I hate my textile trousers only wear them in winter. Try and go meet with mates in a pub in winter. Sewatiness at its best. Leathers are v comfortable just not as warm. Even with long johns underneath.

Take it you've taken the inner liner out?

I did try a set of leather trousers but my missus laughed at me so much i had to send them back. She couldnt look at me for a good few hours it was embarrasing

LoL mine was the opposite!

My leathers are also cooler than my textiles, they feel 10 times safer too.
I only wear the textiles now if there's a chance of rain.

What do you wear underneath your textiles, get a sports base layer or maybe something from the EDZ undersuit range, they are designed to wick the moisture away from your skin so you dont get sweaty, also they'll keep you warmer on a cold day to.

Might be worth a try ?

Have a look at the ProSkins stuff - I used to suffer with sweaty legs and they saved me getting rid of my textiles.
