Went out on the hunt today for a pair of riding jeans - those nice kevlar reinforced ones with padding. I wish Levi's made something like that - best jeans ever - if u got 100 horses under you it seems fitting to wear jeans ;) Well I lucked out - so who knows where I should go for a pair of these?

There is a shop in Waterkant street opposite tracmac. No to sure of there name but you can get them in black or denim. A friend or mine uses them and says the fit well. They have kevlar on the rear (bum) and knee s. No padding though. Hope that helps.

The one in Waterkant St is called City Cycles; also try Leather Forever in Durban Road who keeps a wide variety at good prices. Ride Safe

Hi There y dad just bougfht a pair of jeans from Leather Forever and he is very happy. They are very close to Hamman Motorrad, but in the main drag just down from the 24hour chemist. Marie is a real gem. I had not seen her for years, but she remembered me and even remebered what job I did. She took my dad's measurements and made sure the jeans fitted perfectly, no charge. While I was waiting, I looked at some leathers and she asked me what I was interested in. I told her that my leathers bought from them no longer fitted very well. Instead of trying to sell me more leathers, she told me to just bring them in and they would adjust them.This tells me that they are more service oriented, rather than being in it for a fast buck.

Thanks Freak, the price looks about right and the jeans look nice too. I will come in and have a look in November when I get back. I want a pair for the summer. The reason I ask about the fly is that I used to have a pair of 'Unisex' BMW leathers which drove me nuts as the zip opened to the left. I had to learn to *p* again so as not to get any on my trouser legs! :shocked:
