I'm trying to decide between these two pants. They both seem pretty similar. I prefer the styling of the Dainese but the Alpinestars aren't bad either. The Alpinestars seem like a better value as they include a liner and some hip padding for less money. However the Dainese brand is awesome and they may be better for riding on hot days and I am located in Southern California. I had a pair of Icon Arc pants but they were WAY too baggy. I'm looking for something that fitts tighter. Please help if you have experience with either. Thanks.

Fix your links.

 

Try these:

I guess you can't link from Kneedraggers but there is a lot more useful information on their website.

 

I like them both, but I would vote for the Alpinestars

 

Went with the Dainese Drake Air because of all the positive reviews that I have come across. And hopefully I'll be able to get a Dainese jacket at some point to zip into them. I will give a review when I receive them in a week or so.
