...Does anybody make pants that might have a heat shield on the inside leg to prevent getting them melted....
Tourmaster Sentinel with Nomex is another.

HD Overpass II for me. Great suit, not as pricey as the gore-tex, but imho, they work dry! Rode through several big thunderstorms while in the Smokeys, no drips, no runs, no...well you get the picture.

The biggest drawback is their 'packability'. But using those 'vacuum space bags' I managed to get the wife's and my suits, gloves and her footgear in one of those large T-Bag roll bags.

I have the First Gear pants also. BUT, WHATEVER YOU BUY. Try putting them on in a hurry. Sometimes what looks good is a PITA to put on. Wife and I got caught in a cloud burst, She has HD and I have First Gear, Both are not easy to put on when damp. My suggestion is try looking for some pants that has zip up legs like chaps.

I just received my Elite Tourmaster Rain pants from Motorcycle Superstore yesterday and wore them to work this morning and they are excellent.

To all of you who replied thank you. At least nowIknow that there are rain pants out there that have heat shields on the inside leg.
