Product Testing

How do we know how tough our jeans really are?

We conducted our own drag tests at Calder Park Raceway in Melbourne. The concept was simple, attach a victim to a modified drag car and maybe a Harley Davidson or two and drag him on his arse up the drag strip!

Well ... 140 kph and 300 metres later the jeans basically spoke for themselves. Not only did our victim survive but he wanted to do it again! Not a scratch on him and the jeans were still in good enough shape for another run.

All in all 12 drags were conducted and the respect of all involved was gained. They ain't called Draggin' Jeans for nothing you know!
