Verified Customer Reviews for Knox Richmond Denim Jeans Mk III
Nice quality jeans
22 September 2024 by Anonymous
Found these to be true to size with a 32" waist and short leg for my 5'8" height. The jeans are very comfortable aided by the stretch fabric and the padding seems good. The only thing I would advise to watch out for is that both knee and hip pads are included as my knee pads were originally missing although Sportsbikeshop were very quick to send some out when I notified them, so excellent customer service there.

A mixed review
28 August 2024 by Robert H
I do like these jeans. The armour is well thought out and easy to remove for when you don't want or need it.
I haven't tested the safety features, and hope never to, but it gives confidence.
My only complaint is the leg length. As someone with a 29" inside leg they don't make one short enough for us.

Excellent comfortable armoured jeans

Whilst I haven't, and hopefully never will test their performance sliding across the tarmac! They are comfortable, warm and look good. Armour is in the right place when the jeans are on and you soon forget they are there.

Safety and comfort
28 May 2024 by Christopher F
Really happy with theses riding jeans. The fit is somewhere between regular and slim jeans. The knee armour is easily removed by the external sides on the inside of the knee. Only negative point is may be a little warm to wear all day in the office due to the double layers of fabric but that it what gives the protection when commuting. Great pair of riding jeans.

Excellent Fit & Finish
26 May 2024 by Anonymous
Protective jeans which are both soft and high quality. The Knox armour is an additional benefit. Size came up a little small, return service was fast and ordered the next size up, perfect fit. Knee armour is easy to remove via a zip on the outside, This is great if you are doing much walking or sitting down for a great british breakfast when reaching your destination.

Comfy jeans to commute
23 March 2024 by Anonymous
Super comfy and protective jeans. I'm using those to go to work without having to change trousers and it has been great.
While you could remove the knee protectors without taking the trousers off, I can't be bothered with the faff, so I just keep them on as the pads are slim and comfy enough that I don't mind having them for the whole day.
Obviously it's not waterproof so I still need to carry an overtrouser, and, it's not warm enough for UK weather so I'm using an undersuit below. But it wasn't designed or market as such. Therefore, 5 stars for what it's!

Knox Richmond III

One thing I have realised. The waist measurement is unstretched. If you have a 36" waist and buy a 36" pair they will not tighten and grip. Best to go for a 34", for a nice comfy fit, though you will need a belt as well.
The armour is knox, so you won't need to go and buy something better. The armour is easily removed for off bike wear, and although lined, they are way cooler than leathers in our hot summers. they also keep you warm in much cooler weather. Inside leg is on the long side, short suits me with a 30", regular was about 4" longer. You may receive them without the hip armour, this has happened to me 3 times, so someone at the warehouse isn't aware that it should be included. Very happy with the jeans.

Decent casual looking jeans
29 May 2023 by Connor B
Can't fault these jeans, slim looking casual jeans, with built in pockets and knee pads and hip/side pads which live in a separate pouch you barely notice the armour, sizings very accurate normally super risky for me buying jeans over Internet but I stayed true to my normal size, and sure enough they fit like a dream. Wearing them in hot weather might prove hot but don't feel at all cold on bike and that's what's important to me.

Very comfortable
17 May 2023 by Robert G
Very well made, the armour pockets are in the perfect place. Not cheap but high quality. I measured my waist at 36", but they stretch so much that a 34" would probably have been ok. I washed them at 30 degrees to see if they would shrink at all but they didn't. Very warm in cold weather, seem to be totally windproof. Very light. Lined. Will have to wait till the warm weather to see if I stay cool. Need a belt or braces as the stretch doesn't grip the waist. Very happy with purchase, though might try a 34" waist with a T shirt for hot summer weather.

Well constructed, innovative knee pad removal when of the bike. One caveat the zip tab could be larger , a bit fiddly.

Comfortable Jeans
19 April 2023 by Pete
Very nice pair of jeans, AA rated. Very comfortable fit and well designed. Love the armour pockets particularly at the knee. Now you can fit knee pads while wearing your jeans. Fabric is great with stretch and seems quite durable. Quality of workmanship is high which makes a welcome change. Overall well worth the money and a very good buy. Finally service from SBS was exemplary and is the reason I do a 160 mile round trip to go there.

Total satisfaction

I have had the previous Mark 11 of these jeans and i have used them on thousands of miles, but the Mark111 are on a new level of comfort being stretch fabric, they ate so comfortably, I'm looking forward to riding with them in the better weather.

Knox jeans - good choice
29 January 2023 by Anonymous
Very well made jeans and amazingly comfortable. I had a cheaper pair of armoured jeans before and they always felt as if they wouldn't protect me properly. The Knox Richmond jeans feel in a different league for confidence. I bought my usual jeans size and they were pretty loose fitting, so I ordered a size down and they fit nice and snug. The level of stretch in the material is great and you wouldn't know that the armour is there.
