I haven't looked online, but I've been to all the local shops looking for exactly this. Unfortunately the only jeans any of them stock are unbelievably cheesy - low crotch, wide legs and seams all over. Surely someone out there is making motorcycle jeans with a decent fit. |

Maple jeans out of the UK are getting good reviews. Heavy denim with D30 impact panels. Expensive but I think I'll try a pair as they make a slim pair along with the regular cut jeans. |

I don't know if Draggin Jeans look like 505's but they are good jeans and I''ve been wearing them for years. http://www.dragginjeans.com/ |

Meant to add I want to be $200 or under all in; Maple looks like they start at about $400 :thumb down: The only thing that has kept me from Dragin Jeans is the extra material above and below the knees; same with Sliders. Maybe these although reviews make it sound like the knee pads move around: http://www.compacc.com/p/agv-sport-cors ... ns/1001002 |

I purchased Draggin Jeans off ebay that had the tags removed. Here's the pants turned inside out. ![]() I like them and they are quite comfortable. They are true to size too. My first pair I purchased a longer inseam than I wear and they were 2" too long. ![]() I did pretty good, I got the Teknic leather jacket and two pair of armored jeans for $200 shipped ![]() Jeff |

"I did pretty good, I got the Teknic leather jacket and two pair of armored jeans for $200 shipped" Good; you stole them! I'll have to check ebay. Any thoughts on knee pads? |
