Summer Pants

[johnny80s]

I am looking for a pair a summer riding pants that don't look like motorcycle pants. I do not want jeans because I want something more protective than that. I want to be able to wear them like regular pants and not over pants. I want to be able to blend in a little while walking around off the bike.

Any ideas?

There are new jeans all the way lined with Kevlar "Rokker" Swiss Made. I think they have a distributor in Florida.

check www.therokkercompany.com

They sell for 329.00 and I think that's too steep for the US market.

Check out Rukka's gear.

Just be prepared to take out a second mortgage to purchase it.

Both Competition Accessories, and Dennis Kirk, have kevlar khakis. As well as kevlar jeans, which may be protective enough for you. www.compacc.com & www.denniskirk.com Pretty sure they both offer free shipping if you spend a hundred bucks.

Hey John these don't look like riding pants. And they match your boyfriends clothes too.

Or how about these? Take your pick.

I might check those out. The description says "Hand treated and washed down for a stylish semi-faded look". That is right up my alley.

Why not wear just regular jeans? I know you want protection, right? Well how about gettting a set of these and let us know how you like them. They seem to fit you requirements and your budget.

I haven't gotten a set for myself yet, but they are on my list for regular riding wear. As soon as the budget allows I'm ordering a set for myself. Something about having armor on my lower limbs would make me feel a whole lot better riding in the twisties.

Johnny,

I have a pair of Olympia AirGliders 2 (jacket & pants). They are very comfortable and well made. I got them in silver because of the Texas heat.

I recently replaced them with Rev'it Turbine jacket & pants. The Rev'it are made much better and have better protection (they also are more $$$).

The Olympia's breath better.

What size are you in Olympia?

Best regards,

Shane

I crash tested the Joe Rocket kevlar jeans with CE armour in the knees. 50mph getoff with no damage to my legs. The jeans tore a bit, but the kevlar stayed intact. They look fairly normal when you are off the bike.
