do other people jeans or trousers…what ever you wear while unicycling get ripped or start to wear away after a while in the inner thigh area where it rubs on the seat?
this is the first time its happined to me but i noticed that one pair has just worn though not long ago.
and then looked at my other pairs and i can see it is starting to wear away.
it did take a long time for it to happin but does it happin to other people?
matt.
Yup thats bee the ruin of a few of my pairs of pants…Just got to a work clothing store and get a pair of jeans with a reinforced groin area.
I have cycle under shorts to reduse friction
i’ve never had a problem there, but a few times the end of my pants’ leg will get caught on the crank and rip.
Thats annoying. i done that on my bike chain once. A big 12"+ slash all the way up the leg 
I have never ripped my pants… but my inner thighs do get red after a lot of hopping and trials-y stuff.
i was riding once and by coincidence, whilst passing some lovely young ladies, my unicycle ripped my jeans right off :0
hahhahahahahhahahahahahahahah that is so funny.
Did the lovely young ladies come to your rescue or just giggle and walk on?
totaly a coinkydonk:D Like my word:P
hmm that could be a good thing…or a bad thing…
If your gifted like me then it is a good thing:D
Joke i aint gifted just average well maybe a tad more:P
Its happened to me three times.
I do all my hopping seat-in, so my seat rubs on the pants a lot sometimes. This rubbing causes the seems to come loose. I only notice when I am riding and feel a breeze go up my leg, and see that there is now a inch-3 inch gap in my pants.
It hasnt happened in a while though. Maybe I am waring higher quality pants with better seems.
I wear Dickie’s, haven’t had a problem…
Been riding 4 months now.
well honestly, i ran the tyre over the end of my nob and ended up face planting into the butimen. 
needless to say, they sheilas where stunned!
yup! me too… no friction here hehe
Yeah ive worn the inside of a couple of pairs of jeans out from riding muni, pain in the ass.
I find riding in jeans is very uncomfortable because the way the jeans are made, the heavy cotton material creates a big seam in the crotch which is uncomfortable to sit on.
I wore out the inner thighs of some expensive cotton shorts when I first started riding. Now I ride with inexpensive lightweight cotton shorts over nylon/spandex compression or bike shorts. Even better is nylon outer shorts over the spandex shorts.
The inner thighs of your pants/trousers will wear out faster if they get wet with sweat. Wearing spandex undershorts will reduce the chafing and rubbing on both your skin and the outer shorts.
Yes, a lot. I hate it! It doesn’t matter what kind of material it is, I’ve ruined all kinds of stuff. Even several pairs of boxers. 
Yeah that seems to be the biggest problem with me, I have lost one pair of pants completely to that and a nother is pretty worn.
All my jeans except one have two big hole in the inner part… I still wear them with a black or blue cycling short under.
I sometimes feel like I look like a tramp but when i’m asked about those holes at work, the answer “eh unicycling!” seems to be sufficient:o
