Leather Pants

Thought I would pass this along to you guys. I bought a really nice pair of armoured leather pants from Leather Up the other day. They were only $79 plus they had a Veterans Day discount coupon that put them at my door for $75.
These are really well made pants. I am shocked at how nice they are. The leg opening at the bottom is large enough to fit over my boots.

Sizing is pretty close to actual. I normally wear a 38, but ordered a 40 based on the way most motorcycle pants are sized. They are about a 1/2 size too large.
Currently their stock is low.

Wow, good find. How does that kidney belt attach to jackets? The listing is sort of... repetitively vague.

It has the standard zipper in the back. They are pretty good about restocking. There are other companies that stock Xelement goods.

Great deal. What was the sizing like? Did what you ordered fit as expected?

I would order your regular pants size. I wear a 38, but ordered a 40. The 40 feels like a 39 actual. I could fit into a 38 I expect. The waist has elastic panels.
I went on a "spirited" sportbike ride Sunday of a little over 300 miles. The pants were very comfortable.
