I found a link to this site while browsing. The pants look interesting, I already have an armored jacket that I like.

 

Has anyone used Bohn armor or have an opinion.

 

I broke my right arm & shoulder in an accident 3 years ago, so am getting back into riding more cautiously than I have been in the past.

I wear a complete armoured outfit everytime I post on this Site..........it's a lot less messier than the "thick skin" butt ointment I normally use.

 

Boomer....who rides with leather on his Venture cuz butt cream causes wedgies.

Its been 3 years since this thread last was action. I just came across it. Was wondering if anymore members are wearing these now?

I have the pants. The only discomfort is the thigh pads will get a little sweaty when it gets warm out. I think you could fix that problem real quick with a little cloth glued to them or something like that. They are the only pads that don't stay in permanently and can be a little tricky to put in. I still don't know if I put them in right because because they fit a couple of ways. But they are definitely worth the money.

I wear them once in a while, not as often as I should.

 

I took out one of the tailbone protector pads to make sitting more comfortable. haven't had problems with the hip pads.

I have worn them in over 100 degree heat for more than 12 hours a day.

They have two versions, mesh is very cooling. Cooler than bare skin.

Its now CE rated armor.

It does fit under normal jeans. But I wear Dragging Jeans over them.

They are a priceless piece of mind when wearing rain gear.

 

As far as what they will do in a crash, you would have to read the great testimonials on the Bon Armor site. Hear of people walking away from 70 mph crashes.

 

Its a little tricky sizing. I think your best bet is order right on. They will trade it out no charge for thirty days.

Mike and I have the Bohn armored mesh pants, the right knee armor presses a lot on my right knee, I think Mike has a similar issue with the left knee, other than that we love the armor.
