These pants are great. They just came out and I have not had a chance to crash while wearing them yet but I have already ridden in them in 45 degrees fahrenheit as well as 95 degrees because I live in New England!

In the colder weather I wore cotton long underwear and was basically fine for the hour or so I was out. I also ran through some puddles of presumably very cold water but I couldn't even tell with these on and they were dry and stain free once I got home. I rode all day in the hot weather running errands and then just going for a cruise and although I was sweaty (wearing full gear did not help that) I never was aware of my legs being super hot or anything. After a day of riding and sweating I feel no need to wash the pants as they do not smell at all and look and feel just like when I got them.

As a pant they are pretty great. They look awesome and although they are bulky (as they should be since they are riding pants) they blend right in with regular closes. They also do not seem as tight as in the video review which I like. I was scared that these pants might actually be more of a Skinny fit from the video but they are definitely Slim fit.

The waist runs a bit big, I don't know if this is common on riding pants or just this company/jean. I am muscular and a 34 waist is usually just right around my waist, sometimes a little tight, but I could DEFINITELY wear a 33 in these. The extra room is fine with me though since it helps when I layer up for cold days plus you should be wearing a belt with riding pants anyway so they don't get ripped off your body in an awkward crash.

Pants feel very sturdy and I feel much more protected in them than I thought I would. If the pant holds up the test of time I can see myself sticking to this brand/jean for a long time.

NOTE: These pants are "motorcycle fit" so you buy your normal size but the length is actually a little longer so that the pants do not ride up in riding position.

I heard these jeans had a larger waist size than true, and my normal waist is 36, so I ordered 34 and fit is right on. They look pretty much like normal slim jeans without knee bulges.
They will be really toasty on a 90 degree day. All in all, very
happy with purchase.

Here is my review based on trying these on for 5 minutes. I really like them but will throw my leg over the bike before deciding to keep them - I expect to.

These are a slim fit jean, not skinny as others have mentioned. Levi's 510 is a skinny jean, topman makes skinny jeans. These are very close to a 511, but more room in the crotch/seat, and maybe a slightly smaller leg opening. There are probably others out there that nail fit as well as these, but I've never found them.

The covec material is REALLY thick. Shocked no other review mentions this. Like fleece pajamas thick. Or more so. Cannot comment on how it it gets, but i suspect pretty hot.

I ordered the knee armor before deciding if i also wanted the hip armor. I have to say it fits fine in mine, sits on the knee, and doesn't bunch. I also have to say i am shocked this is CE level 2. Not just because it's super thin and flexible. My good old fashioned make a fist and punch my knee cap type test concurs - this seems less impact absorbing, and not by a little bit, than my D30 and Knox armor pads i have for other pants. Maybe it requires a really hard impact to harden up and do its thing. Though truthfully with all the super flexible CE armor on the market from bull-it, rev'it dainese and probably others, I'm half expecting to read one day that these companies are buying CE ratings and the products are not even being tested at all. Seems too good to be true.

These do bunch up at the knee a little more than the pictures/video shows, but that could just be me, and that is because of the covec and not the armor.

I read most of the reviews. I'm a 29" waist, got a 28" and the waist fit fine, 30" would have been way too big. But these fit skinny on the legs. I usually wear a Levis 513 (fit between 511 and classic 501) and these fit skinnier than 511. These fit a little too 'spray on skinny' for me. I thought they would fit looser than in the video but I was wrong. If you're not looking for a skinny riding jean these aren't for you. The materials are great and if you like skinny jeans these will be great.

I have a Cafe Racer so I decided to order some slim fit jeans. I am 5' 11" tall and weigh about 135lb (Slim Build). I saw that some of the reviews said that this is a slim fit jean, while others said it was a skinny jean. I took the benefit of the doubt and hoped they were going to turn out slim, not skinny. When they showed up, and I tried them on they were skin tight like Yoga Pants no joke!! So these jeans are a no-go for me. If you like Skinny jeans these are definitely for you but if you want slim, try a different pair... The protection in these pants though is quite impressive. I wanted a full protective liner and these have that. Also, they are heavy and feel very durable. The constricutn=in os quality. Overall these will not work out for me because I do not care for skinny jeans. Wish they were more of a slim straight style.

Love:
They look just like regular jeans, even with the armor in. Repels water like a ducks back.
True fit to size.

The thicker COVEC is a bit warm for the summer but will be great for fall, winter, spring riding. Slightly tight in the knee area with armor in but that was to be expected. Not uncomfortable though.

Waist is a little looser than expected. Belt solved that though. Jeans stretch quite a bit. Crotch is a little tight with hip armor in place but not bad (will be better when I switch out to thinner COVEC armor in the hips)

In all, a great price for a pair of 6 second slide jeans that are more comfortable and protect better than leather.

Once in a while I prefer to buy men's pants for the slimmer fit and roomier waist (I like to tuck my shirts in). These pants were tighter than I expected, even having read the reviews (28w/34"). But I've never worn riding jeans more comfortable than these. They bend easily with movement and don't creep up the leg on the bike, exposing skin. Disclaimer: I haven't bought the armour yet, nor tried them in really hot weather. Time will tell if they pass the comfort test in a few months.

Write your review here. It must be at least 25 characters long. Consider whether you would recommend this product and what you like or dislike about it.Other reviews point out positive aspects of this product, so no need to repeat that here... comfortable, look good, great protection....

One negative that is worth noting... I found the pocket for knee protection to be too low. Top edge of Forcefield knee armor sat right at my knee cap. Still, everything else being great, I am going to modify the knee armor pockets to make them work. :)

Oh, and definitely a little warm when off the bike... no airflow, but better than the straight version which I also tried.

So these jeans are, um, puffy. They are lined with a thick (feels like a quarter inch) of fluff. Definitely an odd look/ feel. It's like you put skinny jeans over top of sweatpants. Or you're wearing a long-legged adult diaper. I'll be returning them and my quest for the perfect riding jean continues.
