I wear 31 or 32x30 jeans and bought a pair of www.newenough.com/teknic_sport_leather_pants_page.htmSport leather pants in size 32. The waist fitmet was OK but the rest of it was huge! The length is good they look good when sitting on the bike. The metal zippers scratch my hand when trying to use the one hip pocket. The best part about these baggy pants is that they will fit over my jeans so I use them for commuting (100 miles a day - mostly freeway), I paid $80 for them used on ebay and can't complain about the value. I went down in these once and they just got scuffed. Saved my arse! |

I have the same pants and find that they do run a little big (of course I wear a size 38 so they prolly wanted to use the whole cow....) been down a few times on the supermoto bike while wearing them and they have done a good job protecting. I wear a set of MX pads by vtop under them to fill out what the cheeseburgers can't. teknic sport pant:  underprotection similar to what I use(Vtop no longer available):   |

I bought my brother a pair of Dainese under armor for Christmas which looks similar to those VTops. How do you like them? I like the tail bone protection on those.

I bought my brother a pair of Dainese under armor for Christmas which looks similar to those VTops. How do you like them? I like the tail bone protection on those. the pants pictured are similar to the v-tops that I use but are act made by sixsixone. looks like vtop may have disappeared. I like using the mx style padding when riding esp. when doing the supermoto thing (you haven't lived until you perform a perfectly executed 50mph highside...)where you crash on a seemingly regular basis. most of these protective undergarments breathe well and are fairly comfortable, remember that they were designed for MX which is way more physical than all but the most serious of roadracing(2 years roadrace,5 years crosscountry/hare scramble/4 years arena/motocross, and 1 year supermoto. mostly amateur) |
