Bought these for work (builder) I needed something fully waterproof, wind proof and breathable. They deliver on all three. They seem tough enough to withstand abrasive surfaces. Braces are very adjustable. I’m a slim 33inch waist and bought a Medium, fit perfect. If you have a bit of a belly I’d size up as the bib area is quite snug. There’s enough room in the leg to wear safety boots and wellies! I’ve worn them all day through heavy rain and sun and not a drop of moister on my under clothing.
