Overpants?

I'm looking for nice, well built overpants for commuting. Changing at work unfortunately is not an option, so I need something to go over the khakis.  I originally bought the JR Phoenix pant (deal with the jacket) and after a year am not impressed with them. 

I read the review on the tourmaster pants, but would like to hear about experiences with other pants to get a better idea about my options.

Thanks

I use my Dainese D-Dry pants all the time over work or casual clothes, they have done a great job of keeping me dry in rainstorms too. [thumbsup]

Olympia air*** overpants here.  They fit well,  have a removable insulated liner for cool weather too.

I run motogp over pants. Can't remember what model but I've ridden through the rain with them and been happy. I've also taken out the liner and run them 90 deg weather. I got hot for sure but it kept me from cooking my leg on my exhaust pipe.

Aerostitch Darien overpants.  They're a little pricey, but very well built and waterproof.  Also fairly warm in the winter as they block the wind very well, but not overly hot in the summer since the pads keep the fabric away from you...They can get hot in 90+ degree weather though.
