"I ordered the Minima waterproof trousers in size XXL as I felt this should fit me but they are rather tight and a bit short. I would have preferred it if you could order according to actual sizes in cms and inside leg measurements as I am 6'3" tall and have a 105cm waist.
Thank you."

Good looks but Poor quality
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Low Quality
"Size was more than perfect (I prefer the loose style). Nevertheless the trousers proved to be of weak quality below the ''precious'' area. As soon as I stretched a bit to warm up before my 2nd ride, the product decided to tear apart from butt to knee area. It was a shame because I never had a problem with sizing from wiggle and I am sure it was not the case on this one also. I also thought dhb brand to be one of the best out there. Well, I returned the trousers and got a refund. I have now ordered a dhb windproof top layer jacket and if it also fails then bye bye dhb for me. :)"

Does The Job& Good Features
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
"I really like these. They fold down flat so not too bulky to keep in a back pack. I like the adjustable fastners around the lower leg so stop any excess material flapping around. The fastners around the ankle also good. Got caught in a heavy sleet/rain shower and the water just rolled off thhem. In fact I wore them for the rest of the ride and no problems with overheating or discomfort. I also like the hi vis markings. All in all an excellent product and not a bad price. I'm a 36" and went for black, Large size and fit is excellent."

Good value but size isn't great
Pros: Great Value
Cons: Poor Fit
"I prevously had the size medium, which I thought were great, but they were a little too small. (I am 6'0 with a 34" waist). The fit fine, but stretched when swinging my leg over the saddle. After a few months use, this caused a hole in the back of my trousers!
Not great, but I was pleased with them otherwise, so decided to buy a new pair in size large. They are a bit baggier then I would like, but other than that they are fine.
tl;dr - good value, get the right size!"

Dry, but not good if you are tall
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Rugged, High Quality
Cons: Unadjustable, Poor Fit
"The trousers are waterproof, and reflective, and wash easily without a problem, so as far as the product goes, for the price, there are a steal. My only issue with these is the sizing, and it probably is due to me being an odd size rather than the trousers not fitting properly - but a word of warning for tall people:
I have a 36" waist and 36" inside leg, so I ordered XXL - leg leg is a good few inches too short, and the waist, even when fully tightened, is loose enough to slip down to a point where cycling is restricted every 2 miles or so. if you are a similar size, I would steer away from these trousers."

Bad fit
Cons: Poor Fit
"I purchased these waterproof trousers after contacting Wiggle as I take a 41" waist trouser size and was informed these would fit.
They did not being far too tight and I find it almost impossible to get cycle clothing in extra large sizes - manufacturers please note!"

Good, but too short
Pros: Great Value
Cons: Poor Fit
"I bought a couple of different sizes, and although the product seemed well made and thought out, the product was too short in the leg (I'm 6ft 1inch) and would ride up when cycling so I had to send them back.
I was disappointed to send them back as they seemed good value for money, although I never got to try them in the rain due to the problem with the size"

Fantastic quality at a fantastic price
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
"Having researched a number of alternative suppliers I eventually decided on the dhb Minima trousers.
I was looking for something lightweight, breathable and fully water resistant as I was cycling the Hadrians cycleway coast to coast route and anticipated lots of changes in weather conditions!
I was looking for something lightweight, breathable and fully water resistant as I was cycling the Hadrians cycleway coast to coast route and anticipated lots of changes in weather conditions!
Having now completed the route I was more than impressed with the dhb Minima, they met all of the criteria that I had laid out. They may be more expensive (slightly) than some of the other options but they were extremely waterproof and breathable - spending several hours a day in the rain and wind without any problems and hardly noticing that i was wearing them."

Cons: needs more reflectives
"i got these cos i wanted a decent pair of waterproofs for the comin winter! i didnt want to spend loads but was a lil worried that cheaper pairs wudnt be so gud.....neednt have even been a concern - as usual dhb delivers! got caught in a heavy down pour on the way home from work the other day and stayed absolutely bone dry! (altho i was only in it for 1/2 hour - dont no how they'd hold up on a long ride)
they're lightweight and the ankles are adjustable.
im a 38" waist and the xxl fitted perfectly

dhb Trousers Dont Have or Buy them
Pros: cheap
Cons: Unadjustable, Low Quality, Poor Fit
"I bought these for cycling to and from the office, but did not get to put them to the test as they are really basic. They are ungenerously cut, have no pockets and a velcro waist so I have returned both sizes that I tried.
I am going to find some which are a better fit!"

Too short in the leg
"At 6'1 and a half these trousers are too short in the leg and only reach the top of the ankle. So i sent them back. Shame as they seem to be good well made trousers otherwise. Never tested them in the rain though as don't want wet and cold ankles. At the price i'd recommend these but only if you have a maximum inside leg of 32'."

Really Good value
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Adjustable, Good Fit
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"I have now had these about a month and they are really good quality.
I have been out in the rain in them and after 3 miles I was bone dry.
They are also comfortable and fit really well.
I have been out in the rain in them and after 3 miles I was bone dry.
They are also comfortable and fit really well.
They have a high front which is good so your jacket will overlap it nicely, and they also have a reflective strip down the side.
I am 5"11 and 31" inside leg, went for the Large and they fit really well.
The greatest thing is that they roll up really small to fit in the bag that comes with it, which easily fits in a side pocket in your bag
If I had to find a fault it would be the breathability, but for a normal commute they are perfectly fine and to be honest I don't really see any reason to pay more."

Good buy, some short comings
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, Adjustable, Lightweight, compact
Cons: Poor Fit
"Lightweight trousers that fold down very compactly which is excellent. Also the waterproofing seems pretty good although so far I haven't worn them in serious rain. (If these trousers are like my dhb jacket I expect to get around a year before they let the water in). The only shortcoming is that they are a little short (I'm 5ft8). So no chance of them rubbing on my chain but also no chance of keeping the bottoms of my trousers dry. Overall good value for money but may be worth considering an alternative (or perhaps larger size) if you are taller than average."

Great trousers for the dull days
Pros: Attractive, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: wont fit in the bag
"Brilliant trousers, was a bit concerned about the price but they look good and are a flattering fitting despite being waterproofs. My only bugbear is that they don't really fit into the tiny storage bag they come with but on the whole very pleased."

Nice but too short
Pros: Comfortable, Adjustable
Cons: Poor Fit
"These trousers are nicely made with great features like the velcro belt and the trouser zips. I am 5 ft 8 with 32 waist so I bought medium which is for 5'7-5'10 33-35 so should be ample. The trousers are far too short to be any use. When standing they are fine and look like trousers when cycling the bottom of the trousers ends at my shin, above my ankle so a third of my leg gets soaked."
