So it must have size XL. Here everything is good (and below the knee still tight). Just a little too long, it is for my 186cm total size. But I can deal with it or live.
Overall, the pants are well made. The seat cushion comfortable and in my opinion not oversized (I drive MTB).
The material is internally equipped with fleece and the outside typical smooth.
An exit at 10-15 degrees, I found very pleasant. But I believe in cooler winter temperatures or I would have recourse in addition to my windproof trousers Gore. Weil is just comfortable.
I have the Gonso trousers but not bought for the dead of winter. Because I'm different equipped.
The only thing I worry something currently are preparing the seams that border the material laminations at the knees. Because the legs are as described above, genuine cut very narrow and the material so flexible is not as functional underwear, the seams are just very stressed during bending.
If the pants holding two years, I would at the current price of 39.95 but more than zufieden.
Because for that you get a top-functioning long cycling pants.
In short: buy recommendation.
But remember, ye give "thick calves" take rather a number larger than usual.
