Grease_Monkey Posted May 7, 2021 Share More looking at whats locally available as bringing in clothes from Europe, the added tax is ridiculous Not suggesting you import - just for advice on what is comfy. Guessing there are alot more rides wearing long pants that can comment that there will be here. MajG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been doing some Google magic and found some info, but then just crappy as we don't get it here locally.Fox comes up and good and the endura brand https://enduro-mtb.com/en/best-mtb-pants/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Stewart Posted May 7, 2021 Share I want it purely for the additional protection on those falls and also for the cold n wet . A great money saver would be to upskill to the point that falling is no longer a concern. You do that, you can ride in your ontie if you dare.

Grease_Monkey Posted May 7, 2021 Share A great money saver would be to upskill to the point that falling is no longer a concern. You do that, you can ride in your ontie if you dare. Upskilling and falling go hand in hand. The (technically) best riders I know fall often and hard. Not that you have to fall to get better, just hard to separate the two.

philip.maree Posted May 7, 2021 Share I bought a pair of Fox Defend Pants from Fox Racing South Africa but sent them back as their sizing is just wrong and they didn't have a larger size in stock. They looked like very good quality.https://www.foxracing.co.za/products/defend-pant They have confirmed that they are getting Fox Ranger Pants in at the end of May. So will purchase a pair as soon as they landhttps://www.foxracing.co.za/products/ranger-pant Want to try them for winter riding and I think they will look better at a coffee stop than winter lycra's Edited May 7, 2021 by philip.maree MajG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Stewart Posted May 7, 2021 Share When I watch Danny MacAskill videos, he falls ALL the time. No one is comparable to him. If he isn't falling, he's doing it wrong. But yes, if you mount the saddle on a mtb, falling is not far off. I was being a bit tongue in cheek though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
