Hi,

Im in the market for decent textile trousers again due to the Koord ones being rubbish.
So, learning my lesson my budget has expanded to about £150 max.

Need ones that can stand up to daily use in all weathers, all year round.

Might be asking too much but its worth a go!

I've got some JTS ones which are pretty decent, though in stormy weather I wear high-vis highway over trousers which are completely waterproof.

Got a pair of Wolf Racing 34" if you interested.?

Worn once but looked like Coco The Clown as wolf is a very generous fitting.
34/36/38?

My Rev-it textiles withstood a 40mph slide...but only the once. They were pretty good.

Can't fault the Spadas I bought off Ebay for £40 new a couple of years back. Armour protection, very waterproof, toasty in winter yet wearable in summer. Haven't crashed in them, so can't offer a review on their abrasion resistance.

I'm happy with the Frank Thomas "aqua" trousers I got off Ebay a few months ago for £30. they had hardly been worn so were a bargain.
They have armour in all the usual places and the inner lining can be removed for summer use too

Spada Flage by any chance?

I had a pair for 2 years, great in winter but you sweat like crazy in them during summer.
