Hi Jason, We received the Air8 pants this morning. My son has tried them on... and all I can say is wow! The fit is perfect. All the materials seem very high end - nice feeling, but seems very strong! The mesh panels on the legs are a great idea - so is the velcro fastener (the other brand of pants we have use a snap button which seems to need a lot of force to close, my son finds them frustrating). I'm blown away by how well made these pants seem to be. David's old race pants cost nearly double the price, but the Planett pants blow them out of the water! Well done on making such a great product! I'll make sure I spread the word about how great they are! Cheers, Danny
