I'm always in for this argument
I slid on my arse at 50kph for 100 mtrs (had a bit of help with speed as there was a Transit bumper at my back) and only had a bit of gravel rash on my bum - but I was wearing Wranglers,not cheap Levi shit.I nearly wore through the leather belt at my hip once,but there was not a mark on my Levi cords (flares) even though the rivets left burn marks.Slid for at least 30 mts on my back wearing an oilskin parka - not a mark on it.I could go on,but you get the idea.
I always wore leather,the whole kit,25 yrs ago when a leather jacket was all that was worn.I wear cordura and hard armour these days because I'm after impact protection,I hope my sliding for metres days are over.
