Bikers Gear Australia New Modern Chino Style Kevlar Lined Protective Motorcycle Jeans with CE 1621-1 Protection

Superb motorcycle jeans for casual use. Safe and good quality
I've used them on few rides to get a honest review.First of all - they are very comfortable, and they look like normal jeans. Made out of kevlar, which give you that extra level of protection. inside, you have a hip protection pocket, and a knee protection pocket, which is adjustable. That means, you can place your knee protector exactly where you want, and it will stay there, even after few washes velcro still works great.They are warm, but not roasting - Ideal for 17C and above, wouldnt use above 30 as apart from normal material vents, they have nothing more and can be a bit to warm.Quality is superb - they feel very premium and safe. Protection which is provided is not great, and i will upgrade it with something safer - but there are protectors attached and this is fantastic as they are usable and fairly comfortable, just not most elastic.I washed them couple of times, and they still look great. They tend to dry out quick, althout material is thick.Great value for the price

Great trousers.
Really impressed with these. Sizing is perfect and they’re stretchy too. Extremely comfortable on. Highly recommended.

Great but know why you want them
These trousers are great for what they are. They are comfortable and airy for the summer but have a Kevlar lining and CE protection in the knees. The hip armour is nothing but a piece of thin plastic foam. The only protection it could offer would be insulation from wind and cold.FIT AND COMFORT.I bought size 34r. I am 6ft (1.82m) and have a 34” (86cm) waist and a 32” (81cm) leg. The trousers are very stretchy and fit nicely over my riding boots (brown Haix British Army issue). Whilst they do stay up, I always wear a belt. The material is soft, very comfortable and does not scratch my legs.Whilst this is in no way a criticism, the top of the knee armour did irritate my knees slightly when off the bike and walking around. This was due, in part, to being correctly positioned in the trouser armour pocket - I did not have to do any adjustments at all. The other reason was that the armour was pushed against the knees by the tight but stretchy material. This issue was totally resolved once I replaced the armour with D30 ghost inserts which are thinner and with edges which are more profiled and so softer. Also, D30 moulds to the body with body heat, a feature fully exploited with the tight but stretchy material.WHILST RIDING.I ride a BMW R1200GS and bought these trousers as a protecting layer between spring and early autumn for casual slow considered riding only. I would not want to be in an accident wearing these as the material will rip and the hip armour is just a cheap bit polyurethane sheet. I immediately replaced hip and knee armour with D30 ghost inserts).I bought these as I wanted some trousers to put on that did not make me look like a biker but assured me some protection from wind and that were cool to wear in summer. I wanted riding trousers for quick visits and spontaneous drop-ins to friends and family. When wearing these, I ride under 40mph, never filter or overtake and do not accelerate aggressively. The reason for this is that I do not consider these trousers to be safety equipment and I have other clothing options for serious riding.I did think that, being an Australian brand, these might somehow be in the same camp as Bilabong, Blundstone or Dryza Bone. They are not. They are sold from China via Australia; reading the tags and labels reveals the grammatical and cultural errors.If you want a cheap casual riding trouser then this is good for that but know that they are not for riding at any level of performance. They are good for going undercover biker - which was what I wanted them for. They are cooler in summer than leather and textile and, with the armour inserted, offer more protection than a good pair of jeans. They will need washing regularly as the colour is very light. I might spray them with scotch guard to reduce the ability for ride dust and dirt to stick.I hope that this helps someone make up their mind one way or another.Ride safe.

At last bike trousers supremely comfortable
This is my 3rd pair, 1 of each colour over last 2 years. Superbly comfortable and even quite fashionable off bike. Now bought a maxi scooter even more suitable. Highly recommended

Great looking well made Chinos with good protection.
These chinos fit and hang really well. They look smart enough to wear in the office without looking like you're wearing a diving suite. The sizing is accurate, they're very comfortable to wear too, since the material is slightly stretchy and soft. They are very well made and the material and stitching appears to be robust so there's no reason that they shouldn't last for years. I'm really pleased that I've at last found some decent motorcycle trousers that actually fit well and look smart enough to wear at work straight off from the bike - yet they are not massively expensive at less than 80 sovs.All in all, they're a great buy and I'm more than happy to recommend them.

Best value for money
Really nice. Half way between jeans and trousers. Slim/skinny cut depending on how thick your legs are. Feel like good quality heavy duty material.Quality is really good considering the price, way better than expected. The jeans themselves don’t feel in any way inferior to £150 - £200 motorcycle jeans. Only place they’re let down is the included armour and armour pockets which don’t feel premium. I can’t really mark them down though because you can just use armour from some of your other jeans or buy some better stuff for not much money.The colour is a nice beige, which is better than it shows in the pictures.Would highly recommend these.

They’re OK for the money, but you get what you pay for!
I wanted an alternative to my Rexel suit, that I can go into a shop/cafe etc without looking like Robocop, and these fit the bill. They will provide nowhere near the level of protection the Rexel trousers do, but for the price, I didn’t expect them to. For some reason, they are a “skinny fit” cut around the calf, which I find irritating even in standard jeans and so never purchase.In summary, they probably provide more protection than an ordinary pair of jeans (but not much more) and they look OK. I probably won’t buy them again because of the “skinny fit”.

way too bog
ordered usual size of 34" waist and short leg.The leg length was perfect but the waist was 4" too bog. returned for refund and then will order smaller waist size. the option to exchange for the smaller size was not an option in the return web pages.
