    Looking for recommendations. I had a pair of lined flexothane pants. A serious job no sweat at all. Unfortunately I can't seem to get the same again. What ones are similar or what do ye find are the best?

    Literally sitting admiring my flexothane pants that I’m wearing, marvelling at the great job they do. You have me panicking now that when they’re worn out I won’t get them again.

    These are the ones I have.

    Cheers I've seen them alright but the pair in question had a lining on the inside. Dry pants all day.

    I only wear bib and pu waterproof trousers zero sweat as all moisture and vents out the top. 100% waterproof unbeatable and not expensive. I would never wear pull ups again

    Keep an eye out for Lidl/aldi ski pants, or ski pants in TK Max can be good value too.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    I have an old hydrowear suit here that was fantastic at the beginn8ng but leaks like a sieve now

    Do they have to be sealed again, is there's spray or something that can be used
