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.

Verified customer reviews for Summer non-waterproof motorcycle pants

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.

Spidi Pathfinder cargo pants in tobacco

Hans: Very comfy on and off the bike

Very pleased with these as a comfortable pair of pants you can also wear off the bike. Slim fit and true to size. No need to replace armour with D3O Ghost, I tried both and original fit better without being bulky off the bike.

Fuel Sergeant 2 pants in black

Barry Davy: My second pair.

Ive owned a pair of Sergeant pants for about 6 years. Theyve been my go-to bike trousers and Ive covered 1000s of miles in them. Theyre beginning to get a bit shiny around the bum crotch area, so when Motolegends offered the Mk2s with £50 off I decided to get another pair as backup. Im 32 waist but ordered both 32 and 34 because the original Sergeants size small. There is no mention of this in the Motolegends description but the Mk2s are the same. So I sent the 32 waist back. No free returns on sale items, so it cost £3.40 postage, but thats fine. The Mk2 Sergeant pants are quite a bit longer than the Mk1s. The Mk1s were perfect for me but the Mk2s will need turning up. More significantly is that the leg is now wider. Initially this made me think twice about keeping them because I like the snug fit of the original pants. But from experience I know theyre hard wearing and I love the styling, so I just accept that theyre a slightly looser fit on the leg. Incidentally Ive never fitted the armour. Great service from Motolegends as usual.
