I have two pair of riding jeans as well as a full leather suit, and I will always wear one or the other. I bought the suit for the track but when I know Im going up to the twisties I still wear it.
As for the jeans its more for short casual rides. I have faith in them but to an extent. Not every crash is the same and you cant expect to cover all your bases all the time. However it is better than regular jeans or dare I say shorts which we all see people riding in all the time.
If price is an issue when it comes to buying gear, do what I do..ask yourself "if I were lying in the hospital right now after a crash and someone offered to take the rash/pain/bone break away with an certain amount of money (however much that gear costs) would I pay it"? If so there is your answer to the quesion of "is this gear worth it?"
