Kevlar jeans, Brand new, UK brand, Trade price - £50

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) un 8) un 8) un 8) un 8)
