Draggin jeans (cheap version)
I got a pair of dark blue denim draggins for Christmas, 36" waist. However, the waist was baggy and the legs crazy tight, so no win there.
I started looking around and struggled to find anything as comfy as my normal street jeans. I reckon the draggin combats should be alright, but I never got to try on a pair.
Then I hit upon my brainwave... The stuff inside the jeans is just kevlar cloth and the rest of the jeans just, erm denim. I had a look on ebay and you can buy kevlar cloth for about $20/m which I reckon should work.
In the end though, my mate was about to chuck out his old draggins, so I had a local guy cut out the kevlar reinforcement and stitch it into my street jeans. Hey presto, draggins(sortof) that fit lovely, for $18. Bargain!
What do you reckon?
