Well I got the ventura air mesh pants today
and I had them side by side with the Caliber pants.
I was sure I was going to go with the mesh pants... but...
In short, I returned the mesh pants.
I'm keeping the Caliber pants. even if they are hot.
There was way too much mesh on the ventura pants.
padding for the hips was not as good as the caliber.
No padding for your lower back (a nice feature on the Caliber pants).
No padding anywhere else.
Next there is an issue with sizes with Tour master pants.
I'm 34-32 for jeans.
The 34 to 36 Caliber pants (L) were tight on my beer belly.
If you are 35 or 36, you better go with the XL.
They were the right length.
I ordered the mesh pants 36 to 38 (XL) to see how they fit.
They fit nicely on my beer belly, but they were way too long.
The mesh pants without the liner felt too flimsy.
So, finally, I decided to keep the Caliber pants and maybe just buy
riding jeans for summer.
That's the end of that.
