Sizing Information
We measured a sampling of these jeans of different waist sizes and lengths and find they are much like other jeans you’d buy these days. They are just a bit “vanity” sized in the waist. Across the size run, the actual measured waist is just about 2” larger than the stated size which is typical vanity sizing. And of course these are denim and may shrink just a tad too. So my overall advice would be to buy the waist size you normally wear in jeans; you’ll likely find a fit. If you aren’t sure whether your jeans are vanity sized like I’m describing, then either measure your waist where your normal jeans ride or measure your favorite pair of jeans to verify. You’ll probably find that you measure out a bit bigger than your normal jeans size and also the waist of your favorite jeans measures out an inch or two bigger than their stated size. If so, you will be on track following my advice.
The material used in these jeans has an elastic component to them which makes them pretty forgiving for size. If you find yourself between sizes, I’d suggest going with the smaller.
The fit of the jeans does change with the color option. Below are size charts provided by the factory.

Our Two Cents
Parado jeans by Trilobite are part motorcycle-specific jean like the Probut X-Factor style but with toned down, styling to make them look more like your favorite jeans. And in black, these will likely appeal to street/cruiser riders too.
Like the Probut, this jean has stretch material in the crotch area to help with flexibility. It also has the expansion panels above the knees and behind the waist. But these panels are the same color as the fabric so they aren’t as noticeable, so these jeans look more like ordinary jeans than the Probut. Also included is the higher waist panel in back to fight plumbers butt.
For a list of technical feature, have a look at the info from Trilobite below. Their list is comprehensive and pretty honest. Armor is included for the hips and knees too.
In this jean, I like zippered venting on the front of the thigh. The pants themselves will breathe pretty good, but with the zippers open you’ll get even more air through, so this jean ought to work even in the summer temps. If you like black jeans and want something to work better for you in the summer sun, then this one might work! Oh, and one other thing… with this model, the jeans are packaged in a water-resistant storage pouch, which might be a handy thing to use to store items when you travel. :: Paul, 09-28-18

The Trilobite Jeans are an extremely comfortable pair of jeans, which is saying a lot, since they come with very solid hip and Knee armor. I have only worn the jeans inside so far, though I have gone out to the garage and sat on the bike in them. It is still too cold here in The Midwest to ride yet, though we should be good to go in a few weeks. (Read more...)
