I found some SEA lycra pants that seem thin and flexible, would something like that work?

I would think you would want short pants under the SEA 3/4, has anyone looked at the under armor or equivilant that would work? If it is warm out, would commando under the hikers a recipe for chaffing and later pain, or should I look for a NON thermal lined bike short?
I just bought a pair of the 3/4 myself and am going to use them in Sarasota. I will see what I can find out there in the .5 - 1 mil range
Thanks
Just to clarify, by cool, I was thinking 50-60 degree days in the Fall/Winter with water temps in the 50's and, Yes, I have the airprene hiking pants.
I found some SEA Metalite pants that say they are .5mm neoprene like material that might be an option? Anyone have these?
Yes. I had these. They were pretty warm, but too thick to wear hikers over. I've had the airprene hikers and had to buy the 3 MM 3/4 neoprene hikers for the cold stuff. Other than biking pants I did not find anything that would work under them.
That's one of the reasons I switched to the new fancy, (and expensive) Zhik system. I have the super light pant for the summer, and the medium pant for colder days. The same hiking pads are worn around your thighs in either pant. I have really loved it. It also weighs much less than traditional shoulder strap hikers.
However, you do have to go commando in these because wearing anything underneath make them slide down.
If your cold don't put lycra underneath - it will chill you even more.
I wear rooster polypro leggings in autumn under my hikers. When it gets colder I also add a raceskin. If you want shorts rooster have just brought out hot shorts (made from same material as hot tops) which should do the job but I've not tried them.
