I picked up a pair of these today at the OC store and i am amazed at how comfortable they are. I usually ride in either jeans or textile pants as all the leater pants i have tried on seemed to be severely lacking in comfort. As soon as i put them on they just felt so good. They had a bike at the store you could sit on and once i got on it they were even more comfortable then just walking around in them. I had the clerk ring them up and i wore them out of the store. The entire hou ride home was simply heaven. I had a better feel for my cycle. These are a sound choice for leather pants and a great product by a great manufacturer.
