Bikes: 2010 Cannondale Hooligan 3

This is my favorite style of pant. They are comfortable, you can ride whatever bike you want in them, in hot weather with sandals or in cold with an under layer, socks and boots!

I just wear them all the time now. I also fire spin and rock climb, and these are versatile and perfect for those activities too.

I have 2 pairs of chrome shins knickers which were purchased at half price, and I love them both to the point that if they were still available, I'd buy another 2 at normal price. They are extremely comfortable, the material is super tough, comfy, water repellant and good looking.

Chrome makes knickers now called the loop. I purchased a pair expecting something like the shins, and was heavily disappointed. The new material is thinner and flimsy feeling, the pockets are harder to comfortably pack things into, and the elastic at the pockets makes them unattractive. I don't recommend the new chrome knickers, personally. They don't look or feel as good at all.
