Dainese Drake Tex Mens Pants
Average Customer Rating:     4.5 out of 5 (based on 2 ratings)
Drake pants will surely interest anyone who loves to ride his or her bike especially in the warmer months without wearing a suit or leather pants in order to obtain the protection required. These previously contrasting needs have now been perfectly reconciled by Drake fabric pants. Ample air vents in fretted fabric with closing on the thighs permit fresh air to enter during riding for cooling relief on even the hottest days. When temperatures begin to drop, the air vents can be closed. Safety is guaranteed by removable composite protections in the knee and shins, while extra-strength Cordura 750 fabric offers protection in case of fall. The elastic inserts in the knee optimise the wearability of the article, which is equally suited to metropolitan motorcycle use.

    Good design. Short on length. |
By Anonymous from Indiana, USA on 06/06/2008
Pros: Hard armor shell on knees/shin, but wore comfortable. Seemingly great breathability, particularly from thigh vents. Outer material looks and feels good. Fit was secure; not like a pair of tights or fitting leathers, but not big floppy cargo style. Stylish enough for street riding without looking like leatherman or mc hammer pant.
Cons: Size. Length/Inseam too short for my taste, but probably made to wear with full height boot.
In Midwest climate, I would choose these pants, Drake Tex, versus the Drake Air. The Air is incredibly "breathable", but I feel one could get more wear with the regular Tex in the flexible climate, hot-cold, and still be happy and comfortable.
