My "fitting a jacket" thread has turned into a "leather pants are safer than jeans" thread, so I may as well run with it.
Fillmore, Retro, and others have convinced me to start looking at leather pants, so I have some questions for anybody who cares to chime in.
If I am to wear leathers, I want something that won't make me look like an alien. I would also like something that I could be comfortable in after I get to wherever I'm going- I'm not going to wear tight leather riding pants around all day. So that pretty much rules out Dainese (I have been considering a Dainese jacket). Vanson seems to have a fairly wide selection of leather pants, including street-type leathers and leathers that can go over jeans.
Does anybody have anything to say about leather pants that don't scream "gay bar on wheels" (as Retro so aptly put it). I will just not be comfortable being Mr. Leather all day- and I'll be hot as hell!. I know some people stash their work clothes at work or bring them with them, or whatever, but that won't work for me. I need something that I can either wear all day long or that can be worn over regular clothes.
Any ideas?
