About 6 years ago I used to ride in cheapo Jeans all the time, for Dirt jumpy/trail riding in my local woods comfy cheap don't care if they get torn/dirty, but they were not really suitable for all day epics or putting in some miles, heavy and obviously normal jeans suck up water, I can see water proof jeans being handy, but then if it’s pissing it down and I’m off for a ride I’ll put on the chopped off surplus DPM which cost all of about £14 and look just as twatty as overpriced Niche boy jeans.
For £95 I could have a fair few pairs of those and wouldn’t give a toss it I took a tumble and tore a pair…
Looking good on a bike is highly overrated.
