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...
As there were no reviews of these jeans out there I bought them based on brand and features as I already bought an Alpinestars jacket and gloves and wanted matching jeans (I'm new to bikes). The fit is good and I like how the knee padding is not bulky like in other brands so you can wear these like normal jeans. They go perfect with the neo cafe or modern retro bikes.
Unfortunately they don't come in different lengths so I had to spend even more on top of the already really high price tag (£200) to had them altered to my short legs (I'm 5'10") so this isn't great.
The hip protectors are not included, only the knee ones so you have to spend another £20 on top for them.
I wish I saw the reviews on here before I bought them as after the first wash the colour is no longer black but more like grey and they look like they've been washed hundreds of times. For the price they charge this shouldn't happened. I'm really disappointed.
When you wear these jeans they just feel like my normal jeans. Super comfy, even with the added hip protectors, long legs and hopefully I'll never have to test their protection abilities
Super comfy jeans worth every penny. You may have to buy a size smaller than you usually need. I am a 34 waist and I needed 31.5 waist to fit me
They fit great, but they are probably a bit too long. Wished they included the hip armor, but can be bought separately (not expensive thankfully). They are very comfortable and feel premium, even for a normal pair of jeans.
These jeans are an improvement the previous model (although the previous model came with slight hip padding. These offer a pocket for adding hip armour instead). The main drawback I had on the previous model was the belt straps - sections kept falling under the belt. This has been greatly improved on this version, so the fit is a lot better . The fit and feel is good - only wish different lengths were available as they are always too long for me. The reason for marking down one star is due to the colouring. I noticed my bike seat was getting black as the colour from the jeans was transferring onto it and this was not even due to water. I therefore washed the jeans and after first wash they are now pale black. I would not have marked it down for this but I having looked at my much cheaper normal jeans, some are 2-3 year old and these have been through the wash so many times without losing colour. So if relatively cheap £20-£30 jeans can get colours correct then no excuse really. Other than that they are great jeans. Good quality feel and look like normal jeans off the bike. Comfortable to wear as well.
I bought a pair of riding jeans years ago when I first passed my test and they were…alright. It was nice to have something more substantial to ride in, but I found there were a lot of compromises that outweighed the benefits. That is definitely not the case with these! They have a slight stretch to the denim which means they fit perfectly, the knee armour is flexible enough to pretty much be unnoticeable when they are on, and the quality of the denim feels great. Sure, they might cost a bit more than alternatives, but I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone. I've also had more compliments from people about how I look since I started wearing them, so that can't hurt either!
Excellent jeans, well made and look like any other non-motorcycle jean. The material feels quite soft and not scratchy. The legs were incredibly long, I chose to go long so that I could get them altered to my specific leg length. This was achieved at a local seamstress for an extra few quid.
Very comfortable top support and delivery from these guys and price matched with very little effort will be using again !!!
Purchaded these a few weeks ago and exstremly pleased. The fit and comfort are perfect. The knee protection sits perfectly on the knee whilst in the riding position. Great quality as normal from A stars.
