Fieldsheer Adventure Pant $180
For cruiser riders there aren't many pants that offer comprehensive protection without making one look like a roadracer. Fieldsheer manages to bridge the divide with the Adventure Pant.
The highly abrasion-resistant outer shell is 1000-denier Teflon-coated Maxtena with ballistics cloth on the knees and seat. For impact protection there's CE-approved armor in the knees (adjustable for height) and memory foam in the hips. And for nighttime safety there is reflective Phoslite piping on each leg.
The Adventure Pant includes a removable, insulated liner with full-length side zippers. For comfort there are stretch panels in the crotch, above the knees and behind the lower leg. There are two front pockets, and the pants close with an array of Velcro, zippers, snaps and a button. Though each leg has a zippered gusset at the bottom, we needed to take our boots off to get in and out of the pants. Last, the Adventure Pant has a waterproof and breathable lining that keeps the rider completely dry in the rain (we can attest to its effectiveness).
We find the Adventure Pant quite comfortable, and the fit adjustments are very welcome. The liner provides good insulation, but we discovered that without jeans or long underwear underneath, the nylon could be perspiration-inducing. On the plus side, the pants fit easily over a pair of jeans for quick changes at the office. We'll rate them three-season-they're ready for our fall, winter and spring riding adventures. -Evan Kaywww.fieldsheer.com View Related Article
