Gixxus Christ! Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Competition accessories has them on sale now for $79.99 and the reviews on their website are all great. I have some sliders Kevlar jeans but they're really hot in the summer and give me swamp ass. These look like a good alternative for hot weather and they have an 8" zipper so I can attatch them to my jackets. Anyone ever owned a pair?http://www.compacc.com/p/Shadow-Scorcher-2-Mesh-Pants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowdog Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I would be interested to know how they hold up in a crash. I am in the market for a new pair of riding pants as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 The usual areas are reinforced with ballistic nylon with ce armor in the knees and hips so they should be fairly decent I would think. Ill buy a pair and wreck them if I can use your bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Got a pair in the mail this morning, seem pretty well-built. The padding in the hips is minimal and doesn't look like it would do much good. Lots of mesh, pretty much in an area the size of a large pair of boxers on the front and in the backs of the legs below the knee in the back. Ballistic nylon re-enforcement in the knees and ass is generous, they look like they can take a beating. Legs unzip up to the knee. Knee armor is adjustable and stays in place pretty good. With the liner out you could easily wear these over jeans or work pants but doubtful with the liner in. Once it warms up I'll take these on a ride and see how well they breathe.
