| I just ordered a pair of the Aerotech knickers last night. The fabric seems Schoeller-esque, which is good for 3-season use. I’ll report back once I get some miles on them.

I was just searching to see if Outdoor Research had brought back their Ferrosi 3/4 pants (no luck) and came across these Aerotech knickers. They look decent and have a fairly low price. I may try these out.

I have quite a few pairs of old Rapha and Chrome knickers that are in good enough shape for use but new knickers are always worth grabbing while available. Come to think of it I do have a brand new pair of Chrome Loop knickers in my stash. I should have done the same with a pair of Rene Herse knickers…

I have two pair of the Rene Herse knickers, size medium, that are worn nearly through on the right thigh due to saddle rub. I am not a tailor, so I don't know if they can be repaired, but they're yours for the cost of shipping. I can provide pictures off list. Tom in Alexandria, VA

The cheaper/better knickers are here: 33,000ft Men's Hiking Golf Capri Pants, currently at 20% off for $28.79 each. Cyclist black + 5 lighter greys/blues/olives. 96% poly/4% spandex; strangely, hand-wash only (? that's not normal handling for any all-synthetic fabric I've ever seen). UPF 50+; handy for us palefaces in sunny climes.
The presence of deep, zippered pockets gives them a key advantage over a pair of long cycling pants I use often - a pair of double-knit women's pants from Giro that I got from Missing Link when they were closing the separated repair shop eight or nine years ago. The material gives that lycra muscle compression that makes us olds feel better (without looking like stretchy stuff) and women's size 12 fit this men's size 35/32 just fine, but there are two fake pockets in front and one shallow zippered pocket in back - totally inadequate for around-town riding. I might get a pair of knee sox and try these things; a $30 experiment won't enrage me if it doesn't pan out.

My current favorite are the wolfskin 3/4 shorts: https://blog.piaw.net/2023/01/mens-carpis.html
They're insanely expensive and the blog post I wrote above includes a link to a cheaper (and in some ways better, with zippered pockets) available on Amazon.
