Title: Bike Jeans
Post by: Richard on June 02, 2012, 01:31:12 AM

I have been following the hooha over Maple motorcyle jeans (kevlar lined jeans) on Facebook etc and eagerly awaiting the actual price, of which mention was carefully avoided.

1941 – Kevlar® lined Maple Motorcycle Jeans - £250
1941x – Unlined Maple Motorcycle Jeans - £150

Wow.

I'll be giving those a miss.  Quite happy with my Hood Jeans, with, IMHO, better kevlar area coverage in case the jeans were to revolve in a crash.

£250 !

Blimey :o :o

That puts my 'Cherokee at Tescos' at £7.00 each in perspective.

I concur with Marshall, my last off was while wearing Hood Jeans, I was unscathed, the jeans were ripped but then that is their job and they cost a fraction of those prices. Also the black ones look good with a clerical collar.
