RST Kevlar Wax Jeans?
Anyone have any thoughts on these?
I have leathers which I use for almost everything, but thinking of a pair of these for chucking on for the occasional summer morning trip to work and back. http://www.twowheel.co.uk/rst-kevlar...ans-black.html |
Re: RST Kevlar Wax Jeans?
I have some RST kevlar jeans (not wax ones). Jeans a well made with lots of kevlar patches on the inside. Armour is OK but not great and the netting pouch it sits in is a bit poor. I upgraded the knee armour to forcefield. Since I bought my leathers have not worn jeans.

Re: RST Kevlar Wax Jeans?
I've just ordered a pair, so will see what they are like when they arrive (can always send them back).
Problem I've been having is finding a pair that don't make me look like MC Hammer... If the RST's are not much cop, I might try a pair of Hood's. Not too worried about the armour as I plan to get some of the ones that strap to your leg. |
Re: RST Kevlar Wax Jeans?
Have a look at sartso kevlar jeans, have a pair of illusions and they are a quality pair of jeans. Get better reviews than rst and hood too!

Got some Hood ones a couple of weeks back. Must admit they're pretty decent. The lining isn't Kevlar, it's paramid, which isn't quite so comfortable.

I've got some Kevlar jeans and have only worn them twice.
They don't offer the same level of protection and just don't "feel" safe. |

Well Knox me down with a feather. I'll have to look at those. The floppy armour in my textiles isn't too clever ad I don't trust it'd be where it's needed if the stuff hit the fan. Thanks.

I'd say Draggin' Jeans do some great moto jeans : http://www.dragginjeans.net/
Not as cheap as others but they have good protection at knees AND hips. I've been eyeing the evo model, which looks to be quite decent protection-wise (as long as you tuck them in your boot when you ride so that they don't ride up when scraping against the asphalt). |
