1280339038 SWRVE cycling jeans

THESE cycling jeans by SWRVE/barney’s have some unique characteristics that set them apart from other cycling jeans…

+ side pocket! one of the best things about dickies is the side pocket. not a CARGO pocket, just a nice little phone/iPod/multiTool-sized pocket to be able to carry more sensitive shit, and more importantly, to be able to access same WHILE RIDING. i like that.
+ reflective traffic-side beltloop. many "cycling jeans" have reflective material up inside the cuffs so that when you roll your pantleg, you glow. in fact, these jeans do, too*. but the downside to that savvy combination of technique and need is that you typically roll your RIGHT pantleg, which is AWAY from traffic. so this beltloop solution is brilliant to me.

of course, they also have all the same proven shit that other "cycling jeans" have…

+ back pockets fit u-locks.
+ waist is low in front, high in back.
+ *reflective inside right cuff.

$150 at the link above.
