CTBQiTom Motorcycle Pants for Men with CE Level 2 Armor

These ran a little big for me. I typically wear a 36, when I received the 36 they were extremely loose and too big. I returned them and went down a size. The 34 fit way better. Have wore them on a couple of extended rides in the Florida this summer. They performed well, I was not overly hot in them, considering we were riding during some of Florida’s record breaking heat waves. The quality meets expectations and the style looks good. They were comfortable on and off the bike.

i'm male, 5'8", 130 lbs, 30" waist with 31-32" inseam. i ordered the XS solely based on waist size of the chart (xs said its waist ranges from 29-30"). it fits like a true skinny fit jean, which was what i was after. if you want a more relaxed fit, you'll have to size up. the waist fits fine - it has some stretch to it so felt comfortable for my 30" waist. even though the chart indicated inseam as 30.7", it felt much longer. the jean material is elastic, so it can stretch everywhere. its also thicker in material than your typical skinny fit jean, but it's not comparable to actual motorcyle jeans, which are thicker and feel more tear resistant. the hip pads slot into pockets on the inside and are not bulky. i've had some hip pads in other pants that made my hips look wide. the kneepads have two positions, but ive found even on the lowest position, sitting on a motorcyle with a lot of knee bend and seat pushing the inseam up, that the pads are too high up. it provides SOME protection, but is not in the ideal spot. if im on a cruiser, then the pads will probably sit ok. the backpockets feel really low though. i thought it would bother me if i store my wallet there but it hasnt been a problem (i dont ride with my wallet in my pockets anyways so the backpackets are kinda moot). regular and leg pockets are great. durability wise it feels like your standard department store skinny jeans, so im pretty sure its going to have that standard light jean level of protection, ie: it'll provide SOME protection, but more than likely will tear. so far tho, i like them for the fit and price. i will continue to use them on my rides until i can find another more protective pair of motorcycle jeans with the same style fit and armor. will update on durabilty and longevity.

These pants fit okay at first, but shrank further than anticipated after the first wash. They're a close fitting jean, with legs that are skinnier than a straight cut jean. The stretching portions are okay, but as time went on after wearing them a few times, they became uncomfortable. Particularly with some of the stitching sticking out behind the zipper along with the crutch point, or crotch seam as it was very low or long for a pair of mens pants. The pads included are nice, but make the legs ride up while riding, probably because they shrank so much. It's almost as if they modelled these pants on a woman, added pad inserts and sold them as 'motorcycle pants'. I don't recommend them, but if you're desperate for some riding pants, then make sure to get a few sizes larger than you usually get. UPDATE: CBTQiTom contacted me, concerned about my experience with their product. They elected to replace my motorcycle pants for free. I ordered them in black, 2 sizes larger anticipating that they'd shrink again and as predicted, they did, but now they fit great! (I prefer my pants a little loose.) No problems with the stitching. I can wear them all day comfortably without the knee pads in. If I leave the pads in, they rest just low enough that the top edge of the knee pad rests on my kneecaps while standing, which can be a little uncomfortable, but once I get on my motorcycle they're in perfect position over my knees. The hip pads can be left in all day, as they're position does not obstruct or conflict with any joints. I'm glad they contacted me about my experience and I'm happy with the results, therefore, I've bumped my rating up to 4 stars. These are all-day comfortable riding pants you can wear at the office with a decent price. They might not protect well in a slide (there's no Cordura, Kevlar, or Dyneema) but at least you can keep your joints padded with level 2 CE rated pads.

Very heavy denim. Armor fits well and dont even know it's there size to fit but a little long in length. Very flexible material. Pockets are easily accessable. Even though a very heavy denim, that didnt feel hot. Actually felt cooler riding a 6 cylinder Valkyrie by not feeling as much heat off the engine.

It looks good and feels good BUT WILL NOT protect you. The fabric is soft and not durable. Levis jeans are thicker than this. The backside completely ripped open from daily use. Good fashion jeans but dont expect this to save your skin

After having such a good experience with my first pair, I bought another set. This pair became my everyday riding and travel pants, and I put them through the same kind of real-world use. I basically lived in them. I rode in them, traveled in them, relaxed in them, and wore them day after day. I'd take them off to shower and put them right back on. I wanted to see how they would hold up under constant use instead of just occasional rides. Just like my first pair, they've proven to be comfortable, durable, and surprisingly tough. They handled heat, sweat, long rides, and everyday wear without giving me any reason to regret buying them. To me, that's the best test a piece of riding gear can pass. If I keep reaching for the same pants every day, they're doing something right. At this point, I've purchased three pairs of these pants. That says more than anything else I could write. They've earned my trust, and I'd gladly buy them again.

Sizing: I have a 30” inseam and they were 3-4” too long. The knee pads were on my shins. Materials and quality: The pads are super flimsy and the fabric is super thin. My CE1 pads in other gear feel safer than these alleged CE2 things. There is absolutely NO WAY they offer any protection in the event of a slide or any type of accident with how soft and stretchy the material is. They appear to be more of a designer asthetic than rider protective gear. The hip pad pockets are sewn in with super cheap mesh bags I’ll ride in an abrasion resistant textile and ensure swamp ass from sweating before I ride in these.

Decent riding pants for around town, great work pants.

UPDATE: I was contacted by Customer Service to rectify the sizing issue. They explained the different materials used and offered one size up (medium) for the blue jeans. They are indeed the right size for me! I’m extremely happy with it and appreciate the customer service and quick turnaround. +++++++++ I had bought the black one first. It’s definitely the correct size. I’m 5”5, 31 waist. I got a Small. It fits nicely around the legs and waist. They need hemming but I roll them at the right length. The material used on the black is very stretchy and comfortable. I move around them easily. 5/5 Since I liked them so much, I bought a second pair. The blue (jean) one. However, though they’re the same size, the material used are not as stretchy as the black ones. They’re tight around the legs and very difficult to move. Like Skinny jeans. Had difficulty putting them on and kicking my leg over my seat. Waist is ok. Taking a while to “break” in. I’ll have to follow up at a later time with the second pair. Right now the 2nd pair are 3/5 due to the comfort and fitting.

Arrived in Melbourne, Australia 12-Dec-2025. Great set of Armoured Motorcycle Jeans. Great value too! Good seller.

Great pants, ordered my second pair. I own a pair of green and a pair of black, they're really comfortable with and without the armor. It's nice that the kneepads come out so when I go for a casual ride and go somewhere to eat, I take them out for comfort. They look great too. So many people compliment them and no one realizes they're equipped with hip and knee padding, when other riders do find out I don't hesitate to share the ad with them. Great through and though and would recommend. My green pair does have some fraying and loose threads starting to happen, but for $80, I'm not complaining honestly, live with it and move on. 🤟🏽

Compared to Australian sizes this is one size less.. so if ur 34 buy a 36. Returning is not free. Selling wont respond to you, it will cost over $50 to send it back to China. Return postage is not free. Pants are ok otherwise but the armor is not great, bulcky and uncomfortable.
