Lined jeans for cooler/cold weather.
so, i been thinkin about getting a lined pair of jeans for riding in colder weather. i'm not so much worried about wet cause will do everything in my power to avoid the rain. my main concern is the wind. yeah i know, get some chaps but i don't think i ready to go there yet (besides, i am sure i will look like a complete idiot in them, but eventually).
so anyway, i'm looking at maybe the Carhartt stuff.
jeans-fleece lined
jeans-flannel linedduck pants-flannel lined
Dickies Stuff
jeans
upland game jean
the question is: which is better for cutting the wind, fleece or flannel?
whaddyall think about the upland game pants, think they will do any good?
do yall have any other suggestions?

RE: Lined jeans for cooler/cold weather.
I have a flannel lined pair and a thinsulate lined pair of jeans . Bought one and liked it so much I got another .
( I lied , actually the wife got them for me I can't hardly stand to clothes shop . )
bought both at the local Gander mountain , the thinsulate is a wrangler and the flannel is a Dickies .
Both are nice and toasty for Illinois winters . The thinsulate Wranglers are by far the warmest but also much heavier . You may be using suspenders with them.
I just got them last winter and I havn't had a chance to try them out on the bike yet but I will shortly .
Cabelas , LL Bean , Gander Mountain are a few that sell them . Cabelas link LL Bean link
I use chaps at the begining and the end of the season and wouldn't be without them .

RE: Lined jeans for cooler/cold weather.
I just picked up a pair of flannel lined jeans from LL Bean. Something to wear
riding on the weekends when it's not too cold. I also just picked up a pair of
the Firstgear HT II overpants for commuting to work. I haven't worn them
yet, but they seem to be good quality. These are insulated and waterproof.

Waterman,
ICON Motorclothes make an awesome set. They are called barrier pants. Fleece lined with a windbreaker material in between. Also they are gussetted in the crotch which makes ridin real comfy!

Rode with Carhartt flannel type last night...worked pretty good on a very windy 40 degree ride. But man, do I need better gloves!

I use flannel lined jeans and chaps when it's good and cold. Those Icon Barrier pants look like they are worth a look. Gloves are a real problem for me. I can't find a pair that are warm, windproof, that are not too thick. HD windshielders are pretty good. Maybe with a liner of some kind.

RE: Lined jeans for cooler/cold weather.
I have flannel lined Carhartts for the sorta cold rides, fleece lined Wranglers for the cold rides, and insulated bibs for the really cold rides. The flannel Carhartts are my favorite but they won't be enough for less than 50 degrees if you'll be on the bike for any length of time.
