RE: [RC] Comfort Issues on Long Rides - Smith, Dave

Lysane:  Went to the Equisssential Riding Pants website and the pants shown look really good – on a woman.  Do they make something for a man?  I’m thinking about just wearing my baseball pants or maybe some simple sweat pants.  Sure would be a lot cheaper.

I find the Equissential riding pants are very good at protecting the inner leg - they are pricey, it's true, but they last a long time and they will put the same leather onto new fabric when the fabric wears out. They have the endurance seat (full seat plus leather goes all the way down to the ankle) or the endurance patch (starts a little above knee and goes to the ankle. I find I don't need half chaps when I'm wearing those. And the fabric and deer skin leather is so comfy, I have not found any others like it.
