Title: Kevlar jeans, Brand new, UK brand, Trade price - £50
Post by: adeejaysdelight on 09 January 2014, 03:51:26 am
Hi Guys,


I am clearing out the last of the 2013 stock. What does not sell here will be going to the local Triumph/Yahmaha dealership & eBay. RoadRash Jeans is my own brand that I have been building for over 4 years. The jeans are designed by my myself and a design manufacturer I work with here in the UK. I have been established in the market since 2010 and sold these jeans in over 30 countries. I have a sponsored stunt rider who wears RoadRash Jeans during performances and I have worked with big brands such as Triumph and Krieger. You can find loads more info at www.roadrashjeans.com (http://www.roadrashjeans.com)


The following styles/sizes are available for immediate dispatch on a first come first served basis.


Classic - 36W/34L


Urban Rider (some light blue, some original) -


40W/34L
38W/34L
36W/34L
34W/34L
32W/34L


Ladies - 18R


Offered to foccers for £50. Courier delivery is £5 UK mainland. If 2 pairs are ordered at the same time, there will be no extra delivery charge. I will deliver worldwide at cost. I can also offer the armour pack purchased with jeans for £10 extra.


I can only accept Paypal "gift" or bank transfer to a business account at this price. I will also accept regular Paypal payment, with the charges at the buyers expense.


This is lower than the trade price. And just to be clear, these are not cheap nasty (made in China) jeans like grin factor or other junk you can buy off eBay. This is a quality product, engineered for bikers, built to a standard and not a price, that retails and sells for between £89.99-149.99 in dealerships and shops.


PM if interested.


Cheers

44W, 27L (I know).

Insomniac mate. be off to bed soon though, Im back up at half six :o

Stay in Dumbarton, and commute to Scotstoun, so collection shouldnt be an issue if you make such a feckin huge size (or I could stop being a fat foccer and go on a diet :lol)

Sorry Mick, I only have up to a 40 waist.


The legs can be altered to suit, within reason. 8 inches might be a bit much though. You could make another pair of jeans out of the cuttings  :lol .

Hi,


From the lady bikers I know and wear my jeans, none of them have mentioned any issues with sizing. This includes my Fiancee, who would not miss an opportunity like that. In addition to this, less than 1% have been returned due to sizing issues, and of those returned, all but 2 have requested a replacement. The ladies jeans are a Lycra/denim blend, so they have a bit of give too. There is only one ladies pair left, I have more of all the others. I hope this helps.

Would you have a pair of mens Urbon Rider Originals (dark blue) Size 34/34 + the Armour Pack avaliable please?
 
Many thanks; Jase (fazer390)  ;)

What do you do if I order a pair and they do not fit? I would like some 36W but I find some jeans/trousers in that size are sometimes too big or too small.
Title: Re: Kevlar jeans, Brand new, UK brand, Trade price - £50
Post by: adeejaysdelight on 09 January 2014, 01:06:09 pm
Old son - The jeans can either be turned up, as you suggest, or you could have them altered to your liking. I would say that a maximum of 10% off the leg length to keep the look of the jeans, but you could take more off if you really had to.

JoeRock - Sorry mate, I only have what is listed. The smallest regular size I do is 30 waist anyhow. Sidebar- you are going to make everyone sick if you post that your a 28 waist again :lol

Shame you don't do larger sizes. I'm a 48 waist and can't get decent kevlars:( leathers can also be a pain as you buy a larger size and they seem to think your limbs are longer, so you pay for the leathers then another 100ish quid for them to be altered! Baws, I am the size I am before anyone says go on a diet;)

Received mine yesterday. Over the moon, look fantastic quality and fit a treat. Just need some summer nights now so I can put the waterproof textiles away...


Only thing I would note is there was a smell when I opened the parcel - not sure if that's normal manufacturing smells, but twice through the washer will have them sorted :)


Thanks OP, really happy with purchase.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I did notice some of the jeans from one of the orders were a bit funky. Its the light blue ones. I think it may have been from the fabric manufacturer. It washes out though.


Andy, the ear plugs are a wee free gift I give to everyone. Have done for ages. Being a sound engineer to trade I feel it is important to protect your hearing, so its a little personal touch. Glad you liked it. Believe it or not, I am on my 5th 200 pair box and you are the first person to say thank you. That makes you one in a thousand  :D

Yep, two washes and the smell was gone, so all good. Drying on the radiator ready for the weekend :)


I found ear plugs too - thanks, appreciate the sentiment. I never bother with ear plugs for short journeys, and always forget to use them on longer journeys, even though I always keep a pair in jacket.

If anyone wants a pair of urban-rider in light with armour in 32W 34L I have a pair that I can't be arsed altering, only worn for 3 minutes, it seems I've not got as fat as I thought I had.  :)
Cost to me was £65 so that is the cost to you lot.
Shame you don't have 30W 32L as they look to be good quality.

So not having this sort of garment before i was surprised how normal(thin) the material is.
,
I expected a thicker,meaning stronger kind of feel to the fabric,


So what are these Jeans supposed to do to the wearer in the way of protection?

The thickness of the denim matters not mate. It could be an inch thick, but as soon as you show it to tarmac at 70mph, it is gone. Its only cotton after all. And in the war of cotton vs tarmac, the black stuff wins every time.


The jeans are not supposed to do anything to the wearer. It is what they prevent from being done that is important. The yellow fabric inside is called Kevlar. It is made by a French company called DuPont. Kevlar is 5 times stronger than steel pound for pound. It is incredibly tear and heat resistant by nature. That is good news for us bikers as it is also soft and pliable, can be machine washed and fitted to almost anything.


There is plenty more info on my website, if you are interested.

It's an interesting question this one as we are programmed to think that thick is better arent we but then how long would our hands last during an off if we were wearing big thick full of fluff ski gloves.............about 2 seconds.

When i came off i was wearing a pair of standard jeans but i may as well have worn my tracksuit bottoms and saved myself a good pair of jeans as i dont think it would have made any difference.
 
My old man is all anti fabric altogether as fabrics have a tendency to catch and snag if you come off whereby leather slides.....i know he's right but the point in me getting the kevlar jeans is this....they are easy to put on and comfortable while riding.....1 factor in me just keeping my jeans on that day was that my leather trousers are such a pain in the arse to get on and not the most comfortable so when i was just nipping a couple miles to get the mot i didnt bother with them.....much to my demise! :o
 
So now if im silly enough to have another one of these moments i can chuck on the Kevlars....a compromise still over leather yes but more enjoyable.....plus if we get a mega hot summer they'll be ideal and save me sticking to the inside of my leather onesy and dehydrating into a bag of Smash. 8) :sun 8) :sun 8) :sun 8) :sun 8)

Your spot on there Nogg. Kevlar jeans are not a replacement for your leathers, they are a replacement fro your jeans. FACT.


Popping down the road a few miles means you are on the bike a shorter amount of time, therefore decreasing the likleyhood of being in a collision. And before anyone jumps in with "most accidents happen within 5 miles of home", I know this. But that is because most driving is done within 5 miles of home and % wise, you are no more likely to crash near home that anywhere else if we compare minute to minute statistics.


As to the RoadRash Kevlar jeans, they have undergone testing and showed good resistance to wear, heat and tears over <5 seconds. Furthermore, a return customer of mine called me a couple of months back to tell me about his off. He was heading down the on ramp, giving it some welly, when a daft smidsy decided to pull some crazy move and T-boned him (or he T-boned her actually). He went arse over tit, over the bonnet of the car after hitting the wing Starsky and Hutch style, and slid down the road from 70+ to a halt. His 3 y/o GSXR Thou was a write off, as was his helmet. He hurt his knee and both his wrists. His RoadRash Jeans were fine. He said he can still wear them, although a "bit" of the stitching came off one of the rear pockets. He had on the Cammy ones at the time, and they were about 2 years old when he crashed. That's 2 years of him wearing them to work as an Electrician in construction, with tools in the pockets, up and down ladders, through all weathers.


I am quite happy with that result.

Sorry Mick, I only have up to a 40 waist.


The legs can be altered to suit, within reason. 8 inches might be a bit much though. You could make another pair of jeans out of the cuttings  :lol .
I won't bother asking if they come in mehaveallegedlymanybrekkiestop size then  ;)
