Summer non-waterproof motorcycle pants

Motorcycle trousers without a membrane are so much easier and more comfortable to wear than waterproof trousers. There is, of course, one problem with this form of attire on the bike. Basically, if it rains you are going to get wet.

The solution, of course, is to carry with you something like a pair of Scott waterproof, over-trousers. Now for some people this is an unimaginable inconvenience; a step too far. And indeed if you commute all year round, and like to tour in Wales, Scotland or Ireland then equipping yourself in this way may just not be for you.

But for most casual, weekend riders, rain is an unfortunate inconvenience, not a regular occurrence. Most weekend riders will look out of the window on a Sunday morning. If it's raining, they will go back to bed. What also has to be remembered is that, contrary to our unreliable memories, it does not rain all the time. On average in the summer in the UK, there will be some rain on just one day out of three.

The bottom line is that it just doesn't rain every day, and the reality for most of us is that if we find ourselves riding in the rain we have simply been caught out. And so we simply don't see the logic in always going out on a summer’s day prepared for an impending hurricane when, most of the time, we won't see a drop of rain.

Rokker Cargo Slim pants in olive

Paul K, Essex: Rokker slim cargo pants

I bought these Rokker Cargo pants during a flash weekend sale and they are excellent and I really like the slim fit and super soft material. I tried the John Doe cargos but I didnt like them much as they are much heavier and more relaxed fit. I havent used these Rockers on the bike yet due to the cold weather, but I am am looking forward to giving a good try out. Great service from Motolegends as always.. Thanks

Rokker Tweed Chino in dark grey

Rik: Everything Chris says it is

Am always flailing myself with guilt when I eye up Rokker gear. A bit like Klim soooo achingly cool, but really, is it that much more cool and that much more safe in the real world than say oh yawn Oxford chinos? I bought two of those for less than a pair of Rokker jeans a few months ago. OK, the armour is unwearable but, boy, have they come a long way since Oxford and Frank Thomas were just about the only brands we could look to because Dainese were soooo achingly cool, but really....You get the picture. First off, I cant verify the previous reviewers suggestion that the jean material is better, not least because I dont have any other Rokkers but perhaps also because if Chris says they are the same material, only they are printed with the snazzy tweed, then Im thinking theres no difference in material, right? Sizing a perfect 3232 come up like LevisUniqlo. Fit like a glove. I parted company with my quads a few years back, so the taperedslim fit doesnt make me look like a fat middle aged bloke in denial. Comfort gorgeous, the stretch is just-so, and although were told the tweed pattern is a print, you really do need to be told, to know. I like SAS Tec armour, so Im fine with the included set. If anything, the profile is slightly less obvious than my D30 retrofitted on the Oxfords but that could just be the coarser material on the Oxfords... and theres the rub - the tweed pattern justifies itself because its highly acceptable in the day job the tan Oxfords are, too, to be fair, but the olive cargos raise eyebrows in the corridors of power. So, a very desirable piece of kit from an edgy brand, that justifies cost on usefulness, safety and practicality. And in one of Motolegends legendary sales, irresistible. Also, you get a cool bag... Just hanging about in case the matching vest comes up on sale. Ive got just the right cap.

Klim Switchback cargo pant in asphalt

Sean: Switchback

Been contemplating buying these pants and finally went for it. I must say they are very comfortable and seem a little thicker than my Rokker Jeans, but maybe its the stitching and pockets. Pants are a little baggy but work well with my MX boots and TCX ankle boots with the adjustable hem. From ordering online to delivery this as always was seamless from Motolegends and courier.
