    Default Cheap fleece pants for barn chores?

    As much as I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Irideon Windpro breeches, I really need to refrain from wearing them to do barn chores. Anybody know where I can pick up some reasonably priced (preferably under $40) fleece "tights" or fitted pants to layer underneath my windpants? They must be warm, and preferably a polar fleece type fabric.

    Target should have some in the athletic wear section. They looked like a baggier fit (was in there yesterday looking at warm things to wear while running), but you may be able to go down a size or something.

    If you can find White Sierra power stretch pants, those are really nice (check campmor.com). And I think maybe Eddie Bauer makes "expedition weight" fleece long underwear. The bottoms are like tights. Sierra Trading Post may have some stuff too.

    These sound like what you want, though maybe a bit spendier: http://www.sierratradingpost.com/bla...colorFamily=27

    I bought men's heavyweight because the store had women's only in midweight. Tops are also available.

    powerstretch fleece pants are the best... there are tons of places that sell them. I got some at a tent sale at Fair Hill one year. I wish I could remember the name of the shop...

    ah, found it, fleececorner.com

    I had better luck by calling them than I did on their website, but that was a few years ago
