Cordura etc trousers ...

So fount of all knowledge Is it normal practice to use the trousers of
cordura two piece suits as overtrousers or as trousers, ie do you wear jeans
underneath or not?

My missus wears hers as under trousers. I am not so sure, mind.

I don't know, for the UK I prefer cordura kilts and to go regimental /
military practice.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Watch#Anecdotes

In Dagoland, underwear with (air temperature ranging from 35 degrees down to
0 degrees Celsius) vented cordura, vented cordura with wind stopping
membrane, cordura, cordura with thermal lining. But never seen jeans under
cordura.

 

I use mine as overtrousers when commuting since work trousers are
relatively thin. It's not especially comfortable wearing them over
jeans, though, especially with the lining in. Still do it on occasion,
mind.

 

I've never worn them without undertrousers although the guy at Fraser's said
either way was possible.

I'd believe him rather than me.

 

depends. I've done both.

And I've never worn anything under them.

 

No jeans underneath mine. Thermals only.

Commando?

 

No, BMW.

 

Depends on what you're doing after the ride. If you're going to a mate's and
want to sit around for an hour, it's trousers on first then the Codura
things. You can take them off without causing fainting spells if you're
wearing something under them, or you can just be "Family Guy" and sit around
in your skivvies or sweat the day away.

I had the same thought but decided I really didn't want to know...

 

'Pends how cold, in the winter I wear something under them. Its a bit
tight but it's ok, and as someone mentioned down there --v if I intend
taking them off. Otherwise, just plonk them on.

So not really a very helpful answer there I'm afraid.
