I bought some cheap jeans from xl oto.co.uk, they were mentioned on this thread;

Tbh for me they’re just for occasional riding to work through town on scooters and they seem fine. Feel quite tough, got armour, not had to test them as yet thankfully.
If I was doing more mileage or on a faster bike I’d probably buy something more expensive (who am I kidding, I’d still go for the cheap option).

Any recommendations for casual looking jeans with some sort of abrasive resistance / subtle armour?
For those "popping to the shops" rides.
(I know, nothing beats leathers, but if I am popping to town, I'm not doing more than 30 on the way there, which is not dissimilar to speeds on the road bike and I'll have shorts on then)
I wear an athletic cut (decades of cycling gave me thighs, middle age gave me a larger waist)
