Polyester Pants won't wear holes?
I having been riding with a cheap ebay Polyester + Spandex cycling tights for more than 7 months. And so far, no holes yet at the bottom. So is polyester the solution for holes in pants? I want to wear regular pants but don't want to damage them...

I wear the knees out before the posterior of my jeans.

As to regular pants. If one must pedal in pants, try something like work n gear or dickies, the ploy blend twill ones.

I've ridden jeans to work for the past 5 years. Only one pair (out of a half dozen or so) shows any sort of... posterior degradation. Then again, I'm a light person and I'm light on the saddle. And when I AM on the saddle, I don't move much.
