Accidentally stumbled across these the other day. After an inspection showing double layer knees lots of well placed pockets and cut like slim jeans rather than baggy work pants I purchased a pair. Tried them out today on a return run to Berry and back, result is at $65 I'm going to get another pair or two.

These would not offer as much protection as Kevlar jeans would they? _________________ www.ratscafe.org

Kevlar jeans don't cost $65.00.

My inquiry so far suggests retail for the Kevlar fabric is about $60.00 per sq mtr.
The long johns look like a good idea, but $259.00 |
