Advice needed

hey all i have decided to get myself kitted out, currently i wear a textile jacket with armour, gloves with kevlar bits, set of alpine star boots and just some jeans, now i know it is silly to just wear jeans but i dont do great distances so pulling leathers up and down can be a pain, now i know that an accident can happen anywhere so i was wondering peoples opinions on these,

I think they are quite cool and have all the protection bits, i am also going to get a leather jacket so if anyone has any forsale at a good price let me know. thanks all

Little bit alarmed by the "abrasion resistant polyester shell" bit - doesn't seem to have anything else (like cordura/aramid kevlar) for abrasion resistance.

I'd be more tempted by Hood, or Draggin offerings:

or these: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=88828

i really like the looks of them draggin jeans ones so have emailed them about prices and colours, thanks for links

I think the hood jeans might be better? I'm ordering a set of concept 6 jeans soon

Got a pair of the Hood concept 6 jeans. More kevlar than the Dragin stuff, and generally very pleased. Hood also get extra bonus points from me for superb customer service.

I've justgot a pair of the draggin jeans...yet to try them on the bike though.

i think these are more of a waterproof trouser than protection

most peeps say hood are better than draggin, but they dont look as good IMO but as grinch pointed out does it matter how you look if your slidding down the road on your @rse?

hood are only avilable through their website £65?

draggin start out at about £80
