Does anyone here use special pants? (lemmy.world)

I am mostly a commuter and just wear normal pants. Have been thinking about maybe getting a few special denim pants for riding, but they are quite expensive.

What do you all use? I do ATGAT everything else.

I have a pair of jeans with knee and hip pads. While I believe the stretch denim material helps keeping the pads in place, it also cuts off blood circulation on longer rides (around the knees). Got some cargo pants with protectionnow, which are wider and more comfortable. I don’t commute though, but want to to feel comfortable while having a coffee or lunch break during a ride…
