Kevlar Jeans for a Skinny bloke?
 
Ok I've been wanting to get a pair of kevlar jeans for a while for when I am just going around town. The problem I have is that I need a pair of 30 longs, (apparently 5'11 and 30 inch waist isn't very common).

Does any one have any suggestions of goods makes which would accomodate this size, preferably in a "Boot cut" rather then "relaxed" or "casual"?

Thanks.

I've got 30 inside leg, and I 'think'my draggin jeans are a 30 waist. Common as muck. Who been telling you porkies?

My normal jeans are 34/34
I can only get them in certain places, not many shops do 34/34

Tried on a couple of pairs of 30 regulars in Infinity in SW london. Route One I think. Fine around the waist, but the knee armour sat with the bottom knee armour cutting across the middle of my knee when i sat on a bike.

Haven't tried any draggin'. Will have to try finding some.

I'm the same special size as you mate and have found Draggin and Hood to be the best fits for me!

Just so you know you could look at the women's sizing! I know, I know not macho BUT as with the leathers they are exactly the same as the men's but in smaller sizes ie waist and fit and nobody will know unless you get them skinny things :lol:

I have Hornee jeans (wayhey), I'm 6'3", 32" waist, and my inside leg ratio is akin to my forum avatar. I wouldn't say they are great leg length, but over boots they're just over 'ankle swininger' territory when walking and are probably the best looking bike jeans. Of course, you'll only get a few extra seconds of asphalt bum check protection until they're a tattered rag slowly being forced into your lacerated flesh, but when you get to hospital your chances of pulling a nurse will be significantly improved. :)
