Default Advice on jeans

I was thinking of getting some ridding pants. Maybe like Bilt iron workers or something similar. Anyone wear them or Kevlar pants?

You won't get pulled over as much if you wear pants.

I have Sliders. They run about one size big. Works well for me.

I have the Built kevlar jeans. I bought them a size too large and they're a little baggy. It's good in the winter so I easily can put on a tight pair of sweat pants under them. I do wish the front pockets were deeper though.

I mostly wear them for winter or traveling. I wear regular jeans for daily riding.
