I bought these jeans because of a recommendation by AI of all things! I've found them to be very comfortable and a nice loose fit , therefore very easy to wear on the bike. I like the theory behind the system for positioning the knee armour but found it lacking in reality! I found the original (and genuine John doe level 2) armour difficult to get into the correct position as with the jeans being such a loose fit it never seemed to be in the correct place once on the bike. Also I found the velcro that's used to attach the armour into the pocket irritated my knee after a while. To try to cure both these problems I bought D30 gohst armour with velcro attached but instead of having the velcro towards my knees I turned it the other way so the velcro was facing outwards. I personally found this to help with the positioning of the armour as with the D30 armour being flat it's easier the get it to sit over my knees and the problem of the velcro irritating me is now gone. Overall I'm very happy with these jeans, definitely the most comfortable ones I've owned. And as always great service from sportsbikeshop.
