I Tried 7 Ways To Protect My Legs. Only One Actually Worked.
Let me save you the time, the money, and the skin I almost lost.
Over the past 4 years I have tried $90 kevlar lined jeans, a $400 pair of leather pants, bulky textile overpants, strap on knee guards that never stayed put, armored leggings that looked ridiculous, and some $50 armored jeans off Amazon with great reviews.
Six failures. One winner. Here is the difference.
For 32 years I geared up the same way. Helmet, armored jacket, gloves, good boots. Then from the waist down, plain denim.
I never thought about it until a pickup turned left in front of me. My legs were the one place I left wide open. They are the first thing to hit and the last thing anyone protects.

I always pictured the crash as the impact. It is not the impact that takes your skin. It is the slide after it.
A body slides four to six seconds on asphalt. Denim lasts about half a second. The RoadArmor shell takes the slide so your skin never has to.

Here is why I stayed in denim so long. Every real riding pant I tried was bulky, stiff, or looked like a costume.
These look like normal pants. Nobody at the diner looks twice. The armor is hidden inside where you cannot see it.
→ See them up closeI was skeptical too. But with free CE Level 2 armor, a free belt, and 60 days to send them back, there was nothing to lose.

My old strap on knee guards slid around, so I stopped wearing them.
These have CE Level 2 armor built into the knee and hip pockets. It stays exactly where it needs to be, every single ride. The damage happens to the gear, not to you.

My $400 leathers hung in the garage from June to September. Too hot to wear.
These have a ventilated 4 way stretch layer that moves air. They stay on my legs in July instead of on a hook. Gear only protects you if you actually wear it.

Over 50,000 Riders Made The Switch
"Jeans are too hot in Florida and I wanted better protection for my legs. I have already suffered leg damage so I know the importance of protection."
"Thank God I have been that person for over 40 plus years riding with jeans on. I keep seeing too many people going down with jeans on. Not me anymore."
"Look cool, I feel safe. Finally gear that doesn't look like gear. What more can I say."
"Buddy of mine went down in jeans. Took him 5 to 6 months to heal. I am not doing that. These go on every ride now."
60 Day Money Back Guarantee
Wear them on real rides. A Sunday run, a long trip, a 95 degree afternoon. If they are not right for any reason, email us. Full refund. Free size swaps. No questions.
P.S. You already wear the helmet, the jacket, the gloves. The legs were the one gap, and for most of us it stays a gap until the day it costs us. I tried six other things first and wasted years doing it. Start with the pair that actually worked, and you have 60 days to decide for yourself.
