Verified Customer Reviews for John Doe Cargo Mono Regular Fit Trousers
Understated excellence
21 Apr 2026 by Michael
I wanted a pair of motorcycle trousers that were:
AAA rated
Comfortable and wearable on and off the bike
Didn't look like specific motorcycle jeans
Featured functional and useful pockets and belt loops that were strong and well positioned
These John Doe Cargo Pants met and exceeded my needs and expectations and are now the first pair that I choose to wear for pretty much every ride. The fact that they have discreet, slim but effective armour makes them comfortable to wear on and off the bike. There is a very definite high quality feel and look about them that is obvious as soon as they are taken out of the bag.
They really do feel and fit very well.
I whole heartedly recommend them to anyone.
A couple of points to note which are absolutely not deal breakers given that sizing across brands of motorcycle clothing of pretty much all types is not consistent.
I am a 36" waist and regular inside leg size.
I found the 36" waist to be generous and the 34" inch waist to be an excellent fit.
The regular leg length is 29" rather than the usual 32" so I found them 'long' size best for me.
