I want cycle specific rather than buying some more jeans, I have enough of those! Cycle specific gear tends to have extras like weatherproofing, reinforced areas, uses of non stretch materials, zip/waterproof pockets and other bits of the like too.. Oh and 3M tape ;)
That's the sort of thing I'm after. I'm getting the impression that you don't subscribe to the whole 'commuter specific' thing aha, if it encourages me to ride my bike more then I'm all for it.
Think I'll try some Levis Commuter jeans on payday, there's a few places online that do them at a better price.

I have worn, and am still wearing, Topman jeans and they seem fine. The crotch is about to go on one pair, but I must have been riding in them for most days for about a year or so? For the sake of £35 quid, they don't look awful, and are somewhat disposable?
I think the stylish/good quality/cheap equation is similar to the strong/light/cheap one, aka pick two of the three!
