Draggin jeans?

[helenoftroy]

Hi Joliet

Its hard at the start with having to buy gear-costs mount up

I have Draggin cargos which are incredibly comfortable.I find them warm in winter but just fine in summer too.I brought cargos cause i always wear knee armour with them.Mine are size 10,and Im a 10/12 in other jeans so fairly true to size.

Mainly wear the Draggins on the trail bike and have a pair of old but fine leather pants(got of trade-me)that i mainly wear on the road bike

Good luck with the search

Look forward to meeting you

I just went and dropped battery acid on my Draggins. (On the upper front leg part, where there's no kevlar lining.)



One month old, $250, and I can now poke a finger through them...

Hey just go and buy a iron on smiley / or patch that will fix your hole

Cost sure does mount up .. I dread to think how much it'll cost to upgrade my gear when I get a 'proper' bike bring on the high paid IT job at the end of my study, eh?

Cheers for the input Look forward to meeting you one day too

Think of it this way...
Good gear does cost, but if you buy good gear from the start you wont have to shout out more later down the track to replace it. Make sense?

Just cause your on a small bike, doesnt mean you cant have good gear.

Spend the money... you wont be sorry.

If I had the money, I'd definitely be spending it, but at the moment I don't plan to get into debt on bike gear. I do have boots, a new helmet, gloves and a leather jacket, but I've pretty much exhausted my savings on them. I have a pair of leather trousers given to me by Flame but they need to be altered to fit me. And worry not, I'm not even riding my bike properly yet. Being a poor student sucks, and thankfully I've managed to get everything either second hand or at a good price, hence why I wanted to get the Draggins on Trademe.

I have had my jeans for a few years and find them very comfortable. I am the typical short wide variety and had to try on a few before I got the right ones and then had to have a waist adjustment done. I purchased mine from Don at Cycletreads. Excellent Service as per the norm from that shop!
