J’en avais déjà 2 (bordeau et marron). Très content !
I am 172 cmts tall and ordered a medium. perfect waist but too long and baggy. Knee protector under the knee, like the guy on the picture ... I changed for a small, and perfect length but way too small on the waist. So i took away the elastic band from the waist, and now i have the perfect trousers. Now waiting for Mons to release another color next year to buy another pair. They r windproof enough to ride 20 kms per day on my el bicycle with temps from 0 to 15. Also perfect hiking trousers or pyjamas. I live on them. And the cargo pocket holds things in place.
They look like they will be hard wearing but I have not worn them enough yet to know for sure.
This is a would like to be a technical fleece pants. It is all synthetic. I buy Mons because they have the best wool products. If I wanted a fleece pants I would go and buy something from North Face. Please stay true to your merino wool.
I bought the Decade pants a while ago and love them. When they came out with the updated version I bought a different color in the same size and they weren't the same, much tighter in the waist. The old pair still fit great! The new pair is sized down.
