I have been looking at the Cordura jeans by Swrve, but I am also wondering if there would be a saddle that would be easier on jeans. I currently have a SpeedV by WTB. Any thoughts?
I do the bike ride, then train, then bike ride to work. Also, jeans are my wear, 365 a year.. Yes, Jeans and cowboy, the only way I go..
With that said, I don't wear my jeans on the bike!!
I keep my jeans at work, and change clothes when I get there. This morning for the 14 degree cold weather commute, I have 3 pair long johns, UA cold gear leggins, and Pearl Izumi shorts. IMO, trying to wear work clothes on the bike, doesn't do well. It might make your ride uncomfartable if it is cold, and you get your clothes for work all messed up. Try riding in bike gear, and carry or have a change of clothes at work. Should be better all around...
