The sizing is quite weird. I bought M and L and ended up choosing M (I’m 1,85m approx and about 82kg, take about a 32-34” leg in jeans depending on brand, 33 or 34” waist). In L the waist would have been far too big for me. In M the waist is right but the leg is just about long enough.
Pack size: M can roll up into about the size of a 500ml tinny.

Talk to me about the Zoa rain pants.
Had to panic buy a 17EU pair from Decathlon before S7 and they lasted a whole 1.5 days of pissing rain off-road before the arse fell out of them (riding a prong-nose Adamo probably didn't help, the saddle cover was also shredded). But they did keep my legs mostly clean and warm. Buy cheap buy twice...
Anyway, I now want some proper ones that aren't super flappy and maybe aren't boil-in-a-bag.
My biggest concern really is pack space - how small do these squash down to? I'll obviously be in the bigger sizes XL or XXL so don't want my saddle bag entirely filled with rain pants.
