    Pants?

    I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking for here. But I would like some pants to ride in that look like pants. & not capris. Think in terms of Harlot except full length.

    I could just wear shorts with chamois under regular pants. But right now styles aren't conducive, the legs are too big. There are lots of rain pants, but not exactly right either.

    Ya know want I mean?

    I know what you mean, but I don't know of any. I think she's looking for a pant with a chamois that isn't a capri, and doesn't look like tights. So, a full length version of the board rider capri and the like.

    I ride in regular pants with the ever so fashionable leg band. Might be an option?

    Yoga pants? With the fashionable leg bands on both sides?

    That's pretty much it. Years ago I had old-fashioned pants clips. Metal and held your pants leg. Don't know whatever happened to them.

    Basically the pant would have to have a fitted leg, at least from the knee down. I might try Goodwill and see if I can find some old school pants with peg-legs. Course I don't want parachute pants.

    There must be slim stretchy ski pants out there that look more like pants than biking tights do, yet aren't flappy or loose. Look though ski apparel on the sporting goods websites.
