Advice on zipped leg cover up trousers

[darkhorse]

I am after a pair of cover up type trousers with full length leg zips.

Need to be 100% waterproof.

Any suggestions, I know BMW do a pair, but a bit pricey.

I have the cover pants, very good and they are dead easy to get on and off, but if its just waterproof your after [and you wear your armoured kit underneath] you may be better served by some mountaineering pant from Berghaus et al

Wot Chris G said.... Outdoor kit will do the trick.

Get yourself down to an army surplus store and see what they have. Ex-army goretex stuff that I have seen in Marcross Stores in Bristol looks excellent value. I can highly recommend Laurence Corner as you are in London. - http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/directory/1245.php

Here`s one.....

It`s often a good idea to open the zips before attempting to get yer feet through the openings......

I've got a pair of Quicksilver snowboard pants, full length zips, waterproof and they have a baffle at the bottom of the legs that stop em riding up. Top notch, especially as i got them half price at the end of the ski season.

BMW Cover trousers, worth every penny!

Had them 2 years, never leaked once and riden in some foul weather for prolonged periods.

I bought a pair of Harley Davidson Waterproof trousers from the bmf. they have full length zips down the sides which gets over the layby break dance routine, they have zip out liners, so good for all year round. Have to say I haven't found anything better never got wet in them even having done quite a few miles in them. From the outside you wouldn't know they were from HD, who I understand still sell them in their dealers.
