He said he had a problem with "leaking in the butt" That's a possibility, They keep it in, But can they keep it out?

Go to Mark Works warehouse and buy a set of Helly Hansen rubber pants. They cost about $60 ($CAN) and will not leak. They even come in an ugly forest green colour.

I went and bought lots of other stuff (belstaff, first gear and lots of other types) and nothing my friend works as well as these pants. They are bimb pants and have heavy duty rubber right up into the chest area.

I got really tired of using this fancy motorcycle stuff with the sealed seams and one day when I went to work and it looked like I pissed my pants (rainy day of course and those you have had this happen know what I'm talking about) I made it my mission to find something that works. Nothing I say again will work as well and be as cheap as these pants. Timothy

+1 for Helly Hansen!
The stuff they makes handles the most extreme conditions that icelandic nature can throw at you (by that I mean waiting for the bus for 45 minutes during a blizzard )

Ski pants.

I bought an inexpensive pair on sale at Dicks three years ago and I'm still using them. I think they cost me around $20 or $30.00.

I got a size just big enough to pull over my Draggin' Jeans. Since they are also windproof, I wear them all winter long.

Now, these aren't my got-caught-in-the-rain pants. Those are a vinyl pair I keep in the scooter. But If I'm figuring on rain or cold/wet weather riding, the ski pants are on.

Three cheers for Bleubelle! I was so tempted to post the same but since a chick did it I feel so much better.

Rubberized with electronically sealed seams, They are sure to get rid of the leaky butt syndrome. I'll know for sure when I wear them at work on monday.
