Like those cycling pull on sleeves for the arms - does anyone make / sell (length) short pull on leggings, just covering the knee?

Or just buy a good pair of knickers. I was hesitant to purchase a pair but after having to deal with gaps opening up in my knee/leg warmers, and getting irritated at the grippy band on my leg, I invested in a pair. For my money, night and day. I much prefer the comfort of a good pair of knickers. Of course you lose the ability to switch to shorts on the fly, but I found that once I put the knee warmers on I never took them off. So the ability to change it up on the road wasn't an issue for me.

I probably have about half a dozen pairs of knee warmers in my cool weather bin. Castelli, LG, ChampSys, Voler, Hincapie. Every clothing maker has them.

Do you put the knee warmers under your shorts? I have about 7 or 8" of overlap between by knee warmers and bib shorts. Between the compression of the bib shorts and the actual knee warmer silicone gripper, those things have never moved in years.
