I really loved this jeans and wore them to many of my rides since I purchase them. Of course, I had no problems until I needed them to work.
They fail to protect my skin as they are intended on low speed (under 20mph) corner slide on gravel. They behaved like regular jeans and the inner lining tear down like it was cotton. Photos show the damage.
Buyer beware, they did not work as expected.
Man, these are LONG. So long that when off the bike, they could pass for footie pajamas. I can easily trip over them. I'd never be able to wear them casually since I'd have to roll a good 4-5" up. They also will not fit over top my Sidi adventure boots, and barely fit over my Sidi race boots. It's a pretty straight cut, not relaxed, and definitely not slim (thank god) that might benefit from a bit of boot cut at the bottom. The PLUS side to this is that they fit perfectly on the bike (in my case a Triumph Tiger). No bunching, no tight spots, no having to pull them up or down to cover plumbers crack. Supremely comfortable in riding position. I wanted a pair of jeans with pockets for hip and knee armor- which these do--as I was tired of wearing leathers that stuck to me after a half hour once the temp gets over 70. Got some soft armor, and barely know they are there. Takes a bit of finagling to get the knee armor in position; I may look at adding some velcro to the pads themselves. Kevlar liner in the right spots also adds some worry-free riding. All in all, a good buy and I'd look at Scorpions other offerings as well.
I just got them, tried them on and they fit perfectly. I normally wear a 36, ordered the 36 and they fit great. It has pockets for the armor, which isn't included, but I found some that I already had and it fit well. The armor lines up with where my knees are.... so that's a plus.
the denim is soft, but lined from the waist to the knee area with kevlar. There are also pockets for hip armor. For the price, these seem like a nice jean. I may order the blue in the future.
it's a ykk zipper, which is nice too.
The pocket depth is good, average depth for jeans.
The cut is straight. not too tight or baggy.
I can wear these to casual dress as work and not look like an alien.
Note: After wearing them for a while, they still look nice.
They do get warmer than regular jeans. I can tolerate it at the office, but it's notable.
In the hot summer, I guess nothing that protects is going to keep you cool, but these do retain the warmth more than draggin jeans (without knee armor). It might be due to the tight knit of the kevlar and heavy denim.
Quality of ....
~Material is good - feels like 12oz denim, Kevlar is soft thin t-shirt material, Mesh is smooth, YKK zipper, Laughable button (plan to replace if you keep them)
~Build is hit and miss- Stitching is single where it shouldn't be and defective in other places; uneven, rolled, kinked, QC should have caught my pair. Also the dumb fly tag that says 'Get Stung; was sewn too low and got kinked with other stitching. Mine says 'Get Stu' when the zipper is down.
~Fitment I wear 34x32 in most other jeans (Levi, Lee, Wrangler) the 34 I received was perfect inseam a little snug in the waist but after a few days wearing them they will be fine. Plus since the button is wet chewing gum, I can put the replacement farther out for a perfect fit.
~Knee armor slot is low, starts just under my kneecap.
I bought the pro version in a 36, the inseam was 6.5inches longer. I assume they are supposed to be worn cuffed to show off the $40 reflective badge sewn inside each leg. Also the knee armor in the pro version is 4.5 inches lower as well. Waist was loose but the button fell apart after 2 hours of wear.
I will update the rating if i get better quality pairs after returning these defects.
Quality: these are very nice denim. High quality. They look like regular jeans. Highly recommended.
Size: they run large. I wear 30x32 Levi's. I ordered 32" waist. They were huge. I'm 5'8", 150#. I should have ordered 30" waist. The 32" length is actually 32", I measured. I sold my pair to my brother.
I am not ordering a smaller size. The 32" length would be way too long.

Description
Size:42 | Color:Blue
Universal style and brazen protective capability make the Covert jean a uniquely versatile riding pant. With motorcycle specific features that include an Abrasion Resistant Fiber lining made with DuPont Kevlar and a knee armor pocket, the Covert Jeans are as comfortable on the bike as they are on a Saturday night out on the town. For the fashion forward rider who doesn't want to sacrifice good looks with real-world protective precautions, the Covert jean is a boutique items in its own class.
These jeans are comfy. Probably the most comfortable bike pants I’ve had. They don’t pass as much air as unlined jeans but are way better than my cordura’s. The Kevlar lining is full length and soft. They are mesh lined from the knee armour pockets down and because of the mesh lining don’t have floating armour pockets to get toes and feet caught in. They are true to size. I’m usually a 32/32 and these fit well if not a little snug. They’re quite long which works with a bent knee riding position, and my boots hold them off the ground when I’m standing up. They look good and will be getting a thrashing this summer.
I got these jeans one size up (I wear a 36, so I got a size 38 of these jeans) and they fit me well. After a long technical ride where I've been moving my hips and torso around a lot, they do get a bit loose, but not enough to cause concern if I walk around while wearing them.
I tend to only put these jeans on when I go riding though. For one, the weather is warming up here, and I heavily favor shorts anyway. and the velcro'd inner pockets of these jeans makes them a bit uncomfortable for me personally. That being said, I have spent the better part of a day wearing these, and despite the discomfort from the velcro patches and the knee pads I bought separately sagging down to my shins, I went about my day with no issues.
It's not summer here yet, but the jeans have been comfortable for me in terms of temperature. They don't circulate much air, but they do feel well reinforced and rugged, so I do trust them to hold up if I crash (which I pray I never do).
I might get another lighter set of pants to try for summer temperatures, but I am happy with these and will keep using them.
Outstanding quality and even better value. Great for adding Armor underneath. I wear a 38 in all other pants, and these @38 fit right with enough room for my hip and knee armor underneath. Warmer and heavier than regular denim, but not excessively so. Highly recommended. Kevlar is essential on the bike Jeans!
Nice fit and I did order one size up for another pair of pants inside of them for the cold morning rides. Should of came with knee pads for the price. It took 3 months to get.
I hope I never have to test it but I feel better knowing I have protection from road rash without having to wear heavy chaps.
