Start ShoppingI had no intention of writing a review of the Calix jeans I've had for over a year, as I agree with most of the existing reviews: they were delivered promptly after ordering online; they fit just the same as regular jeans; and they are comfortable (comfort was checked out on a four week car trip - with the hip armour fitted! - even before I first wore them on the Speed Triple). Strangely (or not) no reviewer commented on the protection the jeans provide if they happen to be sliding down the road. Come on guys, how about taking one for the team?
Well it appears that has 'fallen' to me. The attached photo is the result of tipping into a right hand corner covered in the loose stuff that the road repairers didn't bother to sweep up. Speed as I hit the deck right knee first was in the order of 30-50kmh and I slid for 15 metres or so (it wasn't measured - I'm just guessing from the photo a mate took of the scene). While a wear mark can be seen the jeans were not worn through - so no gravel to pick out of my knee - and if I'd had knee armour I might have saved my knee from the bruising and the small wound (there might be a bit of dry blood soaked through as part of the stain on the jeans).
So, there you are - a crash test of the Calix jeans. All I have to do now is ask Camino how many times I can slide on the same on the same before they finally wear through... I'll leave that research for someone else, if I may (two weeks after the get off and the knee is still a bit swollen).
I bought these jeans on a whim, but when they arrived (and so very quickly!) I pulled them on and went for a ride.
The armour is noticeable, particularly the hip armour, when walking around but once on the bike they morph into the most comfortable jeans I’ve ever worn.
Five stars from me.
Ordered a pair of single layer jeans which arrived a couple of days later. Size is a true fit with a bit of stretch and very comfortable wearing. Will definitely be going back for more.
I was sceptical about buying riding jeans online, but I had no need to worry. These Camino jeans are fantastic! The sizing guide was spot on, they fit perfectly. Incredibly comfortable whether in the bike or walking around, they fit and feel just like regular jeans.
The choice of leg length and the ability to adjust the knee armour is way more beneficial then you may think.
Having tried these, I wouldn’t consider any other brand in the future.
