Olympia Airglide 4 Pants

To start out with, I contacted Revzila customer service to inquire as to if this could be used as an over pant. Their response was absolutely, oder your normal size waist measurement and it will work just fine. No, not accurate.
I ordered my size and it is a very tight fit over street pants. I would've sent them back for a larger waist size but that would've put the length too long to hem without getting into the zipper. Which brings me to my next point. With the rain liner in and your footwear on they are a bit difficult to put on. Yes they have a nice long zipper, but don't forget if you leave the rain liner in, it's not easy to get the pant on and off.
Havnt hit the wet stuff yet so I don't know how waterproof they are.
Even though it is not advertised to keep ya warm, it did a very good job. Provided you had enough room to slip a pair of thermals under your street pants I bet they would get you through some pretty cold rides. With the rain liner still in of course.
If you can, spring for a next level waterproof over pant. I don't, so I will have to get skinnier or live with them being a bit tight.
Revzila makes it a point that Olympia pants have a special portion of hemability . Well if you look at the pant, there is a tab that you pull to tighten the fit. You'll have to have that re positioned by the seamstress or loose it. As well as losing a little or a lot of the other velcro closer at the bottom. Just a little something not mentioned in the review.

Fit -- Spot on. I wear a 32/32 in jeans. I ordered the size 32 and they were a great fit. The waterproof "liner" fits well under and over the pants. Once I had the pants on with my boots, I had no trouble putting on the liner over my boots and pants (I wore a pair of gym shorts under the pants). The liner went on easily despite having no zipper on the legs. The legs are extra wide with velcro strips to make them more narrow and not flap in the wind. There are adjusters on each side of the waist of the liner so you can get the liner to fit just right.

Comfort -- My first ride (3 hours mostly on small gravel roads) with these pants (without rain liner) was on my 2003 BMW Dakar. It was a sunny day about 75 degrees. I bought these to remain as cool as possible on hot summer days. Let me say that the air flow is unbelievably good (just gym shorts underneath)! In fact on a 75 degree day going 50-60 miles/hour, at times my legs were a bit chilly.

Design -- The pants look good enough so that you'll feel good about wearing them into a store or restaurant. The front pockets are roomy enough to keep the usual things like a wallet, keys, cell phone, etc. The back pockets are a bit shallow. But maybe that's so you don't wind up sitting on the contents in them. The full length zippers worked well. I have a 2 year old Olympia jacket that zips perfectly to the pants.

Protection -- The material seems durable and tough...only one way to find out, and I don't want to find out. The knee protectors are CE approved and comfortable. The hip protectors are foam. I plan on replacing them.

I can't wait to try them in the rain.

This is my second pair of riding pants, I needed a new set because my Sedici pants were just too hot even with the liners out. Olympia Airglide 4 provides plenty of mesh for those hot days. I can wear them as over-pants or, not to be too personal, I have worn them with just some Powercool Boxer Briefs and it is nice to feel the air in the high 80s and low 90s temps. Pretty good investment in my opinion.

This is my third pair of Air Glides. The first 2 pair lasted me 5 years each before the zippers finally gave out. I would have gladly given a 5 star rating if it weren't for the new liner pants which really suck. Luckily, I still have the old high quality liner pants, which have full length side zippers and can be worn separately without embarrassment. If the Airglide 4 is your first purchase in the line, you will love them. Just realize the liner pants have really gone down in quality. Happy Trails!

I waited until I wore these for a while before writing my review. They fit true to size, I ordered my pant size and they fit spot on in the waist, but are a bit long for me. I know Olympia says they are "easily hemmed by your cleaners", which I may do some day. They are not overly long, so probably will keep them the same. The Velcro at the cuffs is amazing, long, and does its job. The knee pads keep wandering to the inside of the knee, not sure why. After I get on the bike I move and twist the knee pads and lower leg of the pant to the outside, then the knee pad tends to stay where it needs to. I got the pewter color, a really nice change up from everything being boring black, to go with my Airglide 5 High Viz jacket and they look terrific together. Now I am stylin'! Front pockets are generous size, great zippers with pulls you can grab with your gloves on. Rear pockets are a but small but I sit there anyway, so they remain empty except for some emergency cash that I tend to forget is there. The side zippers go up to the waist, so eazy on, eazy off. No loner the one legged butt kicking contest to get pants on and off. These pants flow a ton of air and have no thermo liner. I was looking for a summer, chilling morning, every ride kind of pant to wear over jeans and shorts, so these fit the bill. Now for the BEST PART...the rain liner goes over the pants!!! Thank you Olympia! Why doesn't every manufacture do this? I keep the rain liner out, and just jump into it when needed for a really chilly morning or a rain shower. On, off, that easy. I no longer hesitate to pull over to slip this on. The same with the Olympia Air Gide 5 jacket as well, same over, under rain jacket. Lastly, high quality materials throughout. Its like someone who actually rides have used these pants and refined them through out their evolution! Bottom line, I wear them almost every ride and forget they are there. Enjoy1

I wear my AG4 pants to commute and cruise around town. I also wore them through the MSF course. I have not had many hours riding with the AG4 pants but they have lived up and surpassed my expectations. The rain liner is a welcome feature and negates the need to buy a separate rain suit. There is not thermo liner like that on the AG5 jacket but as an overpants you will be covered when wearing your favorite jeans. I have not used the rain liner yet but I know that will change shortly in the near future.

The styling is pretty nice and certainly represents the sport bike motif. I'm not one to care about what others think so I personally have no problem rocking only this and a pair of lightweight shorts underneath. The fit off the bike is very comfortable and super airy in a nice breeze. The 3M piping gets a knock from me in the style department. Even though the reflective stripe is a safety feature it could have better integration in aesthetic appeal similar to the AG5 jacket. I am 186lbs standing 6'3" with a 34" waist line and 34" inseam. I went with the AG4 36" pants with the 35" inseam to give me comfort as an overpants and they still fit my 34" waist with a belt. With the ability to zipper the AG5 jacket to the AG4 pants just completes the look.

Protect is great and with Cordura in all the right places you will not be left out to dry. There hip protector pockets already filled with foam and the foam can be replaced with CE rated protection of your choice. The knee armor is CE rated and fits well when placed in the proper slot for your body frame in the riding position. I don't even notice the armor when walking around and that is while wearing my Alpinestars Ridge Air boots. The fact that you can zip the AG4 pants to the AG5 jacket cannot be understated. I wear a belt with these pants and I employ the zipper to ensure that the AG5 jacket will not ride up in a slide.

I compared these to the Alplinestars Oxygen air over pants. These are slightly more expensive, but have much higher build quality. In comparison, they have more features and fit better as an over pant. I wear a 32x32 pant and the 32 size was too tight as an over pant. If I didn't wear jeans under it, it fit fine. So despite what the video review says, I'd go a size up if you plan to wear jeans underneath.

Purchased because they are true overpants with full length zippers from near-ankle to thigh, which permits donning them without needing to remove my boots. Step right in, zipper up, and secure the Velcro closures and you're ready to roll. I bought these to where over cargo shorts in hot weather & have been pleased so far. I had to purchase a size larger (32) than I wear (31) since they are only offered in even men's sizes. Otherwise, I'm very satisfied.

I followed the chart exactly and measured. The pants fit great on the waist but the length was for someone of around 6'3 meanwhile I'm 5'10. In pictures on here the pants look nice but in person you look like a total dork.

I replaced a cheap off-brand pair of vented pants with the AG4's and i only wish i had done it sooner. I wear them primarily as over-pants for my commute to work, (i ride at least 150 days a year) The full-length side zippers are very helpful for getting them on and off without contorting myself into leg-cramping, balance-challenging, awkward positions. All of the adjustments to fit them to my body make them very comfortable to ride in. The inclusion of the over/under rain pant will extend my use of them a lot farther into the fall before i break out my cold weather gear. They are so well built that I expect to get years of riding in them.
