But you also also sook about the heat. Nothing to do with 80% of your riding being on Zwift, I’m sure.
Long pants for riding.

Another fan of the Dharco pants. They're a decent fit and the only pants long enough to avoid the 3/4 Capri pants look for me. I do have to get belt loops added to them which is a small annoyance.
Another really nice option are the Huck the world pants. They're a lighter fabric but still robust with great sizing aside from being too short for me. But I'm very long legged so don't rule them out.

I have a pair of Fox Defend pants and I really like them.
I've always been a shorts wearer and never thought of wearing pants and I bought them for some more rugged west coast riding and Maydena mud but found them really comfortable, so I wear them a lot in winter.
I even wore them in the Devils Cardigan gravel race.
They don't have a fly closure but that's no big deal and my only complaint is that the leg cuff is a bit on the small side and with any pant, knee pads are a bit of a pain.

Dharco now sell little pant extenders that you can sew on for extra length.

If you struggle finding pants that fit and need some length, this is our solution to be able to extend your pants. Inspired by Ben Cathro, and some friends in the Netherlands, we've made an extension piece. Select the same colour as your pants, or go wild and mix and match. We recommend taking...

I saw those. Thought they were a late April Fools joke but they're actually a decent idea.Dharco now sell little pant extenders that you can sew on for extra length.

They came out after I bought my black ones and they don't seem to have the colour of my other ones so no dice.

Thought the same when I saw them but makes sense for the super tall.

Hmmm... I work in 50°C heat daily.
Haven't done a Zwift ride in about 6 months but get the kudos ready, might happen in the next few weeks.

I just got these good in a Tassie winter breathable on the back of them. Block the air on the front very good stretch and movement. Emm me thinks the fabric won't handle contact with the ground but we will see. Big plus can wear them to shops or coffee after ride without looking like a advertisement for proffesional MTBing legend.

I bought a pair of these Fox defend knock offs a year ago once I worked out they put the ratchet closure on backward they weren't to bad abit cold when you first start riding to much vents me thinks. Have a taken a few falls in them they held up well. Bit to loose around the ankles though.
I also got some winter gloves. These are good in 5c and below temps. The gel pading in the palms is abit emm. They do have little holes in the palm for venting and very thin fleece lined.
