Cool weather pants
 

Since my nice cheap New Balance windbreaker pants met their end in my chainring last fall I've been without cool weather pants. I used a pair of heavier duty nylon pants in the winter with success. Now that the temps are averaging around the 40's I need something a little cooler. What are y'all using? I'm thinking of actually buying some cycling-specific clothing for once. The Rivendell wool semi-tights look perfect but they don't have size men's large in stock. Campmor has "Illuminite Trac pants" which look good but again, I failed to order them when my size was still in stock. Any other suggestions?

When I want rain pants, I wear my REI Elements hiking pants and just wrap a reflecty band around the ankle to keep them out of the chain.

I wore a set of lined bib tights on my commute in this morning from aerotech designs:

the ride was -3c/26f, 7 km. Got a bit chilly from the knee down near the end of the ride.

Hey, thanks for the link. I ended up ordering the "Freedom Cycling Pants" from Aerotech. Good for 35-65F, they look perfect.

i bought those long leg bibs and a pair of bib shorts, and they're both wonderfully made..i imagine you'll like what you order.

Power Shield pants are actually rain pants, but they wick sweat very well. Lou at Foxwear
makes each pair to fit - he'll have you take measurements before making the pants.

40 and above is great for leg warmers...lower i do tights..underarmor or cycling specific I have a pair of fleece illuminite ones that work well for 25-40 or so

Longjohns from Target work well under tights, anything made from synthetic material.
