just got mine in as well. Also tend to run 31-32 on the pants sizes, but I tend towards 32 so I grabbed the M. Shants wise they seem to break about the same point as srsly's do in the picture, maybe a touch lower. The 3/4 leg is a pretty apt description.

Had them a couple days, liking them already and starting to love em. Wore my jeans yesterday and I couldn't wait to get back into the shants. The stretch is subtle and real nice. The padding is strange though, sort of nice when riding, but there still is this extra minor weight were it does not belong and the seams of the pad itch a touch. that seems to be fading as I break them in though.

the funniest part of the padding is when I toss my cell phone in the back pocket. They are internal pockets, and the bottom of the pocket extends below the top of the padding. Can't quite explain the feeling but something is odd with way it all feels. I expect I'll get used to it, but the stiff external pockets of jeans hold the phone way better.

The waist on these things is much higher than my other pants, no risk of plumbers crack with these things on. Sort of sucks cause the top of the pants is the best looking part and most of my shirts hang too low, which looks a bit odd. The waistband is some odd rubbery and ridged thing, looks really uncomfortable but feels fine. Guessing it prevents the waist from moving when you bend over to the drops, but I haven't actually noticed anything like that.

Ultimately though I spent too much money on these things cause I harbor fantasies of designing perfect "own only one" pair of pants for myself and I really wanted to check out the schoeller fabric. From online digging these are by far the nicest things made with it, and cost around the same amount. Other than the nice stretch I haven't really done anything to test this fabric out, weather has been too nice. I'll report back once I push them bit.
