Draggin Jeans...

[NSR-Rulez]

Hey, i was just wondering if anyone on here had any and if so would you recomend them.

Also do you think they would come in a 30" waist and a 34"leg as i am a lanky so and so.

As usual all replies will be appreciated.

A mate of mine has crashed his supermoto (flipped wheelies) about 3 times and not a mark on him.. he strongly reccomends them! He was doing 60mph or so on that last one too!! He broke his wrist but no gravel rash to his legs.

Cheers Sparks, i normally wear jeans and my leather jacket, but i have been thinking of some of these as they are virtually normal jeans and i can get away with wearing them at work.

They may be expensive but by the sounds of things they seem to be a top quality peice of kit.

I've got a pair, I've never tested them but your size is available.

I brought a 34 leg just so they'd tuck into my boots I normally take a 32 but they rode up when I sat down, the zip keeps popping open though on mine.

They're a comfortable fit aswell.

Bought some at the Ally Pally on Tuesday. They even came in my size which is amazing, 28" short leg. Comfy and with a funny wooly material around the knee's and arse, which is the kevlar material. Surprisingly comfy and you wouldnt notice any difference without the armour in.

I will be securing my armour in another way as it currently only velcro's on internally.

I've got a pair of Draggin's standard denim Jeans and their Combats. Both are excellent and both can pass as standard fashion off the bike. The combats in particular.

The combats i've got recently so can't comment on longetivity yet, but the jeans I've had for just over a year covered over 15000 miles with them in all weathers. (In rain you get wet, but hey what you expect from plain denim.). They are though warmer than you would think as the kevlar lining is very soft and quite a deep pile. For summer use they are far better than leathers as they are much cooler and whilst everyone else is sweltering you are enjoying the sun. That is one of the main reasons why I got them in the first place. I've got quite bad eczema and I just don't agree with sweat

The other real beauty of them is when they get grubby just stick them in the washing machine like any other pair of jeans!!

There is no 'armour' as such so in a spill they will protect you fine from gravel rash but not impact. If you had them in mind for commuting and then wearing around work/college during the day, then get some strap on off-road style armour if you are worried by this. I don't bother, I don't aim to crash (touch wood) and just accept the reduced protection.

[NSR-Rulez]

i go everywhere on my bike, long distances aswell as commuting, as i work in a shop i can be asked to work anywhere, furthest place from me so far has been the biscester store. so could be a worth while investment for me

I got them, Im rather small and I got really musclely ( fat ) legs so I had to get like a 36' size but I just wear a belt.

I ant tested them yet but the gezzer at the shop said that normal jeans to tear up rather badly if ur sliding on the ground ( but bare inmind he was selling me these jeans so I dont know if he was bullshitting or not.. )

I saw on TV the guy who invented them dragged himself behind a car at 50mph for a good 300-400 meters and said it was just a bit hot and there surposed to withstand 100mph slides.

I wish they made a full kevalar set lough, as the jeans I got only have kevalar on certain bits ( sides of the legs, knees, arse, nuts )
but atleast it protects the important bits

Oh and you can get them in alot of styles, from army coloured ones to the normal dark blue jean look

Just bought some last week from ebay for £90 + £3 delivery, was the cheapest I found:

https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DRAGGIN-JEANS-FADED-DENIM-ANY-SIZE-3-POSTAGE_W0QQitemZ4609319599QQcategoryZ30218QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

They also have a website that they sell stuff from but cheaper on ebay. Service was great, ordered on Tues and had them by Wens!

Not sure on how well they stand up to road rush yet though, and hopefully I will never find out! But read somewhere that they dragged some nutter on his ass at 90mph with them and then repeated the test as they where still usable!

One thing I will point out is that the combination of padding/sizing means that you should order a size up from usual to get a decent fit as Im usually a 32, got 34's and even them feel a bit tight...

But from what I have seen/heard !

[NSR-Rulez]

Nothing but possitive comments so far, very reassuring, i didn't think of ebay, thanks jinxy

Oh, and this is the page about testing... take with a pinch of salt as it is on their website, but makes for interesting reading anyway:

This vid of them draggin that nutter on his ass is just plain funny too!

I have seen some nice camaflouge draggin jeans that I quite liked myself, cant recall wear, could of either been busters accessories, m & p or the fastone. Unfortunately they dont do female sizing on them

Pretty comfy, got a pair of the cargos. Not Teasted yet.
Quite soft and easy to wear around when not on the bike. Got them cause when I started riding and needed some pants. Leather wasnt a priority.
Only thing is the kevlar can get a bit itchy Ive found in the heat around the crotch area. Found wearing undies works well
The cargos are a bit loser fit for me and I can chuck on me work pants under them.
I would like somewhere for armour on mine but as said a strap on kit would work well.
Sounds like there's new lines with pockets and what not for it.

I've got three pairs of Hood jeans, and rate them. They have a full kevlar lining from the waist to below the knees, so protection all over, they alter them to any length you like before they send them, and best of all they're quite a bit cheaper than draggin jeans!
