Swrve winter softshell trouser

I think i'm the only person on this forum that doesn't like the Milawauke hoodie. I wanted one till I tried it but I found it too thick and warm for riding in this country, I think it's it's ugly and i don't like the shape. Actually I don't like hoods for riding anyway (they either act as parachutes when down or blinkers when up). I do need new winter riding jacket though... sorry, back to trousers.

I like mine, but I know what you mean. I doubt I would actually wear it again for cycling - unless it was a couple of miles downhill in sub-zero temperatures (where a drag-racing parachute and oven-like warmth may actually come in handy!).

The few times I have tried I've got far too hot and had to garotte myself with the hood cord to stop it billowing around. I must be doing something wrong...?
