    Wearing leathers to go to uni or just being out and about is a tad inconvenient so I'm looking to pair up the "Stealth" Triumph jacket I bought recently (thanks to Frogcake) with some decent looking protective jeans.
    Recommendations?
    Also, is tucking your jeans into boots really that gay?

    I have Hood jeans - good because they have kevlar almost everywhere. The hip armour particularly, and the knee armour are not very flattering hence I'm not allowed to be seen in public with them.

    recommendation? Black ones, you get filthy anywhere near a bike

    yes it is.
     
  3. Draggin jeans are awesome! I have a pair and you can't tell they're biking jeans even though they have Kevlar woven into them! The bloke who designed them was dragged on his arse down a runway and they didn't wear through! So that makes them a fashionable alternative to leathers if you ask me!!

    Don't wear anything without knee protection.......your knees would last for a mili second hitting the tarmac at just national speed limits.

    Need to get some of these myself, just for short runs to the shops etc.


    Do or do not, there is no try.

    Cheers lads. So you mean I've been riding around like a homosexual? What's the point of buying awesome looking boots and then hiding them?
     
  10. I use draggin jeans, but also bought the draggin jeans k pants that are kelver, and you wear them under any jeans, a lot of money, but it allows you to wear what you want over them, and they keep you warm :)

    I think most gay men would have more sense than to tuck their jeans inside their boots.

    You will always look a twat with your jeans tucked in your boots.

    But it looks just like leathers tucked into boots! I have puma v1000's and I'd need really baggy jeans to fit over them!

    If you are buying jeans so you don't have to walk around in leathers, how will you disguise the V1000's ??

    Might be time to get some less bulky boots to go with the jeans ;)

    I bet you have short sleeve, collared shirts, carry biro's in the breast pocket and wear a fleece.

    I can cope with sitting and walking around in boots.
    Impressive. Cringed a bit when he was cutting into the jeans with the Stanley. His fingers were too close to the blade!

    Tucking your jeans into your boots is not gay....Hadies might well be gay (prolly is, in fact), but not because he tucks his jeans into his boots. Last thing you want is to fall off and have your jeans ride up above your knees because you thought they looked cool on the outside of your boots.

    'Cept maybe for those white boots...that defo looked a bit gay.
