I just got some olive green SIP ones. Very comfortable with a great range of movement.

I do really like my breatheflex and will recommend them on comfort and manoeuvrability... The crotch has gone on mine and the zip for the pocket is coming apart and they're not 12 months old yet

I've just got some sip innovation trousers after last two pairs of sip I've had have both done two years, shockingly light I put them on an wondered if they are actually chainsaw protective!! Cooler to wear than jeans, technology has come on loads since I started!!

I recommend you go and try them all on. Theres a whole bunch of good trousers on the market these days and most of them are pretty good quality. Its the fit that decides if they are right for you IMO. The new arbortecs look smart. One of my mates has them, another tried a pair on and they sag round the crotch, he is just the wrong dimensions for them. I have always found myself between sizes in many brands, thats why I stick to brands where the fit suits my physique rather than shopping by brand or style.

Theres always complaints on trousers with crotches going, zips going. I believe some of this is down to the fit on the individual as much as it is faulty workmanshop by the manufacturer

Great advice...take heed

How do you guys get on if the nearest supplier is not really easy to get to in terms of how far they are away from your location?

 

Arguably I could go to FR Jones but it is a train trip there.
