Default pants for the big guy

im lookin into getting some leather pants with knee sliders for extra protection and because i want to work on gettin that knee down next summer so i want to start shopping now. but heres my problem, im 6' 1" and about 230lbs and i got some big thighs from years of bein a catcher playing baseball and im not sure that the traditional leathers will fit comfortably without cutting off my circulation. Does anyone have any suggestions for me... maybe a brand that tends to run larger but not longer or any other suggestions would be well appreciated... thanks guys

i dunno but i know most pants run very true to their dress pant size. i have size 42 motogp apex pants and they are very comfortable. the calf section is a little tight but its fine now after breaking them in. another thing to get is a liner ( i bought adidas running pants. . .kinda like underarour but they didn'thave that) and it makes sliding the leathers on and off real easy
