Overall good quality, a few reservations
17 Mar 2026 by AllyR
I've got a 35" inseam (to the floor) and the long fit is perfect. Drapes a bit when standing but great on the bike. Fit through the leg is good and matches the 'easy' description. Goes over mid height touring boots no problem. Overall construction quality seems good. Good rich black colour, yet to wash. Thumbs up for zip fly. Reassuringly thick, I wore with long johns on a one hour 6ºc ride and got away with it but also feel like they would breath well enough in summer.
Gripes:
-I went for my usual size because some of my regular trousers are tight these days but I still should have sized down. If you are comfortable in your high street jeans, definitely size down.
-The wasitband is massive. There is a lot of excess material at the top above the button. If I wasn't wearing a belt it would be annoying.
-The supplied armour is the bulky foam type, fair enough at the price but see below
-They have a convoluted 'shelf' system in the pocket for fitting the height of the pads, it seems fiddly at best but in my case is useless as I've put bigger D3O L1 Diablo in instead and the pocket is scarcely big enough, let alone use the shelf system, so they sit a bit higher than ideal and I can't do anything to move them.
-6 belt loops, i.e two at the back would be better, my previous cheap pair had that.

Great fit, great style

I wanted a pair of riding jeans that look and fit like normal everyday jeans but with the added protection.
These are great for that. Delivery and service was spot on as expected too.

I liked the first pair so much I bought a second
11 Mar 2026 by Roland N
I really like the fit of these. They look more or less like normal jeans. A bonus is that they come with the protectors. I liked my first pair so much that I bought a second pair.

Bull-it Onyx Easy Covec Jeans - Black
25 Feb 2026 by Peter
These motorcycle jeans are incredibly well made, the fabric is tough but very stretchy, the armour fitted well and isn’t overly bulky, overall they give great protection while looking like regular jeans.
I am usually a 34 waist, but I found that they were too big for me so I returned them for 32 waist and they fit perfectly.
My return was handled expertly by sportsbikeshop, first class service as usual.

Look great & are comfortable

These actually look like regular jeans more than most motorcycle jeans. Knee protection isn't too intrusive which makes them comfortable to wear

Perfect Fit!

I absolutely love this product, great true to size fit, comfortable, stylish, and more importantly, the built in armour sit on my knees correctly, and comfortably when riding and the hip protectors not too bulky. Would definitely recomend this product and will purchase again.

Haven't worn them on the bike yet but they feel really good and the sizing worked for me. Haven't fathomed how to get the armour in yet!

Good value and quality
23 Dec 2025 by Dennis C
I have a few pairs of these as they are very hard wearing as I use them for riding daily and in work. Good fit not too heavy but great for the summer as well as spring. The armor isn't intrusive with only a noticeable bulge at the knee.

Good look but is a bit tight. Excellent protection and although it is a bit tight, you don’t feel when riding

These are a good and comfortable to wear on & off the bike, the knee armour is ok when riding but drops a bit lower (like most) when off the bike which is a bit of a nuisance, overall good jeans & look like normal jeans.
