I got these after a brief search at other makes and I think I went for these mainly as they were Goretex so should be pretty waterproof, which indeed they are, pity in a way cos I could have sent them back.
First time I wore them in mid January (bearing in mind its been a pretty chilly winter this year
I thought the lining had got caught when I'd put them on, cos my knees were freezing when I got to work, worse still they were still as cold when I got home that night as well
, so I decided to take a look at the lining. It stops just below the knees when you stand up and rides above them when you sit on the bike 
I decided to contact F.T. about this cos I was pretty p*ssed off about it, they got back to me after a week or so, I quote
" Ive checked all our trousers and all the liners are all like that, its so you can get your boots on as you wont be able to tuck a liner in your boots. If you get cold knees get some cold killers. 
She obviously didnt know beforehand as she had to check, and as for the cold killers_
Ive been on bikes for nearly 30 years and have never found any knee length boots for blokes on bikes (I'm a prude I know
)
Thats it really if you want some Waterproof trousers then these are okay but if you want to keep warm, really, no really DONT BOTHER
