Favor from carolinakid
Nice looking jean, a little high priced IMHO but they are supposed to offer protection.
Does Kevlar really offer abrasion protection ? I'm not sure this is what I found: * Kevlar Close weave kevlar is effective but doesn't slow you down (the world is waiting for a kevlar suit with little moulded rubber lumps on it for braking). Unfortunately, most of the kevlar used in protective clothing is loose or open- weave type. This is not much good because the first impact with the ground destroys the weave of the kevlar and there is little left to protect the skin. If there are two layers then the performance is much better because the first layer protects the second layer which does the sliding.
