(Im not planning on jumping obstacles or racing. I may hit a tree on occassion or a shrubbery but thats about all im in for right now.)
The pants have protection in them as do the shirts.Plus the pants are far more durable than a pair of jeans. The shirts are light and keep you cool as well and will wick the sweat away form you body.
