Guys, my Hood jeans came yesterday but I’m not entirely happy with them. I realise I have to make compromises for style/comfort and safety but I just don’t think I could get on with these… They’re very loose around the thighs and don’t seem to fit great – maybe I needed a size down but when I fitted the bulky hip and knee armour it did somewhat tighten up but didn’t feel great.

The problem is when it comes to riding I’m just going to grab my stretchy slim fit comfy fk jeans being brutally honest.

Has anyone found some dedicated jeans which are comfortable and provide decent levels of safety without looking like ill-fitting ASDA George £5 specials?

Even if they don’t have adequate padding I could always invest in some of those slip on knee armour.

Cheers for any input.

Next summer I'll be buying one of these http://www.motolegends.com/brands/furygan/furygan-...

My brother's got one and it's really comfy and comes with these new D3O 'hardening on impact gel' thingies that help a lot with comfort.
They look perfect tbh!! Do you know how furygan sizes run?

In most jeans I'm a 32" but in trousers I'm a 34".

I went for 34" on the Hoods but I could have done with 32's tbh.

My local store has some Draggin’s so going to get down there soon. I tried on their oil skin or whatever they’re called and again not impressed with the fit. They have some camo ones which I will try on.

Maybe a problem I have is that I wear my jeans quite low as I prefer the comfort rather than having them around my waist like a mature adult. wink

(I don’t wear them under my backside mind you… that would be way too gangster).

Do they?

My bedside lamp talks to me and tells me to kill Russian hookers.

What do these jeans say to you?
Don't kill them! Pass them this way. smile

How did you find the fit of them? True to casual jeans?
