Draggin Jeans + Knee armour - AzaVic - 29-12-2006
Has anyone used the draggin jeans knee armour ? They velcro on but for me, they dont stick.. not even when the jeans are not on.. I must be missing something.

Not planning on scrapping anything while wearing the draggins. :-S
Skin on my knees still bleeds when i knock them after my zx12 off 5 years ago.. Who needs skin grafts anyway. I just want some abbrasion protection for casual rides.. I bought the armour for them to keep everyone else happy.. (i.e mummy.. haha.)

Didn't know they now came with knee armour. Mine have only the kevlar stitched into them and from my perspective they worked a treat after I chucked my ST1100 down the road about 5 years ago and went sailing down the road on my arse watching my beloved bike disintergrate after hitting a culvert and flipping. One f..cked bike, but no damage to moi or the jeans. Mind you, they are comfortable and good in the hot weather, but my prefered choice is leathers.

I bought armour for my draggin' jeans and jacket, but have never taken it out of the packaging. It's so bulky that I figured I'd be better off wearing leather if I want the protection on a ride.
If someone wants them I'll see if I dig them out of the basement somewhere.

Throwdown mate I'll take that Draggin Jeans armour if that's O.K. - what's the best cash price you'd take for it?

Hi!
I think you need to check the velcro. Its sounds like the hooks are not catching. Try running a firm brush throught the hooks, this works for me with horse rugs etc. Sometimes the hooks seam to compact themselves down thus not catch.
Hope this is a help in some way.
Cheers Dee

For serious riding, you wouldn't want to come off wearing those things, I've seen the results & it wasn't pretty.
Re: ... - tenacious - 31-12-2006
I don't ride too serious mate, that's the thing.
Re: ... - BUSGO - 31-12-2006
I know we don't - BUT
Everyone SHOULD ride serious.

I had an off with cords on once, now there was some bloody knees!!! Was picking cotton out of them for weeks.
Re: Leather - mutherT - 02-01-2007
Can't beat the leather's and they look sexy too. Draggins are good for casual riding ...
