Default Riding Pants

I am looking at mesh riding pants for the summer and was wondering if anyone has these and if they wear them over their jeans? If so, did you get one size larger than your regular jeans?

Thanks
Jose

yep i have agv aero mesh pants, i got them in a size larger and they fit over my jeans just fine. I use them for work and on the weekend rides. For convenience I picked up a pair of draggin jeans and the ce knee armor which ill use more in summer (don't feel like wearing two pairs of pants in the heat).

How do the Draggin jeans run size wise? Are they baggy or slim?

Both styles are available. they even have plus sizes for jumbo riders. Check their site www.dragginjeans.com I also bought their black long sleeve 100% kevlar shirt for summer, then discovered it was great for layering under leathers for cooler rides. I bought the armor for jeans and the shirt. Fit of the jeans armor is fine, the shirt armor will take getting used to, plus it makes you look like a fullback. If you have questions, call them, they're very helpful.

Yeah i found them to fit like normal relaxed fit levis (i got the relaxed fit draggin jeans). I wear them all day at the office once a week or so, comfortable like normal jeans. I'm also thinking of getting their kevlar shirt too for summer time, even wearing a mesh jacket can be a bit warm when temps get up there. So no complaints with the shirt SKTR? I'd prolly wear it over another shirt...thinking the kevlar might make my skin itch...not sure.

Very good quality. Order your normal size (but be honest w/yourself)
