RST X Kevlar jeans

Nice fit knee armour does not sit right tho , but really that's an ongoing problem with all jeans unless you get a tight fitting pair .
So now I just use separate knee sleeves and take the knee armour out all my motorcycle jeans to give a much more comfortable and safer feel .

Good fit and very comfortable

I took advantage of the "try or buy" facility that SBS offer. I ordered 4 different pairs of jeans to try in store at Reading. Although these were the most expensive of the 4, they were by far the most comfortable and best fitting (34" waist, short leg). Knee armour is included but hip protection is not, so that's an extra expense if you want that feature. I found that standard D30 hip armour from my other trousers fitted the pockets perfectly.

These are the most comfirtable jeans i own. Enough stretch so yiur knackers arent all bunched up. Theyre lined so nice and toasty and o viously the fact they have built in knee protection and are made of kevlar is just reassuring.

Manufacturer
RST X Kevlar® Tapered Fit CE Denim Jeans - Black Denim
- Stretch fibre denim construction with reinforcements
- Made with DuPont™ Kevlar®
- Partially fixed mesh lining
- CE level 1 knee protection
- Pockets for optional hip protection
- Classic five-pocket design
- Front fly opening and button closure system
- RST brand patch
- Contrast stitch details
Made from stretch denim with an aramid fibre lining in key impact areas such as the side of the leg, seat area and knee. CE rated to Level A, additional protection is also offered by the CE Level 1 knee armour and a pocket for the hip armour. Supporting this on the reverse of the jean is the new RST Infinite Adjustment Armour System for the knee armour. Essentially, the knee armour cotton pocket has been extended across the length of the jean legs. Additionally, the knee armour is now housed in a cotton bag and once inserted into the pocket, can be adjusted using the hook and loop system on both the armour bag and the armour pocket. This gives endless possibilities for positioning the armour to suit and aids comfort levels. A ruler is printed on both armour pockets to support positioning accuracy on both legs.
