Looks like a great idea. I wear regular jeans 75% of the time, so this makes alot of sense.

That's very interesting and you can wear that under anything. I wonder how hot it is in the summertime, but might help to keep warmer in winter. Does anyone know what kind of armor is in those, or is it just padding? I emailed them to find out.

Wow this is a great product! I would guess that at least 80% of us wear jeans while riding so this is perfect for us. I also like the shirt they sell as well. The price is very reasonable as well.
If anyone has tried them please post how comfortable they are. |

Looks interesting, something I might use. Bohn back protectors are well respected.

Hm. Interesting, but I'd have to buy all new jeans for these to fit underneath. :P I'll just stick to overpants.

I've got two pair for wearing under street clothes. It's mostly unnoticeable under jeans although I have found that the knees tend to bunch up a little when walking so it's a little evident that there's something going on under your pants. Also the hip pads make it a little hard to wear jeans that ride a little low. Otherwise They work well. I wear them under my kevlar reinforced riding jeans.
