Resergance PEKEV motorcycle pants
Chook Fri 17 Jan 2014, 6:50 pm
I was shown a link to their Australasian Facebook Page in November, they claim to be the most "skid resistant pants in the world" They were running a monthly give away last year, I found out yesterday I won a pair of Resurgence pants of my choice from just "liking" their FB page, I contacted them and it wasn't too late, I've got a pair of Grey Cargo Pants on the way.
I'll put a review here when I get them, they look a bit classier than my Shark Leathers Cammo Cargo Pants (they have been great pants and very good value) I'm expecting with the lining going from the belt line to 1/2 way down the caves they may be a bit warmer than the other brands that just offer the extra protection on the "vulnerable areas"

I think they are all online in AU/NZ at the moment, there is a "Do you want to retail the world's highest abrasion rated motorcycle pants" link at the bottom of the page. I'm not sure where they are made but they are a US based companyEwok1958 wrote:Nice win Chook - can't say I've seen that brand on sale in these parts.

yeah I'd be interested to hear your thoughts, too.
I'm not very impressed with the way the denim on my Draggins has degraded.

I bought a pair of these in black, after the silly stonewash denim in my Draggins started to split.
They have the same active ingredient as the resurgence, I read somewhere that they are no longer licensed to use the PEKEV which belongs to Resurgence.
Disappointed that these have a silly fashion wash too but they are good to wear and come with knee and hip pad. The knee pads are removable with the jeans on.

We got this model so you could see how they fit fat people.

The pants arrived Tuesday, today was the 1st chance I'd got to ride in them.
All I've got to compare them to is my old pair of Cargos from Shark Leathers in Queensland.
They appear to be very well made, the quality of finish is excellent.
Compared to my old pants they are quite heavy, a price you pay for being fully lined, armoured and a additional mesh lining between the lining and your skin.
My old ones I was happy wearing to the footy or the front bar of a pub etc but I wouldn't have worn them out for a counter meal for instance, the Resurgence Cargos look a bit more stylish and could be worn more places.
The extra mesh lining was more comfortable against my skin than my old pants, they also have a velcro strap at the bottom of the legs to hold them tight which is a good addition.
After one short ride the only thing I noticed is how warm they are when you are stopped or just standing around, on the bike they seemed to breathe well though.
I think I might put them away until I need something nicer looking to wear or when the weather gets colder, the old ones are no where near as warm to wear.
All in all they appear to be a very good quality pair of pants and are very comfy to wear, I just hope I never have to test their claim ato being the most skid resistant pants ever

After a couple of rides in quite warm weather I've found they are not too hot while moving, they seem to breath very well, they do however get quite warm when not riding, but so do the old pair.
