shins, while extra-strength Cordura 750 fabric offers protection in case of fall. The elastic inserts in the knee optimise the wearability of the article, which is equally suited to metropolitan motorcycle use. Features Removable composite protectors. Cordura fabric 750. Suretta fabric. Perforated fabric. Insert in elasticated fabric. Soft inserts. Calf zip. Jacket-trousers fastening system. Adjustable waist. Sanityzed lining.
 

Leg opening size

Is the leg opening big enough to go over let's say a race style boot with the shin protectors on in?
I think probably not. The leg opening is generous but even with my street boots I have a hard time getting in and out of the pants with them on. The pants do have full length zippers which are great but I still don't think it would be easy to get them on or off with racing boots on.
