Aaron Salinas,  CA Shift Havoc My first pair of riding pants, very happy with them. I only wish they were maybe an inch longer. I am 6'0'' about 170lbs. I would recommend going a couple sizes large on them, especially if you plan on wearing pants underneath. I wear size 30 jeans, originally bought a 32 but they were too tight. Exchanged them for a 34 and they fit great.

Aaron Salinas,  CA Shift Racing - Havoc Pants My first pair of biking pants and I'm very satisfied. I would recommend going a couple sizes large though if you plan on wearing pants underneath them. I wear size 30 jeans. I originally ordered a 32 but it was tight. Exchanged them for a 34 and it is great. They'd fit perfect if I was 2 inches shorter. Long enough when standing, but when riding they are a touch short, I am 6'0” though.

Al Cody Vancouver,  BC Havoc Pants I've been looking for riding pants that are not pure sport bike but offer good looks, protection and at a price I can afford. The Havoc seem to be that. I am very happy with the quality, design and finish. I am 6'1" 180 lbs. 36x34 pant size. The 36 Havoc is pretty close. The waist is adjustable giving a wide range of adjustment. I might be tempted to say a 34 would have been a closer fit for me. With the waist band up tight it works with a light shirt tucked in. Should also work great with thick shirt on a cool day. Inseam measures 32 1/2" Just about right. Another inch would be perfect for riding. For an all around good looking motorcycle pant these fill the bill.

Mike Kirkland,  WA Very good riding pants from Shift These pants are very good and well worth the money. The pants have typical, above average quality and fit from SHIFT. I like the blend of leather and fabric. It makes the pant very versatile and easy to wear often. I like the waist adjusters. I have not seen this type of set up before. You pull a strap on both sides of the pant to tighten the waist, if necessary and then just attach it to the matching Velcro strip on the waist of the pant. It works very well and holds it place, no matter how active you are on the bike or otherwise. I usually wear a 34 waist and inseam. I ordered a 34 and the fit is perfect; typical for SHIFT.

Dominic Colorado Springs,  CO Shift Racing - Havoc Pants I've been very pleased with this product. I'm 5'10" and 165 pounds and the size 34 is perfect. Nice feature is adjustable velcro waist--great feature for after meal riding. Only complaint (4 on features rating) is the bottom of the pants don't close tightly around my boots but that is a minor situation. These pants are very stylish and comfortable and easily worn in public without looking weird. Hopefully I'll never test their road protection capabilities but the pants seem solid and have functional protection as you would expect.

Ian Aspen,  CO I love these pants The quality, the construction, the comfort and the fit are all top notch. They have a designer jean like cut, low rise waist and extended length, so they are comfortable to walking around as well. The fit is true and the waist band rides below the hip bones. I'm a 32X32, 5'11" 180 lbs, and the fit it perfect, snug the way I like. If you like roomier fit, these may not be the pants for you.

Brian Greenfield Center,  NY Shift Racing - Havoc Pants With a 32/34 waste and inseam I have a tough time being fitted in motorcycle pants. This is the first pair that fit me without being big in the waist or short in the inseam. Also, the knee armor is still over my knees when riding. These are excellent over the boot pants and look great.

AJ Singh Charlotte,  NC killer pants These pants are fighter/street look and I love them. I can wear my leather boots and these pants to run errands. Easy to walk around in as well. The side pockets are hard to get into while riding, but that's the case with most pants. Plus they don't look funny on you when you're off the bike and look great while you are on the bike. The quality is awesome. The fit is do-able, but it depends on your physique, my knee guards sit just a TAD bit low on the knee when I am riding. Other than that I love these pants. Temp range I have ridden in is 50 to 80 degrees. Was wearing a base layer when I was riding in the 50's.

Josh Eudy Troutman,  NC Great pants I love these pants. They fit really well (and have waist adjustments so I can let them out a little when I eat too much). Another reviewer mentioned that the knee pads were too low, and off the bike or on a cruiser, they probably are. Once your legs are bent on a street or sport bike, the pads are in perfect position. Wish they had hip padding, but other than that, they are great.

Kevin Horner Carbondale,  IL Excellent! These are great pants. The quality is first rate, the fit is nice, but remember your inseam, there's no way to hem these. Belt loops would be nice. These pants will zip right into most Shift jackets. The fabric areas flow nicely. Also, you get leather pants without the cheesy leather look. These look and perform great.
