Truth time! We have all done it, and I shall confess. “Oh holy gods of two wheels and petrol, I confess to riding squid.” The vast majority of us in the biker world live in jeans 24/7, but my faithful 501’s are nothing but an illusion of protection. Scorpion offers the Covert and Covert Pro …

Introduction It appears I have become the “riding jeans” guys over the past several years here at WebBikeWorld.com.

I do worry sometimes that I could suffer from “denim fatigue” with the volume of jeans …

Trilobite 1860 Ton-Up Jeans

Motorcycle Jeans Reviews
Hands On Reviews: Motorcycle Riding & Protective Jeans When it comes to motorcycle safety we’ve always been an ATGATT kind of company here at webBikeworld.

Rokker “Original Rokker” Jeans Review The Rokker Original (actually, it’s Original Rokker) jeans are very comfortable and they’re also probably the best fitting motorcycle protective jeans I’ve tried to date.
