It's a lot of money but It Is Magic !!,..
I bought a pair of Carhartt Duck pants for riding.
They were only a hundred bucks, but they Will Actually Protect me when I go sliding down a gravel road on my ass.

I wear them all the time. Even when it's 34° with a humidex in the forties.
Cotton breathes and helps cool you.
Synthetic materials melt into your skin which makes road rash much worse.
I just have to keep moving and not pedal to stay cool.
The bugs will get you if you stop anyway.
There's another humidex in the 40's tomorrow.
I'm going riding.
I do feel bad about all the

's that were sacrificed to make my pants though.
I wash them in Dawn detergent to pay homage.
I don't have a problem spending the money on quality items, but I Hate paying for a name or something fashionable.
I've always been function over form.
My ebike is proof.
I don't care what it looks like.
I ride alone anyway.
I do my own thing.
I don't like crowds or what they do.
