Gramicci wool pants http://www.gramicci.com/Womens_Merin.../96080252.html
I don't like the path Gramicci has taken over the years. They used to be great active-wear pants. Now they are mall-crawler clothes. Plumber's butt. Why doesn't anyone make REAL pants anymore? whine whine whine...
Rivendell needs to make some lightweight wool MUSA pants, just to make me happy. It's all about me, y'know!

Rivendell makes pants? I thought they just made bikes?

If they weren't nylon, I'd've bought 'em already. Nylon and my overactive sweating ability don't mix well.

Might buy 'em for work anyway.
Can we go to Rivendell next weekend?

I scored a Smartwool mid-weight long-sleeve zip-neck shirt at Steep and Cheap a couple days ago. It's in the mail now. (Don't tell anybody, but I already had a long-sleeve zip-neck Merino shirt, but it wasn't Smartwool.)
Knot, I think the breathability of nylon pants depends on how the fabric is made. All hiking pants these days are nylon, and hikers sweat alot and wear the same pants for 5 days straight without washing.
Oil is good, grease is better.

Knotted, where does it say what the MUSA pants are made of? I can't find that info?![]()

Trek, Rivendelll doesn't "make" the pants, they just sell them along with other biking accessories and parts. Also, maybe they commission them to be made just for Rivendell to sell, like they do with some saddlebags and such.
