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 express mixed reviews about these jeans, with some praising their comfort, safety ratings, and fit. They find the stretch fabric accommodating for various boot types and appreciate the discreetly positioned armour. While many are satisfied with the quality and look, others note issues with waist sizing and the knee protection's positioning. A few customers suggest sizing down due to stretchiness. Overall, the jeans offer good value, protection, and are well-suited for motorcycle riding with some adjustments needed for optimal fit.
Never have I found more versatile jeans than I have here. Comfortable, true to size and well padded. Knee & hip protection easy to remove and fit, never becomes a bother when wearing.
Wear these for riding but also for the office since they're comfortable enough and means 0 hassle when leaving work to ride home.
I ordered some cheap bike jeans (if £70 is cheap) elsewhere and they were good jeans but pretended to be bike jeans with a loose lining, sent them back. The Bull-it Covert are superb with a fully sewn in integrated lining, a waterproof coating and adjustable armour pockets.
They are quite heavy so I use braces to hold them up which works fine, the sizes are generous so you might want to go down a waist size and the leg length is ample.
First ever pair of biker jeans and love them the are cool in the summer let just the right amount of breeze though the padding is great. I've since washed and re waterproofed mine. There are showerproof anyway but I would never expect them to be fully waterproof. Comfortable to use when off the bike.
I read a fair few of the reviews posted on the site as well as on other sites and they came highly recommended, I can't fault them. The sizing was spot on. The quality is excellent and they feel great when worn. I haven't worn them in the rain as yet but I'll carry over trousers for longer journeys. just in case. where's the rain gone!!! thoroughly recommended, especially at the sale price.
Had multiple pairs of Bull-it jeans. As always these are comfy for a lad like me 22st and 6”2 they have a god bit of stretch to them as well so easy to wear at the start of the season after an overly festive Xmas. These had the hip armour also which is comfy but it I can I will swap it to some ghost padding . Still look fashionable also which is good. As always these are good , nice fit comfy and look good and also don’t break the bank
Great jeans - warm and comfy, armour easily removable. Only reason not 5* is the blue colour looks a bit cheap and bright (I ordered the black ones instead and much prefer them)
Very comfy, easy to remove armour and wear as jeans. Warm, even on my 7C 45 minute commute. Good level of protection. Would definitely recommend.
Got these and Bull-it Tactical Icon Slim Covec Jeans, for the extra 10GBP, going from AA to AAA is worth it. The CE2 armour they come with is soft, didn't fill me with confident so swapped it out on the knees for seeflex and a lot more breathable. Kept the hip as their seesmart / seesoft are CE1 where are the yellow ones are CE2. Being Straight cut you do have to think about how you get them inside / over your boots. Also sadly don't have a waist back zip so can't attach to rev'it jackets.
I nearly always get 32 waist i could not even pull these up definitely not close the zip and these are a 32 waist ,I have an older pair in 32 and they fit fine im sending these back for a 36 I reckon
Firstly - Absolutely Brilliant ordering and delivery service from SBS. From keyboard to my door in the north of Scotland in 20 hours! I just can't fathom how that can be done?
The jeans are bang-on. Well made and comfortable. The armour is hardly noticeable and is positioned exactly right for me. As someone who's waist is greater than my leg length, it's usually a pain getting clothes to fit, but for me, I cannot fault them for sizing and quality. My only regret is that I'd only bought them as the year draws in. Thank you SBS, Excellent..
The trousers are very comfortable. I really recommend them to everyone.
I normally buy regular length jeans & trousers but only short was available in 30 waist so I ordered those & I'm glad I did as plenty long enough tucked into boots (too narrow to go over). Quite generous sizing but then I'm a skinny 10 stone. Armour fits fine & is not too intrusive. The knee armour pocket material does feel a bit rough to the knee on the bike though. Only 2 outings yet but overall I'm pleased with them.
These are reasonably good at keeping the armour in place, given the stretch you might be better sizing down.
Comfortable fit, size is accurate, the slightly flexible material helps. Personally, I upgraded the armour to the slimmer option giving a much less biker look to the jeans. Consequently, one could easily wear them anywhere. Finish is good, not exceptional but equally, not poor or average.
The material (AAA rated) is quite substantial, so a tad warm on hot days, minor point really fir the protection offered.
Great fit & sizing, without pads look like ‘normal’ jeans. Comfortable to wear for all day rides.
Great quality, although still a little long for my short legs (despite ordering short leg trousers). Very comfortable to wear and quick service from SBS

The shower resistant coating applied to Bull-it products is a chemical product that makes the microfibres of the product stand on end. This barrier of fibres stops water drops from being able to soak into the surface of the product, however this coating will progressively fade with time. To refresh this coating, a Reproofer kit can be applied.
Yes, the jeans are single layer Covert reinforced with Covec LITE lining in key areas.
