a special blend of materials including Kevlar fibres

What does "including kevlar fibres" mean? Sounds a bit less convincing than jeans lined in Kevlar. OTOH I imagine all "kelvar linings" are really fabric that has kevlar woven into it, rather than pure Kevlar? I wouldn't want to buy anything without more information. I suppose if you're skint then it's better than riding in jeans, but if you have the extra dosh then stuff made by Draggin or Hood comes with more info on what you're actually getting.

Hood are cheaper, British, and are fully lined.

Draggin are more money, Australian, and lined on the most exposed bits only; possibly better in really hot weather.

J&S jeans are basically that. No kevlar lining, just thick denim.

And Draggin Jeans have odd sizing - you end up needing to get a much bigger size to what you are used to so trying on is a must!

I've got a couple of pairs of Hood jeans. They are very slightly on the large size, but fit o.k. and are excellent.
