They got removed from the website because people would often get the wrong size and demand a return, since you can't make a pair of trousers in the wrong size work & they really do have to be perfect, unlike jackets. And I think many people realized they didn't really need a pair of leather pants after the courier delivered the box. I can understand that too and that's why it took me years to reach the decision to buy a pair. :D

Aero still accepts orders on these from returning customers or if you're absolutely sure about the size. I lucked out with mine as I didn't know how they run but apparently the size 32 is perfect.

I don't think that the bike makes that much of a difference when it comes to these jeans styled leather pants so... I dunno. I always wanted a pair but also never felt like I can pull it off but later on I realized that either nobody cares or that I see a LOT of stuff on the street that's considered normal that I wouldn't want to be caught dead wearing. Like shorts. Why are shorts okay and leather pants such a big deal is something I'll never understand.

Shorts are not ok if you are above 12!
(unless sports are involved...)

I never wear shorts, not even on the hottest summer days. I'm mostly wearing my 25oz IHs no matter what. And if it gets really hot close to 30°C then I bring out my 11oz LVC jeans.

And my friends and family are moaning "You should wear shorts, and why on earth you are wearing boots?! Isn't it hot?!" And it really isn't that hot, and they offer me a natural cover from the sun.

Wearing a new piece of a garment is just a mind game that have to be over come, then it gets easier and after awhile the norm. Had the same problem with cowboy boots and leather jackets in the beginning. But now thats all I wear.

But I don't think I'm still ready for those leather pants:D they are on another level.

The Bison grains like hell, and straight out of the box. It would be nice to see how it evolves in 10 or 20 years. But I would say it is going to look mostly the same, in the good way.

The bison is like Sean Connery in his 20's he looked like 50 and then he stopped aging.:D

Yes, out of the box.
