Outlier is now on their third iteration of their 4 Season OG pants in their effort to make the perfect pair of pants for on and off the bike.  I must say they look very nice.  I can’t tell if they have a gusseted crotch, which I am fond of when it comes to cycling specific clothing, though it may not be necessary when this Schoeller fabric is used.  It uses a “french seam” - I don’t know what that is, but the French are known for many things, like bread, kisses, and a little bike race that happens every year. The OG pants come in a variety of sizes, and they include a handy little reference card that breaks down how it will fit on your body- that’s nice if you can’t get into one of their retailers to try them on.  They fit similarly, but a little slimmer than Levis 501 jeans, so those that have tree stump legs like me might be left in the cold.  They have a 6 month return policy, and if you are just switching out size or color, return shipping is on them.

Outlier garments are what they describe as “Tailored performance clothing for cycling in the city”  I like the sound of that. Quality clothing does cost money, and these pants will run you $180.  They are made in New York City, which I think is wonderful.  Outlier seems to have a solid brand while maintaining ideals, designing and manufacturing from a community stand point.  I love to see US made products.  Keep it up Outlier!
