Default Hornee knee sock

http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/moto...ent_prod/94966

Bought a pair of these a couple of months ago to wear under Hood kevlar jeans.

In the past I have not worn any armour with jeans as its too bulky, not comfortable to walk in, and moves around too much however I do recognise the foolishness of not doing so.

The longest I have worn these is about 8hrs at an airshow which involved plenty of walking. I wasn't expecting them to stay up but the elastic velcro strap across the knee kept them in place, they felt comfortable enough for me to forget I was wearing them at times and have a low enough profile to not make your knees look deformed.

The armour supplied is the rubbery PU type, protection to the front feels O.K but it could do with some extra width. The pouch the armour sits in is stretchy enough to take other makes of armour such as Sas-tec and D3o.

Worth a try If you don't get on with the knee pockets on jeans. Spada do an identicle pair and I think Hornee now give them away with jeans.
