I think they were DHB Aeron Rain Defence? I could be wrong, so don't quote me! :???:
Pretty sure I saw a video of him on the Tour Divide and he was wearing down trousers when it was cold, i.e. early mornings. Maybe he took stuff for dry cold and wet cold... 🤷
Yep. He was wearing Patagonia NanoPuff trousers through the coldest parts. But he also had the waterproof bib tights with the chamois cut out. There's a bit in the film where he's in a cafe sheltering from a storm and he puts them on.

Yes Josh is one of the two riders I was referring to. He seems to have used this combo (bib shorts + bib tights) also since he moved to Albion.
The other one is Angus with his DHB kit.
