I've heard good things about those. I've been considering picking up a pair to widen the range of situations where I would ride. Get some more basic street time in.

I would never buy Draggin' or any other riding specific jeans... The fact that my jeans did not tear when I crashed and the amount of road rash I got tells me that they're probably just not worth it. Leather FTW.

It also helps having pokets in jeans...I have a thickazz leather wallet in one hip pocket and the hard plastic kickstand plate/thingy in the other hip pocket for added protection against burning my azz in a slide. To each their own though. |

Anthems have more protection and look more professional.

I actually kinda like the skull (although I haven't seen the jeans in person). Plus the Strongarm is less money. Between the two I'm more concerned with fit and protection, if they're uncomfortable and I don't wear them they're not going to save my ass. I'll look around, I'm planning a trip from KW to Alaska next summer, so I might be saving the money to buy something more along the lines of a adventure touring jacket/pants combo. (I don't know how a muddy set of Icon jeans would look on a KLR on the AL-Can.)
