    Fat Bugger Pants

    Hi does anyone know where I can get large size riding pants, I went into Motomail and the largest 6XL will not go over my hips. Now I am a fat bugger but most of my pants a 4XL when I buy them.
    I would like the Cordura type with armour.
    Thanks

    Otherwise ask Cycletreads... I know they've had some big arse (haha, didn't intend to make a pun, I didn't!) jackets, so presume they'd have some pants (or could order).

    Its dependant on manufacturer, I wear 3-4XL mostly but like you some manufacturers (mostly I find european brands) seem the be 2-3 sizes larger for the equivalent.
    OTher problem I find is the leg length, by the time I get the right waist size, the bloody legs are 10cm too long in many cases, making the knee armour sit in the wrong place.
    I'd reckon for every 8 pairs I try (different brands/styles) only one ends up feeling a reasonable fit.

    Its a Hyosung,
    Weight has nothing to do with its performance.



    Anyways, I have as similar issue, Just make sure you try different brands on, Im an XL in one brand and a 5XL in another.

    Mind you it depends if I had lunch before hand or not..
