Waterproof pants that aren't overpants

Post by MThomas »

Need a pair of riding pants that are waterproof that look somewhat presentable in a social setting.
I don't want to have to remove waterproof overpants and stow them away, I just want to jump off the bike and go in.

I found this which I think is a great idea but $550 is way out of the budget:

Any alternatives?

You could check these out.
Not sure how I missed those but alas they don't have my size (I have short legs)

The pants on the other link were too expensive but thanks

I like ICON stuff, cool looking and more affordable than other options. And it's an Oregon company. And their project bikes are edgy.

No affiliation or 1st hand experience with the products, could be awesome or could be junk. These pants look good online, would want to see them live and in person. Perhaps get a size appropriate to wear as single layer, since ICON says "Dare to be Different".
