As long as you don't have large calves. If you do, the velcro straps may not quite be long enough...

Having large calves is only a dream for me, but they match the rest of my chicken legs.  [roll]

this is kind of an old thread, but does anyone have the Bohn adventure pants?  I got some as a gift and I'm not sure about the sizing.  The charts says 38=XL.  I wear a 36 or 38, depending on the pant (dickies, 38.  loose jeans 36).  I'm afraid the 36 will be far to tight, while the 38 doesn't feel snug as I would think it should.

Mostly I don't want to deal with returning them since I had to open the package to try them on and the exchange rules for Competition Accessories are kind of vague.


Anyone have experience with these pants and can attest to how snugly they should fit?


thanks

Check out this link http://www.dainese.com/eng/coll_city.asp. I guess this is how the europeans do it, and seems cool to me.

With the wet weather and cold that we have been having, I finally went out and purchased a set of knee/shin guards. I bought EVS Option guards. They are mostly designed for motocross use, but they work great on the street. I tuck the shin portion into the top of my A*s boots. They keep my legs much warmer under the jeans I ride in, and they provide great coverage in case of a crash, and would save your kneecaps in case of a slow/no speed tip over. Best part is they only cost $18 from cyclegear!!!
