My riding pants bunch up behind me knees and chafe. Tips?

[Josh1234]

Yeah, my knee-pits get nice and red after a ride, and the irritation is pretty bad. I try and smooth out the pants-leg so they're all the way down, but as I ride & bend my knee, the material bunches up and makes me

Tips?

Wear longer shorts underneath the pants? My standard leather pants bunch up in the crotch nice and tight but nothing around the knees. My 1-piece suit has the fancy stretchy fabric on the back of the knees so I certainly don't have a problem there, just the crotch area again...something seems disproportional here

Iron Pony has winter and summer weight Alpinestar under-pant on clearance right now.

They fit tight like a polypropylene. 2 price and 1piece available.

Many wear this under leathers. Get you some.

or check out walmart for the starter brand stuff. its pretty cheap and works very well, keeps you nice and cool/dry during the hot days

I picked up a set of winter weight. Prolly need to go get the summer weight too.

I wanna say the A* bottoms were under $40. Maybe $35. Can't remember.

Ride naked, but seriously the 1pc undersuit i got from stg is badass

Anti monkey butt powder. Hardware stores carry it as well as rite-aid. Its made to minimize chafing.

I have a feeling I'm going to run into this issue with my new joe rocket summer pants. Tried them on but have yet to ride in them

hmmm wonder if they will still have the A* stuff left by the time i get down to cbus next

They should have plenty. They did last week when I was there.

[Bad324]

even in fat man sizes??!

[Mykill]

Yes. Im pretty sure I saw a couple XXL pants and not sure on shirts....

[Bad324]

if there under layer sizes are anything like normal sizes i might be able to pull of the xxl. Really all i need are pants, I have several UA shirts

[Mykill]

I think I bought XL pants last week? Cant remember. They stretch pretty good and actually are fairly comfy. Debating on the shirt or the cold gear just cuz.
