[penfold]

being of near hobbit build, as most people on can tell you, standard stretch airs are just fine.

My zip area just tore out of my stretch airs, not the zip but the whole thing and all i did was kneel down!!!!!

they are amazing trousers though and definetly better than the stihls, if just for the material wear.

Do you have to get the 7cm added in the waiste?

[Mark Bolam]

Stretch Airs are miles ahead in this race so far.

 

I'm quite glad in a way, because I have given Stihl far too much money over the years and they still utterly refuse to make a decent bar cover for the bigger saws.

 

I'll just break the news to the wife that there will be no holiday this year because I want to buy a pair of Stretch Air.

You could rename the thread, Stretch air vs. Ryan air?

Definately Stretch Airs, my type c's have lasted nearly a year now with only minor problems to the crotch area, the hi-flex seemed to fall apart after a few months, a false economy I reckon. Just purchased a pair of Stretch Air Gladiators for the summer, much cooler and not so baggy also the material on the front seems bomb proof but time will tell I guess! Also very comfy to climb in, if your into climbing in class a's that is:blushing:

[Heads up]

Worn the hi flexs since they came out the pair im on now are still in really good nick surprisingly and i do like them. BUT i got a pair of Stretch air As about a month ago and really rate them so far. Do miss not having a back pocket though. Got mine from gustards they seem to be the cheapest...still bloody expensive though.

i have had mine for 3 years now, i do swap between them and my singles protection combat gypo ones but tbh i prefer the stretch airs even on warm days.
