I am so thrilled that Phil and I happened to be free and ran into each other on the flats- I can’t imagine not having these awesome photos. Thanks again, man!

Women’s Dainese Jeans Collection 2015
Growing numbers of riders want to look casual and feel comfortable while they ride- especially city riders. But that doesn’t mean you should sacrifice safety at the same time. More and more good looking and protective riding jeans are hitting the market, and this year Dainese has three distinct options. The Belleville, Jessville, and Kateville. Read on to find out more about their protective qualities, color options, and fitment.
Belleville Slim Lady Jeans $229.95
The Belleville lady riding jeans come in a slim fit semi-stretch denim. They have internal pro-shape comfort knee protectors, Kevlar jersey reinforced lining, reflective inserts, and they come in both a medium and a dark demin color.
- Interior reinforced with DuPont Kevlar jersey
- Pro-Shape knee protectors: soft, certified protectors that comply with EN 1621.1 standards
- Suitable for fitting Pro-Shape protection at the sides (hips)
- Reflective inserts
- Suitable for fitting straps that pass under the feet
- T19 Denim-medium (Stone bleached used)
- T46 Denim-dark (3D washed)
Jessville Skinny Lady Jeans $179.95
These are the classic stretchy skinny jean, and they do have Kevlar reinforced jersey lining… however they lack any other internal armor or protection (besides the reflective accents). Though if you wear removable knee and shin armor, these would be a great fashionable reinforced option for city riding.

- T19 Denim-medium (Stone washed used)
The Kateville has a little bit more a relaxed fit, while still being made of form fitting semi stretch denim. The seat and knees are reinforced with Kevlar jersey, with pockets for knee armor. Dainese suggests Pro-Shape knee armor.
- Regular and Slim
- Interior reinforced with DuPont Kevlar jersey
- Suitable for Pro-shape knee protectors
- Reflective inserts
- Stretch denim
- Suitable for fitting straps that pass under the feet
