They are wrap around protection. You stay pretty dry in rain, they are warm for winter, little hot in summer but not terrible, i like em better than chaps cuz they arent as constricting. Suspender loops built in if you wear them.
Watch forestershop.com, i got them like half price i think, you could always call and see if they ever go on sale again
