updated 10.11.2007: So i've been riding these a lot more since I wrote my review of these and I have a few things to add. I really like these pants. they're a little shorter then all the rest and I like that. I wore these on really hot days and they were perfect. I'm also pretty sure that they're going to last forever.

And to everyone who emailed me about the price…come on- they're hand made- I would drop the cash no problem. he should start saying that they are sweatshop free and then everyone would start paying- no problem. -cole

What can I say- I like ¾ pants. Under the Weather sent me a pair of their Sit and Spin pants to try out. Sam at Under the Weather is real cool and gave me a ton of options when I ordered. You have your choice of snap + adjustable buckle closure, or snap only closure (better for wearing with a belt) which is cool- most companies don't give you the options.

These pants are made to wear over your bike shorts and to me that makes sense because if you have a pair of bike shorts, chances are you like them and they're comfy, and these will go right over the top, so you don't let every one see the stuff they really don't want to see. The pants have nice cargo pockets and I like the use of the reflective material on the back of the legs. The fit is a little tighter than I like but that's just me. After a week of pedicabbing in these pants they're still prefect. The only thing I noticed is that the material is a little slippery and I'm scared that when I sit on my seat I'm going to slip off. That's the only thing I noticed, but then again, I'm a little crazy. Over all, I really like these pants- definitely worth the money.
