Kevlar riding Jeans or Pants with armor

[HYPERR]

Anyone know of and recommend a good riding jeans or riding pants that comes with knee armor? I'm looking for something that looks like regular jeans or pants that would blend in when I go to class at the uni or when I go out. I like the looks of my Icon Super Duty cargo pants but they do not come with armor.

Draggin Jeans? I think Icon makes a set of jeans with armor and pads all over them.

There's a couple more on there, but they're all denim with knee armor and reinforcement.

Icon does not make any jeans or cargo pants with armor. I don't think draggin does either. The trouble is, all the ones that comes with armor look like motorcycle pants and not regular pants. I'm looking for riding pants with armor that look like regular jeans or pants.

You can get knee pads with armor and then wear the jeans over them. That's what I do. And I like Diamond Gusset Defender jeans.

Me too, I have a couple of different knee armour's that I put under different pants, it's not ideal but a lot more protection than having none.

I bought Draggin Jeans and the extra Hook and Loop armour for the knees. That Velcro has never ever let me down the pads don't shift at all.

This one caught my attention due to the pocket for knee armor. However the review says it is a slim cut. I am pretty small waisted but have very thick legs so I need at the very least a loose fit and in most cases a baggy fit.

I thought about that too and it's not a bad idea for most situations. I already have the Fox offroad shin and knee armor that I use when I go on the dirtbike so I could try that. The problem is, I don't want to be wearing those armor when I am off the bike. Work is no problem and at school, I can put them in my knapsack but I don't really want to be carrying them around when I go out.

When I go to work, I wear my Joe Rocket Alter Ego overpants with armor. I'm thinking I can do the separate armor under riding jeans/riding cargo pants when I go to school as I can put the armor in my knapsack. The problem is othertime. I don't want to be walking around with velcroed armor and I don't want to be carrying them around either.

Is this an option for the Draggin Jeans? Are they comfortable when walking around?

I could sew in armor pads for you ...maybe! . Kevlar is very tough though so would need a heavy duty knitting needle or something but I think its do-able. Wouldn't it be best to have some kind of pocket fixed in so you could take them out or do you want something fixed in?

draggin jeans australia and usa you can order with armour. The aussies though now have a pair of jeans that have a CE raiting.

Draggin Jeans are comfortable but they are warm. If you are going to be like, riding somewhere then playing sports or going for a long walk in the sun I wouldn't recommend them. They are fantastic in the fall and winter months for pretty much any activity.

The Hook and Loop Knee Pads are an option you can order from the Draggin site unless things have changed. Hook and Loop is velcro basically but these pads have a very heavy duty version of it.
