Default I want these kevlar jeans

Very happy to see a lot of manufacturers getting in on the kevlar jeans for women trend. I still have a ton of problems finding leathers that fit right, and while I know there's some controversy over kevlar jeans, it's FAR better than normal jeans- and many of them come with knee and/or hip armor options.

These just look awesome, and they have kevlar up the sides of the thighs unlike a lot of the other jeans. Plus- stretch denim is my friend and the friend of anybody with a big *** and a smaller waist.

Dude, those are cute! and they come with knee/hip protection? That's sweet. Best I've seen yet.

OK so, review of the jeans:

AWESOME. Love them, love them, love them. They're a nice heavy weight denim with just enough stretch to not be binding when you're on the bike. Kevlar runs all down the sides of the legs, butt, and from knees down. Roomy enough to fit your own pads under.

These are made for those of us blessed with a butt, thank jesus. Sizing is pretty much spot on with their measurements listed. I ordered a 12 and they're a bit big in the waist but fit comfortably otherwise.

The waistband is nice and high- no more butt crack showing while riding! YAY! Normal jeans-type pockets, boot-cut so they tuck up around your boots without sliding over your heel.

I like them so much I'll be ordering another pair shortly.

I'd have to measure, they're a few inches long on me so I'm guessing 30-31"? I'll try to pull them out today and get a real measurement for you.

Hey thanks... I was finally able to find some size charts and it seems that most are around 33"... way too short for my 36"...

Got a pair a few weeks ago. Love them! They fit perfectly, make my *** look great and yeah, no plumbers crack! I have been wanting some kevlar jeans for a while now, but these were the first I saw that were actually cute and not all gear looking. I've been wearing them at work and someone even asked if I took my car to work today, because they didn't see me change.

Love them!
