The Icon Strongarm 2 Pants is a quality street-riding jean developed by Icon who has over a decade of category experience in reinforced denim. This denim pant features Aramid reinforced knee panels, tough denim chassis, and ICON's relaxed street fit. With Icon's no b.s. policy regarding this category, they are surely crafing the past, present, and future one stitch at a time.

Key Features

Icon relaxed fit
Durable denim chassis
Abrasion resistant Aramid reinforced knees
Size 38

Okay so they arrived today, and I must say I'm NOT impressed, but it my fault for not reading more carefully.

They only have added protection in the knees, that's it. I've have other Kevlar pants, and they provide better protection, knees, backside, etc....

One would think/hope that ICON would be equal, if not better than most, in this case they are not.

I did get them at a good price, so I'm not too disappointed, but I wouldn't pay full price for them.
