Advice & Guides If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...
Customers praised the fit of these textile trousers, especially for shorter individuals, and noted their effective thermal liner and comfort. Some found the crotch-to-waist length short, while others appreciated the warmth and windproof qualities. The trousers were commended for knee armor and non-slippery seat patches, although a few mentioned fitting issues and pocket sizes. Opinions varied on waterproof effectiveness, with some experiencing leaks. Overall, they were deemed a good, protective, and cost-effective option.
The trousers were a comfortable fit. I was concerned that the length of the leg might leave my ankles unprotected with relatively low boots, but the length is perfect. I am very pleased with my purchase.
I had these before and they lasted about 10 years. Trousers were still fine really but the zips had started to break. Im 5ft 7 and a larger size 14 so I brought the 16 and 18 sizes. Although the 16 fit they were snug so not being too proud I went with the 18 so I can wear leggings underneath for added winter warmth. They look good and not too baggy like some so called ladies trousers can be. They have side vents and removable liner and if like the pair before hopefully relativey waterproof. As a bonus the process of buying, returns and refund by Sportsbikeshop is seamless.
I'm 5"8 and they're plenty long enough, warm and windproof, not tested in rain yet, non slip seat works well. Velcro around waistband allows for good fitting. Go a size up if you want to fit normal jeans underneath, I can fit leggings inside too. Pockets are a good size, and pocket's for hip inserts too. Flattering fit and I'm happy.
Soft enough not to cut of circulation behind knees, with its waterproof membrain helping not only keeping the rain out but the wind off also.
Great value for money
They arent very roomy so if youre a chubbier 10 like me youll want a size up as sitting with them on for so long sort of cut off your breath abit
These trousers fit really nicely. I am quite small and often feel like I'm wearing bulky trousers, but these are comfortable and don't make me look 2 sizes bigger! True to size
The short leg is a perfect length, I'm 5'4 and they fit well.
Very comfortable and warm for riding in 10degree weather. Not tried them in the wet, but cosy for cooler spring rides.
Great to find trousers with short leg option. Great fit. Highly recommend.
Initially I was really pleased with these. I'm only 5' 2" and they fit perfectly (size 10 short leg).
I did wonder how effective air vents on the side of the legs would be though and found in practice, they were useless sadly. The only time I got a cooling breath of air through them was in a 35mph side wind.
Unfortunately yesterday, I discovered the unforgivable flaw in them is that they aren't actually waterproof after riding 10 miles in heavy rain. I've not had textile trousers in a long time, preferring for many years to wear leather trousers plus Overtrousers as needed if weather became inclement. I thought the wet feeling I was getting while riding along in the rain must just be coldness or something. On arrival at my destination though, it was clear that the leggings I was wearing underneath were in fact wet!
A real disappointment on what seemed to be an otherwise great pair of textile trousers.
Good quality for reasonable price, fit really good and like the included armour in the knees, so far have proved to be totally waterproof.
Highly recommend
The best textile jeans I have had. Excellent quality and nice fitting with good protection. I cannot comment on how waterproof they are as I have not yet worn them in heavy rain. I purchased my normal size and it they are a perfect fit. Next day delivery was also a bonus.
Bought for my wife who noticed a slight issue with fault in inner leg, returned and replaced with no issue, quick service, my wife well pleased with quality and fit.
Bought for winter riding. Did 60 mile trip in January. Very comfortable, warm and windproof. Good fit, need to go up 1-2 sizes.
I love these trousers. I'm 5'2" and it's so nice to find a pair of trousers that almost feel tailor made for me. They will be warm in the winter and with the liner out and leg vents open perfect for hot touring days. The addition of a 'patch' stops you slipping around on the seat which is also helpful ! A really good inexpensive buy and highly recommended.
Used for about 6hrs during my CBT, a couple of showers later and no problems. Nice fit, well thought out and comfortable. Bodes well for future use
Very good quality and true fitting, great looking style. Very comfortable out for a full day on the bike.
The thermal lining is a wee bit bulky but sure keeps you warm and is easy to remove.
