He now starts threatening me for posting the glove pic in his Zeus page ... I guess he has lost his mind.....

And I was about to post a query here for selecting between Spartan Riding Pants & Zeus Pants.
Plus, just about to order those LED's they are selling with 1 year warranty.

But, now even if those pants are superior (which I'm sure it's not) to SPG pants. I will not shop with those guys.


Thanks for posting his reply here bro.

Nothing hi-fi in these boots. But the thick sole and thick protection near the fingers is what I was looking for, plus they look good IMO.
They are not waterproof. So riding in rains would be a problem.

Thanks a lot pal.

Not suitable for 2-3 hours of rains even or say Mumbai kind of Rain or if you have to stand in water for 20-30 min.

You'll soon feel your very own water-pool in there.

Are they tough enough to take thrashing? Going through water, mud, and big tours including lots of toil that comes along??

1. The weight is appropriate for comfort
2. Gear shifting is easy, would take 70-100km to adjust
3. It will save your from those normal crashes, but if suppose "your bike falls on your ankle bone, it will pain".
4. It's cushioned kind of thick cloth padding.
5. Can bear water drops for 10-15 min without letting the water in.
6. You stand in water for 5 min, you'll feel wet in socks.
7. Heavy rain would take near 30-40 min for wet feeling.
8. For Mud, I guess you're safe as they have high ankle / boot shape.

Good for 1 - 1.5 year of Usage (Without care, like mine), Last year dust is still there -_-

I made the exact same decision about ZEUS after reading the review. Out of the list of choices available.

re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

After going through the manufacturers websites and this forum, I have narrowed down on SPG ICARUS mesh riding jacket that is listed on their website.
My budget is below 5k. Would anyone please suggest any other options available to me in that price?

Also, choosing a size over the website is proving difficult, so are there any stores in Mumbai, Thane or Navi Mumbai where I can try this particular jacket or any other from SPG for my size?

Any of the locations mentioned above are convenient.

Any Feedback on SPG in general, and SPG ICARUS is welcome.
