He's wearing a lab coat so it must be true
One morning I thought about putting on my armored motorcycle pants, but it was a hot day and I decided to wear normal jeans. That was a big regret, as that was the day I crashed and slid across the road, shredding my pants like paper and my precious flesh underneath. I still feel the effects of my shredded knee 5 years later.
I hate it when I fall and someone accidentally hits me with a golf club
One thing wrong...u gave the riding jean a bigger size.. The pant leg was tigher on the nornal jeans.. Your seam test was rigged
Harsh comments...You take for what it is and make up your own mind. Probably the bad comments are coming from guys that ride in shorts, tshirt and flip flops, with a learner's permit
Based on how I've gotten bloody knees falling off my bicycle on a rough road while wearing jeans, I'm not exactly going to expect much.
Next up: Icon riding boots vs Flip-Flops!
Both these jeans are unsatisfactory. I require better protection for my cantaloupes.
Denim isn't strong at all, I'm not sure why anyone thinks it would be. It's just cotton. You can shred jeans just tripping over.
The conclusion is - pants that are 10 times more expensive are better BUT NOT 10 TIMES BETTER!

why didnt you test it on a dummy with the pants on and drag it for an X amount of meters behind a car to see how would perform in a ' real world ' scenario
lol, I'm a 62 year old rider. We always used to say that a pair of jeans was good for about a metre/yard of tarmac.
"Our totally sh!t scoring system..." And yet another reason why I subbed to this channel. Keep them coming!
A few weeks ago i crashed going about 10mph (front wheel lost traction) going round a corner with normal jeans on and it still gave me road rash and ripped up my jeans I could only imagine if I had been going like 50 😳 got my Kevlars next day haha.
The test with the jack seems off. It looked like the inner circumference of the icons was significantly larger, thereby requiring more turns.
“So let’s take this good moment to contemplate the nature of failure!” LOL! You are fast becoming my favorite reviewer! A good dose of info that others don’t provide. Various testing of product. With the occasional dose of humor toss in. 5 stars.
I don't know why this is so interesting, I don't even have a motorcycle lmao.
I didn't even watch this to learn, the entertainment value was worthwhile! Thanks again!
All that physics education at McGill finally paying off in the form of a kinematics equation
