Draggin Jeans

Georgey Burgess

I've got into a terrible habit now of spinning to meetings from work in a pair of jeans rather than putting on all the gear and then having to change at the other end or sit in a pair of uncomfortable goretex trousers.

I'm heading to the NEC this year and was thinking of a pair of Draggin Jeans. I see theres a new pair out now that are CE approved. Anyone got a pair?

I've draggin jeans for a few years now, they are great on warm days when out for a short spin. very comfortable, but bear in mind, thay will never offer the protection of proper gear. When you're used to wearing proper gear, sometimes the draggin jeans just don't feel right - you're always concious of the lack of protection

Look up hood jeans, you can get them with armour, possible the best of both worlds

Have Sartso combats. Cooler on hot days. Handy for a local spin or cruise. Can fit armour to them also. Wouldn't be confident in them on a long spin or Sunday blast but for tipping around they are grand. Just wasn't happy in regular jeans and wanted some sort of protection.

Tried on the jeans first but they were a little tight and combats were more relaxed. Hope never to have to test them so no idea about protection and the armour would be required for impact protection.

If you can afford it get a one piece suit like an Aerostich Roadcrafter - goes on over whatever you are wearing. I use it over a suit going to meetings. Biggest problem then was getting something for the feet - most motorcycle boots look a bit strange with a suit:eek:

Ive been tempted by these kind of jocks before although I havent purchased any. How do they fair against the cold?

thanks for the replies. I prefer the styling on the draggin jeans but it's hard to judge from web pictures so i'll keep an open mind until the NEC
