Kevlar Jeans. Who has em? Where can I get em?

[Doc]

I am thinking of getting a pair of Draggin jeans with the optional CE Armor.

Does anyone have them? Or something similar? Ever crash tested em?

Do you know a good place to buy them. (I can only find em for $100 and have been told you can get em for $75)

Thanks in advance.

I just got a pair of Icon riding jeans. Having arrived yet, but ffbuell has the same pair & says great things about them. I've seen them on solomotoparts but I got mine on eBay

I owned a pair of draggin jeans a few years back. I was not impressed.

I have the Icon ones as well, and am very happy with them. I can't remember the freakin' model name, but they're vented, and the only thing I don't like is that they have about 15 icon logos on them. Very comfortable though, and they have zip-up pockets which is always a plus.

Edit: These are the ones I have. Not full kev, just the knees.

I wear and stock Cortech jeans with the optional CE armor. I like the fit better than the Joe Rocket and the Icon jeans but that's me. Mine are listed at $99.99

Are the Cortecs the DSX?

These just arrived and I broke them in this morning. Not bad! They have knee pockets for armor, though they don't come with the armor itself.

The style of the jeans seemed to be straight out of the mid 80s, the kevlar patches got very warm and didn't seem to offer much coverage...I bought them to be more convenient than throwing on an oversuit and more protective than normal jeans but it wasn't enough of either for me to bother. Some people seem to like them, YMMV.

Yes they are

Hey jim...............

I have two pairs of Red Route riding jeans. They have kevlar in the ass and knees. One pair has CE armor in the knees, they are a baggier fit. Haven't crash tested either, hope I don't ever have to. I like them because the inseam isn't 34" like most of the other ones.
