I'm 6'4" and finding pants that dont pull up to mid-calf while riding has proved difficult and a pair that have the protection/comfort I want near impossible.  I'm hoping to find a pair of 3 season mesh or textile pants.  I wear size 32 or 34" waist and 34 or 36" inseam.  Anyone have any advice?

Welcome to the club.  I'm 6'0" and have similar problems.  Laminar is a member here that is as tall, if not taller than you.  I wonder which riding pants he wears?

I can recommend these and they come in tall sizes as well.

http://www.tourmaster.com/xcart/catalog/Venture-Air-Pant-p-227_4.html

With both liners they are very warm, warmer than my solid overpants.  With no liners and just mesh they are very breezy, I wear them in Atlanta summers.

FYI, the "waterproof" liner... isn't.

I like the look of those tourmaster's and I also found these on New Enough, http://newenough.com/street/pants/mesh_pants/scorpion/deuce_mesh_motorcycle_overpants.html/ . They are one inch longer in the inseam which is attractive to me.  Any experience with durability in a get off for either pair?

I haven't braved the 4 grit belt sander in mine, but I did walk from a car crash in them.
