Verified Customer Reviews for Bull-it Icon II Straight Covec Jeans
Our customers say…
Customers are consistently impressed with these motorcycle jeans, praising their comfort, quality, and understated design that resembles regular jeans. Many appreciate the discreet but effective armour, though some mention challenges with adjusting it. The jeans' stretch and fit are highlighted, though sizing seems larger than expected, leading to recommendations of ordering a size down. Despite minor issues with pocket depth and occasional length adjustments, they offer excellent protection and are versatile for off-bike wear. Overall, a highly recommended purchase with a style that caters to urban riders.

Waist too big
08 Mar 2026 by James
Waist too big for the size and weight of the armour makes them fall down. Tag in the bag really sharp and itchy, had to cut out. Armour pocket in the knees is too low. After modifying and replacing with ghost armour they are ok.

Fits really well, looks great!

I really liked the fitment and style of these jeans. Fit tight enough to look good, but loose enough to fit over boots etc. One complaints I do have, is that they are a slightly different colour to the look on the website.

Good Quality

Slightly big on waist.
Really good fit legs and bum, good stretch in legs allows easy movement.

So far so good
18 Feb 2026 by Andy L
Recommended by the instore team. Fit is very comfortable. Definitely go a size smaller on waist - these not only give you a riding boost but a confidence boost too.
Wash sparingly to maintain the water repellent material, normal 40 degree wash. Good price too.

Nice fit, correctly sized.
12 Feb 2026 by Graham
Decent quality and a good fit, accurate to size and a nice colour. Took me a while to fit the armour in position but at least it can't fall out. Worn them a few times now and very pleased with the quality and price.

Nice pair of motorbike jeans

They are lightweight and comfortable. They may be cold in the winter however I brought them for summer rides and I think they will be fine.

Great value!

Really comfortable, good level of protection and great price.
Probably more a slim fit than straight cut though.
Staff were fantastic as well, really knowledgeable and helpful.

Stretchy and comfortable on long rides, only gripe is that the belt line sits quite low on me

Great summer trousers

Looking for a summer pair of touring trousers which were cool and comfortable without compromising safety. These are a great option for those 25+ deg days on the continent.

Bull it Icon jeans
09 Sep 2025 by Alan M
These are a nice fitting pair of jeans, fit very much like conventional jeans, more so than some other armoured jeans I have tried. They are fine and warm around the UK, possibly a bit warm for touring abroad in high 20s temperatures, but a good product U would buy again.

Nice jeans

These are a perfect fit size wise and look like normal jeans even with pads in. Pads sit perfect when on and off the bike would definitely recommend

Very good

Definitely size down as they come up big. Very stretchy and comfy, needed the longer length and could do with more adjustment for the knees but very happy them.

High quality denim biker jeans

Heavy duty denim, with knee and hip armour if required. Good fit, not cheap, but happy with the quality

Excellent jeans with awkward armour
21 Jul 2025 by Nick
As motorcycling jeans go, these are comfortable and seem to be good quality. They are warm and seem to be built for decent abrasion resistance, although I have not tested them, thankfully. My only gripe would be the armour. Supplied separately, fitting it is frustrating: the pockets for the knee pads have an opening which seems too small for them and getting their position right is a time-consuming trial and error method. I am not looking forward to doing this every time I wash these jeans.
