Looking for riding jeans that:
Look and it like Levi's 505's
Do not have a seam above and below the knee
Kevler at knees and seat
CE knee armor that doesn't move around in the pocket

Do these exist?

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:

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. :oops: Walms purchased them, maybe he has a comment on how he likes them.

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?
