I've mentioned the new Saint Unbreakable jeans I was sent to test/wear a couple of times and loved how they felt, day in, day out in Nepal. The makers, Australian company Saint, say they are the toughest single layer jeans ever made, but what does that mean? I know it means they're abrasion resistant, so if I crash I won't be leaving any leg on the road, but it's hard to visualize. Saint must have realised this, because they have just released this film showing their jeans lifting a 2.4-tonne skip.
Am I going to lift a 2.4-tonne skip with my jeans? No.
Am I reassured that they can life a 2.4-tonne skip? Damn right!
