    Comments about Novara Headwind Bike Pants - Men's:

    Super product. ready to buy another pair for this winter of riding in western NC. Not too tight so that you don't get cold knees as with other tights. able to wear more under them if needed. great to X-C ski in. You wear shorts under them for padding, which I feel is better than tights with built in padding.

      Comments about Novara Headwind Bike Pants - Men's:

      Picked these up in the store. Normally I fit a large, but the mediums were a perfect fit for me.

      They work very well in cold weather, preventing the wind from chilling your legs, but the back side is breathable, so they do not overheat.

      The fit is very comfortable and the zipper cuffs work well.

        Wore these for the first time with the temp about 50 degrees. Felt perfectly comfortable with no chills or sweat. I like the fit as they are not tights and they fit snug. No complaints.

          Commute 29 miles daily in Chicago in all types of weather. These do the trick, although my 11-year old daughter thinks they look dorky. Need to wear padding underneath

          Comments about Novara Headwind Bike Pants - Men's:

          Windproof! Windproof is key to winter biking, and these pants provide just that. Front side is windproof, while the back side allows your leg to breath. For additional warmth wear long-underwear underneath.

          Would have been nice to have a couple front pockets. It has rear pockets, but those aren't so great to fill if your going to be sitting on a bike.
