draggin jeans are good. i have them in black denim. only thing I dont like about them is the lack of armour or places to fit armour in mine.

though I bought mine in Australia so probably not much help re getting them here.

Got some K7 Hood jeans. Look like normal jeans but have good layers of protection. They have velcro patches on the knees to which i attached some armour. Cost about 65 quid and are real good value for money and look great too

another for Hood Jeans. Got a set of K7 jeans, very comfy, good fit, kevlar lining to the shins and knee and hip armour. Not too hot either, which is good.

Armour is removable and you can wash the jeans without a problem. Which is good.

Hood jeans are very good.
Well made, good service etc.

Only thing is if you wear them off the bike for any length of time the knee armour does get a bit uncomfatable.

They work though ask SVeedy Gonzales

Yep, wouldn't be without them now... saved me from a very nasty mess and they even replaced the jeans for free so they could use the damaged ones to show customers... great service and great product... just make sure you get the armour as well!

I never wore them for long off of the bike but I can see that it would be a pain after a while. With practice you can get the armour in and out within a few minutes, but you'd need somewhere where you could completely take the jeans off to do this - public loos or something?
