Lined throughout with abrasion resistant knitted Kevlar (not the cheaper woven type) and reinforced with DyneemaTM, Draggin Jeans survived abrasion testing in key contact areas for 4.4 seconds, more than twice the duration of most other Denim/Kevlar products on the market. Seams that are triple stitched with furniture grade thread, and then cross stitched for extra confidence, survived the burst tests.
With CE-approved impact protectors at hips and knees too, the C-Evo jeans offer serious levels of protection. In fact they are tested and approved to the same standard as Dainese's new Laguna Seca leather suit. Available in sizes 28"-44" waist and ladies size 6-18, priced at £259.99 including VAT.

CE Approved Draggin Jeans now available in the UK
Written by Leigh Godson
Fully CE Approved and now in the UK
The Key Collection
Following five years of research and development, Draggin's C-Evo jeans - the first in the world to receive full CE approval - are now available to UK riders. Independently tested and approved by SATRA (UK) to EN 13595-1, the standard that applies to leather and textile motorcycle suits jackets and trousers, the C-Evo jeans had to survive testing for abrasion resistance, seam burst strength, cut resistance and impact protection.
