Can't seem to find that combination anywhere.
I have never seen a pair of "jeans" with real armour in them. The closest is the Cortech DSX & I'm really not to happy with them. Infact, I don't wear them except for MSF classes. I wear my Icon TiMax pants for street riding in hot weather. It was 101f in NJ today & I wasn't uncomfortable. I was definitely hot but I could deal with it.

KC-10 FE out...
