I'm taking it that you're looking for day to day trousers and not trousers to wear on your motorbike....

Have a look at the various trousers from Paramo.

The materials that Paramo use is not to everyone's taste so you really do need to try them on. They MIGHT feel slightly bulky for everyday use, see what you think. I've found Paramo clothing to be as waterproof as waterproof clothing gets, is quite breathable and washes/reproofs really well.

NOT cheap but really good stuff that lasts and lasts. There is not a single day of my life when I don't wear one of my FIVE Paramo jackets....

We use berghaus walking trousers at work for smart ‘tailored’ bike waterproof trousers, and they have been brilliant.

Are they completely waterproof Giles; i would have thought the wind and movement would have pushed the water through. They look alot better than the boil in the bag stuff i use.

+1 for Rohan. I've got two pairs, very presentable, very waterproof. Not cheap but you get what you pay for. They are very long lasting as well.

Yes! Good kit and over leathers have a nice tailored fit. (Zip from ankle to waist each side as well so easy to put on ..)
