I'm a old post Levi's guy, and found a Jersey Knit fabric gives ,. where a Woven one will not..

pants used in Baseball seem to be a jersey Knit, for freedom of movement.. and sweatpants..

I got some compound fabric track Warmup pants , fuzzy poly fleece on the inside,
smooth nylon on the outside ..

Old and Fat, sweatpants suit me.

I have a pair of Rapha Knickers and the are great, the Schoeller fabric is very comfortable and they have a thin pad that works well with a pair of padded briefs. They also have good pockets. Knickers are great for spring and autumn riding.
