Danny,
A long time ago, I did the overpants that were not very good at letting air IN, and my legs and boys paid the price.
I might suggest a pair that are dual type overpants. I have a pair of Fieldshire that I got about 6 yrs ago, they are armoured in the knees and hips. But they are of mesh in the upper thighs and side legs. They also come with a pair of inner liner pants for cold weather riding, this design is perfect for me. Liner in the morning when colder, then just my jeans under the pants when it gets warmer. Just additional info, you know, to make it easier,
.
Ride safer all, and ATGATT please.
Greg
