    Such a funny discussion on sizing. Great review. One of my motivations for buying my suit was the waterproof outer layer. I remember going into a service station in the far north previously. I was dry on the outside. But a lake developed around me as the outer layer drained out on the floor. The staff weren’t too impressed

      Yep the whole waterproof on the inside has so many draw backs. Big thing for me is when camping where do I put the wet suit. At least now I just shake it off!

    Good review, im looking at buying this pant to for longdistance touring, is there a longterm review? Pants holding up to abuse?
    Their sizing chart seem a little off, Can i ask what hip size measurement you have for 32T ?

      No longer have the pants. They started leaking water quite bad after a year of I would call light use. Contacted mosko moto it is a common issue apparently. They offered me a full refund or an upgrade to the newer version which they told me does a better job at keeping the water out although not 100%. I took the refund as I mainly bought them for the waterproofness.
      At the time I had these I had a 30" waist and have roughly 30" inseam. The waist sizing was fine it was the space around my calves and balls that was the issue. With the 32 that I went with I had to wear a belt as the waist was quite big on me but everywhere else was correct

      @@MOTODANS I see, i understand the waterproofness issue with a 580 euro pant, I got a chance to get a demo pant them at 50% discount so maybe i can forgo that with rainpants in heavy rain, i like the venting and superfabric. Hopefully fit will be better for me with a modest ballsack :D

      Waterproofing was the only issue I had once I got correct sizing it was great otherwise. Like I said the newer version is apparently improved so hopefully it does you well. If I got an offer of 50% off I would probably buy another to be honest.

    Really helpful. I agree that Mosko's service is the best. I have a bunch of their gear and am always looking for an excuse to get more.

    Wow 😳 I think that’s the first time I’ve heard about the lack of room for cold weather layering. I was thinking that these would be the perfect RTW riding pants. I guess I’ll have to keep on looking, bummer.

      Depends alot on the armour you wear and you size. For me with my armour which I don't think is that big I could squeeze in a pair of thermals and that would be about it. They are quite tight around the knees. If I wore smaller armour then maybe you could get more on.

    Balls! 😂🤣😂🤣 Great review. I’m looking at these, and wondering how you like them 2 years into owning them?

    • @MOTODANS
      @MOTODANS  Год назад

      Hey, i actually no longer have them! After a year of ownership they started leaking quite badly around the balls! Mosko said it was a common issue and offered me the updated version ( which they say improves this ) or a refund. I took the refund as they couldn't 100% guarantee waterproofness which was the main reason I bought them. If I have to put over trousers on I would rather put them over a pair of $200 pants rather than a pair of $900 pants

    Proud to say that I've never watched another video before where there was anywhere near this much talk about balls... lol. Sounds like they are a little "short waisted". Thanks for the info.

    • @MOTODANS
      @MOTODANS  2 года назад +1

      😂 Yes they are short waisted very unusual in my experience. I have since returned these pants to mosko after they started leaking in light rain and currently on the look out for the perfect adv pant.

    I don't like how tight they are around the boots. This part really sucks!

      I didn't have an issue in this area what boots do you have? I since returned these to mosko for a refund after a year of use they started leaking water real bad. Still looking for a good replacement. Still use the jacket it is still performing as it should

    Take care of those balls. Might have to get a cricketers ball box to go with the knee protectors etc. LOL Good review and I like the fact that they offer free postage for returns. Take care
