I need gear suggestions!

So, I've been looking around...
Thinking of getting some Duluth Trading Fire Hose pants and wearing some alpinestars knee pads under them. Looking at : MN Fire Hose Logger's Pants - Duluth Trading Company OR Work Pants - Men's Fire Hose 5-Pocket Jeans - Duluth Trading Company
I will mostly be doing riding around town, and up to 60 MPH...I've read many reviews of people using normal jeans, and some people say they've crashed at 65 in them and had no road rash, some say they busted at 10MPH. The general idea was, thinker denim is better. The 5 pockets use 13oz denim, so hopefully that would be okay? Anybody use these before?
Next, gloves... SP-8 Leather Glove | Alpinestars Thoughts?
Jacket...I'm not sure? I'm thinking a used leather jacket is my best bet.
Boots : Maybe these?

I'm not 100% sure actually. There's no Ducati dealerships near me so I can't give you a definitive answer.I've just been looking at them on RevZilla and Sportbike Track Gear
