RE: who wears Kevlar lined jeans?
Jedd those are nice looking jeans but 2 things bothered me about them in the reviews. A 60 year old complained the waist to crotch was too short and many reviewers said the knee pads were in the wrong place. I had already picked out size, color and armor to purchase before reading the reviews, Now that is on hold.

That is the reason that I like knee protectors directly on my knees and not in a pocket in my jeans , they will move most the time when crashing .

Brosh (Israel) makes Kevlar motorcycle riding pants and sells in USA and AU

Any decision on jeans, Ferret? By the way, some of the ones listed by people are not Kevlar lined, but you probably figured that out already.

RE: who wears Kevlar lined jeans?
No, no decision yet. I think I find one I like and then either find out they are low rise, or cost $350.00, or the knee pads end up on the thighs when sitting. I'm almost about to give up even looking.

RE: who wears Kevlar lined jeans?
I found a place that will line your regular jeans with Kevlar. Actually, they line just about anything. I'm thinking of getting some chinos lined for wearing to work.

RE: who wears Kevlar lined jeans?
Cool that might be a great option. You supply the jeans and they line them. Are they familiar with impact/ slide area for motorcycles?

Israeli company. I also found one in Finland

Interesting concept. I'm more than a little surprised that a US company didn't pop up on my google search, but I'm still looking. Oh, and not because I'm big on "Buy American", but because I think the shipping costs might be lower.
