Randy San Rafael,  CA Great pants! And they have short inseam available! This is my first motorcycle jean. I wanted some Jeans that were thick material, came with knee protectors rather than buying them separate. I also needed jeans with a shorter inseam. Good enough, these jeans offered all of them. The thickness of the jeans is a lot thicker than regular jeans which is great. The knee protectors dangle at my shins when I walk around but when I'm on the bike, they seem to sit right. I ended up just removing them and used a full knee/shin protector from a* just for more protection for my shins/knees and confidence. The legs have enough clearance for the different protectors. I got the dark blue color jeans. Wish they were a little darker, but look better than the light color jeans on the website. I usually where a 36 waist and ordered that size. The fit was perfect but I’m used to low rise jeans, so I think when I purchase my next pair I'll get a size up for a slightly looser feel in the waist area...or lose weight. Whichever comes first. Overall as my first moto jeans I'm happy with my purchase. Extra material in the seat and knees also. Motorcycle Superstore shipping was insanely fast.

Krisb Olympia,  WA Cortech DSX Denim These pants come a bit large (fuller cut) compared to a normal pair of jeans, but the waist was right for my size, and they were definitely comfortable on the bike. The knee pads hit perfectly on my knee while riding but do ride low while walking. I bought them in order to ride in Utah in the low 90's. They were nice and breathable - even with the leather inserts. They feel heavy to walk around in, but I'm glad I got them and will come in handy the next time I ride in warmer weather.

Kriston Fontana,  CA great pants The pants are very thick compared to regular denim. They are very broken in, not stiff. However I rated it a 4 only because I wear low-rise jeans and these are not low-rise. so for me the waist area seemed to ride high. That being said the leather panels in the knees seat and crotch area are also a plus. The armor in the knee seems to be able to take some abuse as well. I like the fact that even if you take out the knee armor, the jeans and leather panels themselves are way better than normal jeans. Thanks MCSS for quick shipping and no hassle.

Alan Walker Santa Maria,  CA Some Remorse I already had a pair of ICON jean riding pants but decided I would try something else. I ordered a little more length in the legs of the Cortech pants and I liked that. I was surprised that I could tell the difference between the ICON 14 wt. fabric and the 13.5 wt. fabric of the Cortech pants. The 14 wt. is definitely heavier. The Cortech pants have a little body armor for the knees, but because the pants are so loose I am not sure how practical it is. Overall I think I prefer the ICON pants because of the weight of the fabric, the stretch panels, and the fit.

Larry Mill Valley,  CA Great Buy The pants are worth every penny. I bought them for casual use, not wanting to wear my armored leather or fitted textile pants on more serious rides. They can be used as over-pants if you get one size larger than your normal size. The fit is loose and the knee protectors can be removed or repositioned for both sport riding and up-right touring. Plenty of pockets to hold your stuff, just like ordinary jeans.

John V Ossining,  NY Tired others. Cortech DSX better. I tried a few other denim pants before I found these. These by far had better protection and a much better fit for me. I wear a 36x30 in Gap and American Eagle jeans. I did return 36x30 I got for 36x32 because in the riding position I wanted the pants to go lower. The quality is fantastic. The knee pads fit great and offer protection on top of the layer of leather and denim on top of it. I have the Cortech Sport trunk bag which also has an excellent fit and finish. So far I have been extremely happy with Cortech products.

Skip Brackbill East Hampton,  CT Cortech - DSX Denim Pants Great price, excellent value. Sizing a little large, maybe about a half an inch to an inch on the waist. They may seem a little long when standing, but the length is just right for me when sitting on the motorcycle.

James Seattle,  WA These are VERY baggy Very well made pair of jeans with leather panels over the knees and butt. Nice for around town on a warm day, I put Shift Racing Knee/Shin guards underneath them for longer trips and/or freeway. My only issue is that they are super baggy, and the waist seems to run just a bit small relative to jeans you'd by at your local department store. I might get a pair of Draggin' regular fit jeans to compare and have an additional pair of riding jeans.

Pollyanne Los Angeles,  CA Not bad I wanted some cooler pants with some protection for summer commuting. The price was reasonable, and they fit ok according to usual jean waist sizes. But they are more of an 'urban' baggy style. I want my knee pads to stay in place not roll with extra fabric if I need them, so I had the legs tailored.

Leonard Tampa,  FL Good product The fit is true to size but baggier in the legs than I expected. But, the jeans have been comfortable when I ride and they look good when I am off the bike. You have to adjust the knee pads to get the right fit for you.
