Nice! Sounds like your son is probably harder on bike pants than I am but the Andean Trails is definitely a tougher material than the FORBEMK. And cheaper too so that helps!
I have actually ridden the Andean Trails pants in 30 degree weather... they don't have much insulation but the activity kept me warm enough. My recommendation would be to add a base layer under something like the Andean Trails or a standard MTB pant (like a fleece pant or sweatpants) and you should be good and won't need to buy a pair of pants just for colder weather.
I have not worn a medium but the size large is a decent fit for me. I would say they must run somewhat small given the Large is stated to fit 36 waist. They are not particularly baggy on me either.
So no denier 600 or stuff with abrasion resistance? I looked into dirtbike pants, but they add extra weight in the inside leg because of engine heat. So this is not the best option for a mountain bike or scooter. Im still considering the Fox F16 though
Loving the content variety. Keep it up dude
Thanks so much Jared! I’ve got one I worked pretty hard on coming up!

Thanks man!
I will have to give the Andean Trail Pants a try. I bought a couple pairs of the FORBEMK for my son and he tore them up quick.

Wish I saw this before I just bought Specialized Demo pants. Aweseome vid!
Thanks!
Whats wrong with the Specialized Demo pants? I was thinking of getting a pair but now I'm not sure
The price, could have saved a few bucks is all. Also, they dont fit a Galaxy S22 in the pockets @@kalemollon1641
Check out the Wrangler ATG Joggers
I second these! Sometimes adjusting knee pads can be a little tricky with them but overall can’t beat $30 pair of pants
I think you should try spandex roadie shorts this summer 😄
So supportive!!
Get this man some subs
Give me the subs! I want the subs! 😂 thank you!
Could you recommend something for riding in 30 degree weather, windy, but just in the neighborhood, no trails. I'm still starting out.

My 2pence worth.
1. Endura humvee ( built to last)
2. Nukeproof black line
3. Fox ranger pants
Nice! Thanks man I’ll check them out too!
Bellingham MA?
I am near Bellingham, Washington (actually live close to Seattle)
So Andean you went with large even though you run a 32 inch waist?? Website shows large is for 36 inch waist. Do they run small??

Oh nice dude. Good input! Yeah I don’t have anything on here that is super abrasion resistant.
No Endura ?
I've never tried them myself! They look solid though. Have you worn them?
prices doubled in 8 months.. ugh, costs just as much for gear as it does for upgrades
Hobbies are money pits for sure!!
Best quality zippers are made by YKK.
Definitely true.
