Jeans are a bit stiffer than regular jeans due to the kevlar (also a bit warmer, but not a ton). Fit is good, style is excellent, leg length is perfect for riding.

Alpinestars Verona Air Jacket A mid-length, warm weather commuting jacket featuring a sport bike cut, premium protection and durable shell in a sleek, understated design. Dual 450D polyester outer shell with mesh inserts and double PU coating provides excellent ventilation and abrasion resistance. Removable CE certified Bio Armor elbow and shoulder protectors provide excellent impact protection while being incredibly lightweight and slim, allowing for a comfortable fit. Alpinestars Bionic chest pads and CE certified RC back protector available as optional accessories. Exclusive City Collection trims and embroidered labels give a stylish, minimalist design. Micro-Velcro waist adjustment flap allows custom fit
 

Does this have any back protection?

I'm guessing not, judging from the video and the description, but it can't hurt to ask.
No hard protection like on the arms, but there is some semi-rigid padding along the spine.
