Title: Leathers (Pants) like in the movie Torque
Post by: Radracer6 on October 17, 2013, 01:04:03 PM
Hey guys Im sure some have seen this movie, pretty goofy but fun. Anway i think the leathers the main characters have are dope. They make replicas but they looks really shoddy. Anyway my question is anyone know of leather pants that are like the ones these guys wear? They don't look full race but they look like thick leather. Basically looking for off track riding pants that look good and give better protection in a crash than jeans

Better protection than jeans is everywhere.
What I ride in, every day, not full leather but with a few mesh panels mixed in:

Depends on your needs of course.
I'll still add Frogg Toggs for real rain.
These are just practical enough for me, over the boot, with a shower & wind proof removable liner. I bring pants to work.
I like the protection these offer. Full leather might be a little tough for summer.
