I have interlace and haven't set up the gimmick yet. I know Richard says it won't work in jeans but...has anyone tried it in jeans and found a way to make it work reliably? If so, please post your tips/strategies or PM me. Thanks.

I think if you wear a loose and baggy type of jean there shouldnt be a problem.

That is kind of what I was thinking but on the dvd that comes with it he makes it sound like it can't be made to work reliably in jeans. I was hoping someone out there had tried it successfully and had some pointers on how they got it to work. I really don't want to spend the time installing it in a pair of jeans only to not have it work. Anybody?
Thanks.

Puffinmonkey,
Did you have to do anything different from the instructions to get it to work?

Actually no, I use the same instructions that was provided. Do you have troubles in getting it to work on your pair of jeans? The jeans have to be loose and baggy. If you wear really fit jeans then it would not work.

Alex,
I haven't installed it yet as I was waiting for somebody that had tried it in jeans. I have plenty of loose jeans so I guess finding baggy jeans shouldn't be a problem. Thanks.

Probably not. Your pants need to fit loosely. Regular jeans are typically to tight.

Kaliix is right you need baggy jeans in order for this to work. Loose jeans will enable for this to work. I have mine installed in my jeans work perfectly for me.

Works with my jeans too. As long as I pull the leg straight before use.

So, it works as smooth with loose baggy jeans than with dressing pants? or does it play diferent?

Mine is permanently installed in jean, and I have NEVER had any problems with the gimmick malfunctioning. Just don't wear tight jeans and you shall be fine.
