[RC] Childrens Riding Stuff(male alternatives to tights) - EdI have found many alternatives to tights for riding pants. I started out in jeans and they are horribly uncomfortable and if riding more than 5 minutes wouldn't wear them. I have found many other types of pants that are quite comfortable and utilitarian. I have worn summer weight BDU's(army camo pants with cargo pockets and belt loops, can carry "stuff"), lightweight hiking pants (great quick dry material, thin seams, cool and can wear something underneath in cold weather), sweatpants and most recently in fleece lined Reebok windpants. The common thread is these are all lightweight (seams don't seem to matter), loose fitting and I wear them anywhere! Tights are overrated as I've tried them also and found them to no better, no more comfortable and far less utilitarian (not to mention I wouldn't wear them out of context of a riding venue). My $.02.
