Nup.
it's not home time yet. I'll tuck 'em in when it's time to go. (Into my bike pants, that is - they won't tuck into the boots, coz they're too fat.)

I've been seeing alot of riders walking around in their bike boots and jeans this week.

The question is, do you wear your jeans tucked into your boots, or over them so it appears as though you are just wearing shoes?

Personally, I think blue jeans tucked into black boots looks ridiculous, so its jeans over for me.

How say the rest of you?

You are absolultey right....it does look kinda 'Village People' but I dont wear jeans when riding so not relly an issue. Though in saying that, I went and got a warrant the other day...2 min ride so wore jeans and had to tuck the fuckers in...thank god for Helmets....

Yes.
Bike pants go over (won't tuck into boots), and jeans tuck in (won't go over boots).
But (however!), if by some weird fluke of fate I wore my old StylMartin boots, I could (and did) wear the jeans over the top.
The problem is, y'see, my StylSafe boots are all full of carbon fibre goodness, the "boot within a boot" thing is going on, and they're just toooooo friggen fat to cover up. Even my Spidi trou have to have their wideness maximised to fit over them.

The only solution is that you'll just have to invest in some wide-ass flares then.

You didn't ride a bike in the 70s then?

My jeans definitely wont fit over boots but I will freely admit that I would choose to wear them like that because I like it. I normally wear black jeans on the bike cos they are a bit high waisted, so im matching with my boots anyway haha

Cowboy boots = Awesome.

Yup, too true but don't wear 'em when riding nowadays but once upon a time that was all I used..trou over the top of them.

Stick with me steel-caps and gaiters now.

I voted tucked in, but i do both. Often I wear jeans to school (tidy ones, not scruffy holey ripped things!) and "untuck" them when I get there. Students sometimes ask me about my boots and are like "whoar miss" when I tell them that they are indeed motorbike boots. I don't care what they look like while I'm riding, but do think they're a bit dorky if you're at your destination and still tucked in. (Have been known to occassionally do that too, as it doesn't really worry me if i look daggy every now and again).

Tucked in for me thank you. Infact the last time I bought jeans I deliberately bought ones with boot legs for tucking in. The only exception is when I'm not walking around with my helmet and jacket because that WOULD just look dumb.

Double that up with the fierce vibrations of a Vtwin, and Central Station gets the Deadly Numbness treatment...Hours of fun trying to revive it though!

Oh I used to get that something chronic on the FXR when I had Mrs Oakie on the back because I'd get forced right to the front where the seat was thinest. I'd get off the bike and not be able to feel anything in entertainment area. As it wore off over a few minutes it would go all tingly and damn it if sometimes didn't feel quite pleasant. I get the same now after a decent blast on the exercycle. Ohhhh, as the song says " hurts so good".

Me - most of the time head to top in leather. Very rarely jeans and if so - outside the boots. Leathers inside as they do not go over.

I've been watching a few Youtube stunt videos lately - man what a pack of dorks those USA boys are - not only are they doing it on busy public roads it appears the American idea of riding gear is jeans and a t-shirt. I am surprised in the many accident shots how lucky they are.

I tell you - its a good way of putting you off wheelies!
