Excellent fit and finish. Easy to wear overtop of ADV boots. Knee armor is great. Hip pads are OK but you are better off replacing them with something else. Pockets are superb and well positioned. Expandable enough to use as overpants. Short sizing makes for a perfect leg length.

Sizing and fit: I’m 5’11”, and usually wear pants with a 40” waist and 30” inseam, although a 29” inseam would be perfect. I also have a slightly big butt.

I ordered these in XXL Short and the fit is perfect, with an exception that I’ll discuss under Style.

Waist, butt, and leg length are spot-on for me, and the back of the pants comes up nice and high to cover any gap that your jacket might leave if it’s not cut long enough.

Fasteners/adjustment: The waist has a regular zipper and two flat hooks (replacements are provided) – it’s a bit of a struggle at potty stops because to close the zipper all the way, it has to go up under the hooks, so you pretty much have to undo the zipper and the hooks to take care of #1-type business. Not a big deal, though. There are Velcro waist adjusters which work well. Medium-length zippers at the feet with a Velcro-strip fastening system so you can wrap the leg flaps loosely or somewhat tightly. These breathe reasonably well when it’s hot, although I don’t have experience with any other mesh pants to compare to – I think a breathable/quick-dry full-leg underlayer might help wick moisture, although so far I’ve just been wearing jockeys under it. There’s comfy mesh inside that feels decent on the skin.

Features: A thin breathable dry liner which zips out if you want air, or zips back in if you don’t want air or rain. (Haven’t used it yet, so not sure how much warmer it will make this in cooler weather.) Two generously-sized pockets in front with Velcro closures and drain holes for rain – if it’s raining, you’ll want to find somewhere else to put your pocket stuff. (No back pockets, I kind of miss them.) 8” zipper in back with the other side of the zipper included so you can sew it into your jacket if it doesn’t have a zipper or a compatible zipper. (I may be doing that, my Oxford Estoril Air 2.0 jacket has an 8” zipper but it is not compatible with the Cortech zipper.) Replaceable knee and hip armor – the knee pads can be adjusted up and down to match your own knees. It’s a bit of a pain, I had to turn the pantlegs inside out to get at the adjustment, which is just a number of Velcro strips in the pocket – you have to undo them all and then slide the pad up or down while keeping the Velcro apart, then push the Velcro back together when you’ve found the right place, which may take a few attempts. You only have to do it once, though, of course.

Style: This is my only complaint - as well as these fit me, they don’t LOOK like they fit me, they look kind of baggy in the legs. These are the only cycling pants I’ve ever worn, though, so I can’t judge if I’d look more like a steely-eyed European sport-touring guy in a different pair of pants or if I’d still just look like an old guy wearing good protective gear.

Overall: I love the fit, even if they look a bit baggy on me, and the protection appear to be good, and they’re good to ride in (at least in summer) and reasonably priced – I have a couple of weekend trips under my belt with these, and I think I made a good choice.

I bought these to replace my trusty but worn out Tour Master Venture Air Pants. The fit is more baggy than I expected but it doesn't look like I'm wearing pants which are too large for me. The airflow is great for the southwest summers. The front hook fasteners can be a little fiddly but that's a very minor issue.
I replaced the hip padding (I wouldn't call it armor) with the CE rated Forcefield hip armor that I'd bought for my previous pants.
I'm very happy with these pants and am now considering replacing my jacket with the matching Cortech Sequoia XC.

These are a baggy, loose fit, but once I got the right size, I really like them. Baggy enough to use as overpants. I've been using them for dual sport riding with swim trunks lately in 90+ degree days and they are not too hot. Also have decent stock padding for the type of riding I do. Fit over boots great. The removable liner is nice for rain and cooler temps. I think with the liner and a light base layer one could ride on cold days just fine. I prefer a pant that runs cool because I can always layer up. Still these don't flow massive air like some other mesh pants. You can see a little daylight in spots and will get warm if sitting still. All pads line up just right in riding position, and there is room to add more if need be.

Cons are clasp system feels like it is going to bend or rip apart to unbuckle. But so far so good, and it came with spare parts. Pockets are velcro, and pretty roomy for wallet or phone, but I would have loved a zipper for added security. Haven't lost a wallet yet, but they are just calling them handwarmer pockets.

I like these better than previous Joe Rocket balistic textile pants because of the fit and breath ability.

Legs were long, and diameter of legs was big, but the waist, even with the adjusters all the way out, was small. I guess their big sizes are meant for NBA players (very tall but fairly slim), not fat bikers.

es un pantalon super fresco exente para verano buena protección,

For that price, you can give it a C-, B+
but for overall protection, and styling, I would give it a D-...
the styling is very baggy, makes you look like your thighs were injected with hormone & enlarged... kind of like the Costco rotisserie chicken.

Base on the price and overall comfort, C+ would be fair.

So it's just ok
