Looking for cold weather, waterproof over-pants THAT WONT MELT.

Aerostitch would be the Cadillac of this garment. They are very well made, virtually last forever but cost a lot. But you will stay dry, warm and the legs won't melt. I have not priced them in several years but the best I remember they will work to make you a good fit.

Dana Lee:
Thanks y’all, I’ll have to check them out.

Last year I was in a pinch and needed some cold weather pants quickly for an Iron Butt ride. I bought a pair of Bilt Storm 2 over pants. I'll be honest, I haven't tested the waterproofing and can't comment on that. Otherwise, they have been a killer bargain for less than 200 bucks.

Heavier material on the inner legs to prevent exhaust burn, removable quilt liner, and they zip far up the leg so they can be put on/taken off easily while still wearing boots. I've done a handful of Iron Butt rides with these pants down in the 20's. A heated layer, regular pair of jeans, and these pants work great. Obviously heated gear goes a long way but these pants still provide great wind protection and insulation even at 80MPH/25 degrees. If it's at least above freezing, wearing only jeans under these pants is fine, no heated gear needed.

My eventual plan was to get a nice pair of Klim pants. I am going to wait until these are worn out, they are doing fine.

How redneck are you willing to get? I have worn my arctic lined Carhartt bibs in 20 couple degree weather with only jeans and been fine. Brushed the pipe without melt. Can't rally attest to "waterproof" but, highly resistant. Worn many tines 4 wheeling in the snow and muck, never wet inside.
