I'm a recent convert to riding jeans and boots that don't look out of place in a pub/evening social environment. I love them. I went with Knox AAA rated single layer jeans that are so comfortable.
Yes I wanted something that fitted into social events more easily. The leathers didn’t really work at social gatherings. Thank you for dropping by Mate 😎
I'm with you on the gear. In my accident if I'd not been wearing gear I'm sure my injuries would have been far worse. I do like protective jeans but not tried Draggin ones yet. Sounds like they would be a good choice!
Those are nice pair of pants I got myself a pair of those pants my recommendation is definitely take the pads off the pants before you wash them because it will turn into a freaking disaster knot . Great review mate👍🏻
Draggin jeans were very popular in the mid 2000's as there were not many protective jeans available in Australia. Now we have so many brands to choose from. Thanks for the review, it looks like they are still a good product. I am currently wearing the 4SR jeans which are pretty good. I also have the Aldi jeans which were terrific value.
The Aldi look like great value, I have lots of Aldi gear and they really are very good value, just trying to catch them on sale is the key. Thanks for dropping by. 😎
Good video and comments mate ! I have a similar pair of riding jeans 👖 with a Kevlar inside for about 8 years and it is still in great shape. It is typically hot during the summer but we all know the story …. “ dress for slide not the ride” Cheers, Eddie
Dress for the ride not the side, great comment. 8 years wow great value, must be almost time for a new pair. Many people have tried Aldi pants. I have some of their gear, but not the pants. They look like great value for money. Thank you for dropping by mate 😎
hello. Nice ride! yes. As you say motorcycle jackets and pants are very important safety equipment. It helps prevent abrasions on the skin on your arms and legs. If you wear a down jacket, the down will get into the wound. Jeans motorcycle pants look good. :D safety and health. And peace! Thank you my friend.
Loved that cheeky smile at the end, it goes well with your sense of humour telling us your better half had to shorten your jeans by a metre and a half. 😉😂😂 Now although I do have a pair of motorcycle jeans I have not worn them in years, yes they have the Kevlar in them but I always wear my leather motorcycle trousers whether it is hot or cold. I did find that if you went anywhere, say a motorbike show or meet, you got very hot in them compared to my leather trousers, which seem to keep a constant temperature. Do you find that those jeans make you sweat if you have to walk around? Great video again, always interesting.
Thanks mate, my wife loved the cheeky smile also. Funny enough I don’t get very hot in them, I find the leathers a little tight now, they must have shrunk 😂. Even at 57, I might grow I am hoping so with the next pair of jeans she won’t have to take so much off. 👍
I got me Oxford AAA jeans 👖 cause I don't like the kevlar linings in those types of jeans. Oxford & Resurgence the armour is in the weave & only weigh 13oz like normal jeans & Oxford jeans 👖 make a short leg 30" & not many brands do a short leg.I found in summer Draggin Jeans 👖 are to hot with liner but be alright in winter.What I do in winter is put Thermal pants on underneath to keep me warm. I got Slim cut but wish I got Regular Cut & get them next.I haven't tried the Resurgence jeans but know they use Pevtec liner sewn into weave so no liner like Oxford's which I do recommend & they come with knee & thigh pads.
I also been down as you might of heard & had a real nasty accident hitting gravel on crest of hill on bend on skinny country road.I always wear all the gear had Oxford AA jeans on & armour is in weave so no liner which makes you hot in summer & they stopped road rash & thigh pads I had in worked.They didn't rip & another time a stone flicked up from 1584cc Fatbob & hit me in the shin & bloody hurt but no rip or blood.When I got home & took jeans off there was no rip or split in the AA jeans but was a rip on my shin a nasty one that took about 3.5 weeks to heal.I was impressed with the jeans that they didn't rip or split from flying stone like bullet but was in my shin.Also in heavy rain take about 25mins before the water started to soak through & many times been in heavy rain for less than 20mins & jeans wet on outside but not on inside.Draggin jeans are very popular but you do get hot in summer in them which is why I changed brands.I wear a Dririder Nordic 4 jacket & Stylmarten Rocket boots which are high cut as old Stylmarten Boots were low cut & after breaking both ankles wanted high cut.Also got me a Carbon Fiber helmet a LS2 Vector Carbon Fiber Gloss helmet which is really light as well as strong.
Oh 😲 I also use got Dririder Nordic 4 gloves that have a wiper blade on left index finger which is amazing & find myself using it all the time to wipe off rain,fog,bugs.
I have Road Skin jeans in black, they are looking a bit shabby now. I bought them in 2016 and I think I've had decent use out of them. Nice vid as usual, thanks.
I have a pair of Draggin jeans. Full kevlar lining with hip and knee pads. Cost was about $300 from memory. The full kevlar makes them HOT in summer, and the knee pads are uncomfortable when off the bike and walking around as they catch under my knee caps. When on the bike they are comfortable but slippery on the seat - when i give it the beans I feel like I'm gonna slide off the back 😬. I only wear them when I go out and want to look less conspicuous when off the bike. They are well made and sturdy but I much prefer my "old faithful" leather pants.
Very smart to always wear gear even when blazing hot but come on mr tpr your not short I’m 5-2 I bet your not that small. I have problems getting riding pants but mx pants work great.
I am 5-7.5 and at 57 I think I have stopped growing unfortunately . Great things come in small packages mate. Check out the end screen you might get a surprise 😎
@@mmotorcycles9497 Yes watch it on your computer, doesn't always come up on the phone . It is on the end screen while I am drinking the coffee, right at the end.
1.5 metres 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I got a pair that came from amazon, not bad, quite stretchy and the material that holds the kevlar in is ripped now, but they're only cheap. Stay safe my friend 👍
Currently have Torque Jeans, which I got from ALDI, I don't find them as comfortable as Drayko (I think they are the same as Draggin?) which I've worn in the past. The Drayko jeans had a bit of stretchiness and were super comfy, but they tended to wear out and get holes in the thigh area.

Very happy with them, thank you for dropping by 👍
I have a pair of Drayko riding jeans that I’ve have almost 10 years. They are made with Kevlar and Dyneema. I wear all my gear a well. Ride safe mate.
Wow nearly 10 years. Great value 😎
Those are nice pair of pants I got myself a pair of those pants my recommendation is definitely take the pads off the pants before you wash them because it will turn into a freaking disaster knot . Great review mate👍🏻

I have Draggin Jeans for when I occassionally commute on the bike, no matter how short the ride. Over the boot type 👍
Yes I feel almost naked if I am not wearing the full gear, even earplugs when going to the shops. 👍
I use a pair of riding jeans in summertime, kevlar lining with hip and knee pads. Ride safe!
Thanks Mate, appreciate it 😎
I’m an all the gear guy too, but never had any jeans that would protect me in the slide. I need to find a pair that fits and take the plunge
I used to wear leathers but have moved on now to jeans and love them 😎
You can't beat good quality riding jeans.
Yes love them, l sure they will be with me for some time 👍

Solid advice! Ahhem... I seem to have grown out of my kevlar jeans and need to purchase another pair. Keep up the great content.
Thanks mate, I hate it when the jeans shrink 😁

Great review - I wanna pick up a pair of these for non-dirt ADV rides.
Great to hear from you mate. Hope the Honda is still going strong and you are well. 😎

I tend to agree the Kevlar can be very hot in summer, it winter they are perfect. I do have leather which can get hot as well. 😎

Thanks mate, wow your jeans have done very well indeed 😎
Skinny’s & boot cut 👍🏻😉🏍💨💨💨nice ride mate
Thanks mate 👍
Great review! Sorry the weather turned bad near the end of the video.
Thanks mate, yes got a little wet, but I shouldered on. Like you did in your video when you looked so cool when you were riding in the rain😎
Meant to say soldiered on, sorry spell check 😎
Great product!!
Thank you 😊

I like my old leathers but haven’t worn them in years now. I should dust them off. Nice to hear from you. Let’s ride soon. 😎
@@MRTPR The weather is getting better - riding season is coming up. Message me when your going out next. 🏍

I need to get myself a pair!
You just need a bike to go with them
I have 2 pair of Aldi motorcycle jeans and I will be wearing them today weather permitting, one pair not both 😁
Good point I only wear one pair at a time. Do you find the Aldi one comfortable, I have considered them myself 😎
@@MRTPR Yes they are fine.
Thanks Nev must give them a go 😎
1.5 metres 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I got a pair that came from amazon, not bad, quite stretchy and the material that holds the kevlar in is ripped now, but they're only cheap. Stay safe my friend 👍
Thank you mate, I am have exaggerated a little 😂 with the length that needed to be altered. Thank you for dropping by 😎
*Amazing..... Big thumbs up friend... 👍👍 Stay connected friend..... 🤝❤️*
Thank you 😊
Nice jeans. Great review 👏
Thank you 😎
Not familiar with Dragon Jeans...but I do prefer comfort these days..
Thank are a great choice if you can get them. Than you for dropping by. I agree I really value my comfort 👍
Great Video 😀
Thank you 😎
Nice review 👌
Thank you 😊
I’ve had draggins cargo pants years ago. The Kevlar was very hot around the crotch. My only complaint.
I haven't worn these in summer yet, but I presume they will be toasty warm 😎
✌
Thank you 😎

I've had Draggin cargos before too, and they are still good, but too fat to wear them now :(
They have shrunk mate. You are trim and toned. 😎
Being a fat guy it’s hard to ride riding jeans that actually fit well or fit at all.
Trying to keep trim mate is just so hard, I think mine have shrunk in the wash as they are feeling a little bit tighter than they used to. 😎
