I bought these jeans after ditching my over pants. I was getting way too hot and the overall experience was neither practical, nor a good one for the city cruising I do.
What sold my on these Drayko jeans is that they are rated for 4.4 seconds of abrasion protection. When you think about it, sliding for 4 seconds is a long time (If you're going 85 MPH then maybe not but for casual cruising it's perfect).
The jeans are really comfortable and a nice enough standard looking jean. They fit pretty squarely if you care about style that much. Only issue I had is that there are no inseams to choose from. I'm 5'8 and I have to roll the pant-legs up a little, but that look sort of works with a motorcycle anyway.
What would make these perfect IMO, would be an insert on the knees for CE armor and maybe the hips too. That being said, I'm a 32, or 33 jean and I got the 34. Nice and roomy which is perfect because I like to tuck my undershirt in and will be wearing hip armor soon. So if you plan on wearing nothing underneath, just go with whatever your regular size is. Otherwise order one or two up.
These jeans are great, and now I can commute comfortably without looking for a place to stash over pants. Of course these aren't as safe as full gear, but they are MUCH safer than run-of-the-mill jeans (rated for 1.8 seconds BTW), without sacrificing style or price. I will most likely be getting a second pair soon, when I really start commuting with my bike several more times a week. Buy some over the pant knee guards, and hip armor, and you're ready to ride with convenient protection.

I feel like my feet and ankles are nicely protected in this boot. There is a latch that goes over the laces that's plastic, so that could be an issue but as long as you aren't too abusive with it I think that it could last.
Stylish enough that you can wear them with jeans to work or school or whatever and they stick out just enough to let the more observant people know that you ride, without being blatant. Low profile for the protection they offer.

Clicks into place, visor can be lifted to different degrees, and because its modular, the whole chin lifts up too. Super durable, I got the matte black and think it looks great. A little heavier but that's due to all the features and hard plastic. Internal "shades" drop down with the flip of a switch, very top gun. me like. The helmet gets pretty foggy even with all the vents open but I don't think there's a helmet out there that actually keeps your head cool without the visor being open at least part way. Also has a ton of bluetooth/ipod connectivity but I haven't explored that because right now I need to focus on staying alive when I ride (LOL). It comes at an additional charge. It's a little expensive but those sub-$100 helmets look like snowboard helmets to me, so if you're gonna spend the extra money, might as well spend it on your head.
Nothing but recommendations from me, completely awesome and feature-rich helmet.

Pants are nice for the price, but honestly, even without the liner, they're too hot for temps above 70 if you're wearing them over jeans like I tried to do.
They are best used without pants underneath, maybe just some nice compression shorts and long johns or something.
Protection is great, knee pads are adjustable and maybe a little finicky but overall I think all the protection is adequate.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Torn between Nolan N90 and Scorpion EXO-500. Which do I pick and why?
I can only speak for the Nolan N90s, which is what I own. If you have a round head like myself, go with the Nolan. It also has great features like the visor that "notches" up for varying degrees of air flow, and the built-in "top gun" shades that I really love. It's also modular which I like a lot. Can't speak to the EXO but the Nolan is fantastically well built (made in Italy).

how do I size Tour Master motorcycle pants?
I wear a 32-33, chose a large. Enough room for jeans underneath.
