Great bike pant

If you are looking for a great cold weather fat biking pants these are it. I’m on my second pair. Love the stretch material and the mobility in the knees. The scuff guard is great for protecting from the chain and chain ring. All in all I recommend these pants.

Well constructed..but with some problems.

I have 2 earlier pairs of Cirque pants and they are very well constructed. I just received the Cirque 3 pants, and these are also well made except for the logos on the pants. They are iron on and not embroidered. It makes me more reluctant to buy future Outdoor Research products if they are going to start cutting costs on such high dollar items.

Great but!

I love the features,color options, and the fact that they come in a short length which is not that usual in outdoor apparel. But as others have said, the fit is a little odd, with the crotch being really long and the hips and butt being too baggy,,and I have an ample rear and thighs.

Weird Fit

Crushes my groin, but still have a lot of slack in the waist and thighs and some drape in the seat. Quite annoying considering I like most other things about the pant. Good flex, I like the leg opening and feature set there. I do prefer integrated belts over Velcro side tabs, although this buckle does bring concern over longevity with how slim and flimsy it feels.

Strange fit, rise is too long.

Great that these are offered in short length. Thick high quality fabric and good stretch. However, I was disappointed by the fit through the crotch. The rise is way too long proportional to the leg length. This means that unless I pull the waist way up to 2-3” above my bellybutton, every time I lift my knees for a step, my movement is restricted by the crotch of the pants (which sits midway down my thighs). Not ideal, since I wanted these for ice climbing and will be high stepping regularly. Might have to try them with suspenders…

Amazing!

These are incredible! Great for water ice/alpine and colder weather hiking. Thank you guys for making them in all 3 lengths as most have abandoned this with the attitude of "just live with it". Also thank you for sewing, I now hate glue!
