So, SWMBO is after some protective trousers with hip and knee armour preferably for going pillion, mainly as she whinges that it's a wee bit cold at the moment, though to be fair, she would rather have some half decent protection if she came off. So, I have a pair of (not) oxford bonedry textile trousers that are 4xl apparantly and I have about a 46/47 inch waist and these are comfy with jeans on, she's tried on mine and they are too small, not by a lot but im pretty sure it doesnt look like a 5 xl would be comfy, so a 6xl is probably better for comfort. Problem is I can't find anywhere that does this size and they must be out there as there's loads of blokes (and some lasses) Ive seen on bikes that are bigger than me or her! So, anyone got any specific recommendations of where's good to check out nearish to bedford, and by nearish I mean a 40 - 50 mile radius to go and physically try some on? I know the supamoto where Loz works but Ive been in there before and am pretty sure they didnt cater for the larger built chaps and chapesses, heading down Luton way anyway tomorrow and I know there's at least one bike shop that way that may be worth a look while there but anyone got any other favourites / recommendations?
