    That photo has a knee slider under the hole. I'd say he has given it a serious work out. Not saying they are any good (you get what you pay for), but I don't think a knee slider under the jeans and one contact point for 50+ metres would work out very well for any of the kevlar jeans brands would it?

    If its was 3 layers of "Dupont kevlar" it should have held up to a 40 km/h slide , my plain 12 oz jeans held up better at a lot more when I was sliding (on my knees) through a cross road at considerably more than 40. Still have the scar on my right knee.

    Whats the problem, the leg looks like its still alive.... probably not even a trophy scar on the knee...
