2stroke4stroke Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 I need to replace my old Jitsie trousers, which were the nearest l could get to what I wanted at the time. Is it possible to get a reasonably protective trouser these days? I'm not interested in either skin fit lycra or wearing cammo pants. I can live with colour but don't really want large lettering. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_42woody Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) I wore proper motorcycle trousers for a couple years. I didn't like the fit, the look/style or the colors. I now wear work trousers (mechanics' trousers) and a work shirt. The outfit is extremely durable, comfortable, inexpensive and simple without bright colors or big lettering. The trousers offer plenty of room in the legs and crotch - no tightness issues when riding. I highly doubt I'll ever go back to proper motorcycle clothing. Dickies brand works very well but other brands may be just as good. Edited August 18, 2015 by b_42woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fivebrick Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Wish I could find something more sweat repellent. My britches must weigh 15 pounds after getting soaked on a hot day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialswarrior Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 The best trials gear I have come across is Thor Prime line of motocross gear. It's way, way lighter than my old Jitsies. It's the only gear I now wear."With the evolution of riding reaching new heights, we needed a gear kit that met the demands of today’s new riders. Prime gear is an evolving concept that is built around a very lightweight, breathable chassis to allow complete freedom of motion on the bike. The pant is extremely light and flexible compared with traditional pants and is intended as a "race day" or track pant. That doesn’t mean it’s not durable, it just means its not the best choice for a ride through the pucker brush and tight woods. Up top, Thor’s new Prime Fit jersey takes things to another level with it’s form-fitted sleeves and tailored torso construction resulting in reduced wind flap and interference. Utilizing a unique layered look, Thor has combined the benefits of compression technology while allowing great air circulation around the torso and excellent moisture wicking for those long hot motos. Refined chassis for increased comfort and performance. Stretch polyester-spandex chassis. Large leather inner knee panels. Double and triple stitched for durability. Ratchet style waist closure and adjustable side cinch. Sewn in liner." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialswarrior Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm currently using the Thor Prime Slice pants. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/741/43762/Thor-Prime-Slice-Pant-2014?term=thor%20prime You can't beat the price either.

english electric Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 I don't see the point in trial pants to be honest there expensive and offer no protection whtsoever. I wear them but wear work pants over the top with knee pads underneath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
