Post by: juggernaught on November 13, 2005, 05:49:19 PM
Hi guys and gals..!!

Ok i'm getting a pair of leather riding pants to use as overpants for the winter.  My waist is about a 30.  How large should i get them to comfortably fit over a pair of jeans..??

Thanx in advance.. :thumb:

Yeah as far as leather over pants, all I have ever seen are leather chaps, so probably you will have to go textile, which is not that big off a deal since you could get a pair of pants with  Codura(sp?) of like a 1000denir(sp?) which about equals leather, check the search and there is a discussion on leather vs. textile something with nylon in the subject line
