i use this type of trouser (with full length side entry) daily to go to work and wearing work cloth underneath... i don't get problems of getting changed since all i need to do is to unzip one side and step straight out, takes 10 sec.

just wondering if anyone else likes this type of waterprof or not...

Looks like some good gear for the ride to work.

Sounds useful, if you're well-endowed. :wink:

I have a pair of Swift Speed pants which I use in much the same way in wet weather.

They have the usual removable quilt lining for when it's really cold but most of the time I just use them over normal trousers.

I wear leather keks when it's dry, though.

I've seen a full version of this made by Alpinestars. All the armour in the usual places too.
But at 340 odd squids :shock: i'd rather buy some leathers.

Especially when they'll be fitted with the special Frank Thomas zips and velcro, guaranteed to break one day out of guarantee :) I've a pair f Belstaff corduras which i wear in exactly the same way, just bought one size up from my usual so they'll fit over clothes.
