M4_Fanatic Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 I personally just use the bog standard ones I've been issued with (although I can only recall having to wear them once or twice) - seems to meet all your criterias (never chaffed with them, and they were quick drying).I can't imagine it being too comfy airsofting/ running around with long johns though, to be honest with you, but saying that I do know someone who has modified their issued long johns by stitching a zip to the side, to allow it to be taken off quickly when needed. From what I've heard underarmour makes pretty good stuff - but they're also pretty expensive.If you want something to keep you warm whilst you're stationary, have you looked into softie trousers? Those are pretty immense and I prefer those over the long johns! Link to post Share on other sites
druid799 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 If your set on getting long johns check out your local Lidl's when they have motorbike gear in . I picked up a pair of there bikes ones for not a lot of dosh (under a tener if I remember correctly ) and there really good , have stretch panels on muscle groups with extra thickness were needed to help avoid cramps and the like .
