I know these are expensive, but much less so when you consider:

1. They're so comfortable on and off the bike (temperature, stretch)
2. They're virtually waterproof.
3. They're virtually stain proof.
4. They're stink proof (rarely need washing; one pair will be enough unless you want to mix it up).
5. They look decent.
6. They show no apparent signs of cycling-related damage such as crotch erosion.

Btw Rapha has an equivalent line (though even more expensive) with a more khaki-like color:

Those do indeed look good, but it's annoying that they don't offer any options for the inseam. I guess I'm too short for my waist. Damn size-ists.
