Default RST Paragon II Textiles???

Does anyone have any real world experience with these?

I need a new pair of trousers for the winter and quite like the look of these.

I know RST had a bit of a rep for dodgy stitching a few years ago, but I believe this issue has been dealt with.

I had a pair of RST trousers that literally came apart at the seams -- seems highway speeds are too much for them..

Thanks for the info guys. Bit of a shame as the kit looks alright - esp at the price.

i found my leather RST gear to be more water proof than the textile, infact my textile jacket leaked so bad it killed my phone that was in the inner pocket

HG email ad this week was Goretex suits for £350

NAGANO jacket with ATLAS trousers

Offer only in stores until Tuesday 5th October

No idea if they're any good or not, but my Toureg stuff has served me well...
