Good Points

WIth the Antifreeze lining these trousers are nice in warm through the depts of winter.
Initially they were nice and waterproof.
Not too expensive though at the higher end of the mid range
They are actually breathable so if your walking around you don't get too hot and moist.


Bad Points

These trousers are not particually well made. The inner lining straps broke within a couple of weeks.
I now have a rip in the crotch which lets water in.
After a year or so the waterproof qualities have all but gone.


General Comments

Admittedly I have done nearly 40,000 miles in these trousers and overall I have been fairly happy with them. But and there always seems to be a but I think these are a bit too pricey for the quality that you actually get and basically I want a pair of water proof trousers that actaully stay waterproof but breathable at the same time.

Time to buy some Rukka trousers.

    I have a pair of these and I used them on two long haul trips down through Europe and around for running around in the Uk. The cut is not good and the circulation tends to cut off around important bits. The straps inside lasted me about a week. the linings were only good for artic conditions ( then they were great). The rest of the time I spent alternating from sweating buckets or getting wet from the rain coming in. I can't afford to buy another set yet but I wouldn't buy another set of Frank Thomas - in heavy rain I wear walking over trousers over the top of them but unfortunately this increases the sweat factor. Sorry but 2.5 is too generous for an expensive bit of kit.
