Armoured textile trousers for people with longer legs

[Beans]

Anyone with reasonably long legs able to recommend good textile armoured trousers please? Ideally from personal experience.

I'm getting a wee bit tired of my RST ones riding up to just above the tops of my boots when I'm on the bike.

Thanks in advance

I've a 36" inside leg and got tired of wearing badly fitting gear especially trousers.

How much are you prepared to pay?

Rukka do 3 leg lengths. look for C3 in any description. (or long)

for best prices look at second hand or from non official sellers. or from the EU.

you can also look at Halvarssons, Lindstrands, Klim. Dane.

Sportsbikeshop have LONG as a filter when searching for trousers. which is very useful.

I have a 36" inside leg and have a pair of Furygan Duke textile trousers. If anything, they may still be a bit long. They are good but I have had issues with both zips on the bottom of the legs. Hopefully, they will have resolved the quality of the zip by now.

Much as I would like to be able to afford them, trousers for £800+ are way too much. I would pay up to £200

I paid a little more than that.. but not much more. https://tinyurl.com/tmoq8na I tend to snap up bargains as and when they appear.. especially if the bargain is due to a change of style. which with Rukka happens every few years. Was a thread only recently about heavily discounted gear.

£800 is top of the range.. and fine if you can justify that amount. But, even their bottom of the range is a lot better than some of their comparably priced competitors.

buy once - cry once.

but anyway.. a few things i now insist on. Goretex. D30 armour. outlast. YKK zips.its more than a pain if you buy expensive gear and they cut corners using cheap zips.
