[QUOTE="Steve in Phx, post: 1304775, member: 19242"] I live in sunny [B]Phoenix[/B], Arizona. I'm looking for mesh [B]over pants[/B] that I can wear over my work clothes (usually boots, slacks + belt, and a dress shirt). I would love some feedback on which pants you guys have had good experience with. Important features for me are: [COLOR=#ff0000]+[/COLOR][B]Zippers[/B] all the way up the leg, so I can get into them without removing my boots. [COLOR=#ff0000]+[/COLOR]LOTS of [B]air flow[/B]. My summer commute home in mid-afternoon sun will be [I]well over[/I] 100 degrees for much of the year. [COLOR=#ff0000]+[/COLOR]A color other than [B]black[/B] might be nice. My other black gear gets [I]really hot[/I] in the sun. [COLOR=#0000ff]-[/COLOR]I have rain gear for the three days of the year I get rained on. So rain protection is not important to me. My budget is [B]$150[/B]. I see lots online for less than that so the price shouldn't be an issue. My local Cycle Gear doesn't have any good stuff. Only Bilt and Sedici. I don't like the Bilt brand. The Sedici appears to be too heavy, with insufficient mesh to flow air. Some searched have shown a few good reports about the Olympia Airglide 3. Would appreciate more feedback. Thanks in advance.
