Draggin Jeans

I'm thinking about getting a pair of Draggin Jeans.  If anyone has them  do  you have the armor that goes with them?  How does the armor attach to the jeans and what do you think of them?
Ride on!

The armour attaches with velcro....for more info go to

I've had draggin jeans for around 8 years (2nd set of jeans) and also have the Draggin Jacket.  I find them brillant for round town in summer but I don't have the armour, and I rarely wear the draggin gear outside of town.  I'm still a firm believer that nothing protects like dead cow...

I have a pair. I tested them for everyone a few months ago with a 35mph lowside. They held up well. Now I only slid 12-15 feet and the denim wore thru but the kevlar was unfazed.
No armor though.

I can't guarentee it, but I think our draggin jeans on this side of the pond may not be the same as yours down under. Ours are made in the next town over from me at a place called fast company http://www.dragginjeans.com/  The info. should be on their site

I don't leave home without them......Unless I have leather on instead.

i had a pair on when i totaled out my bandit a few years back. hit a corner to fast and lost the bike into a guard rail. went into a tamk slapper and high sided the bike. i slid about 30 feet. was moving at a good pace. and they held up better then my poor bandit did. wore in a few places and a rip in the crotch but held together. no road rash at all. cant say the same for my bike tough broke the frame on it.
