I would go for a second hand pair of Rukka ones from ebay. I had to buy new but there the best I have ever tried for sure.

ive got a pair of GI trs and they are brilliant.

had them for the past 2-3 years and have never ever missed a beat.
comfy, warm, dry, and in the summer nice and cool thanks to the 2 removable liners and the big zip open vents in the thighs.

i ride all year and dont have a car so these get worn day in day out so have had some pretty severe abuse over the years and not one thread has come loose or ripped.

really cant say how good the trs are, i always used to have rukka suits and saw these on the GP legends website after my all road trs split in the groin for the 3rd time. gave them a punt and have never looked back!

defo worth the cheap price over a pair of rukka in my opinion.

I got some GI pants off Grand Prix Legends from my Mrs for Xmas (Thank you...!) and they are really good. Warm, waterproof, and comfy. Only gripe for me is that they don't zip up fully when you wear them over MX boots, you have to rely on the velcro tab at the bottom. With less chunky boots, they're fine. I'd say "buy them"!!
