Full details

The Knox Urbane Pro MkIII Armoured Motorcycle Shirt is a versatile, high-performance garment designed for motorcyclists who prioritize both safety and comfort in varying climates. It serves as a standalone protective layer that is CE EN approved to class AA, effectively eliminating the need for a traditional bulky motorcycle jacket.

FAQs

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

The shirt itself is not waterproof. It is designed to be worn under a waterproof outer shell when it rains.

Is the armour included?

Yes, the shirt comes with CE level 2 Micro-Lock Compact armour for the shoulders, elbows, and back.

How does the AA rating affect protection?

The Class AA rating indicates that the garment provides high-level abrasion and impact protection suitable for most riding conditions.

Can I wash the armour?

No, the armour should be removed before washing the shirt. Wipe the armour with a damp cloth if necessary.

Is it suitable for track days?

While it offers excellent AA-rated protection, always check your specific track day regulations, as some may require full-suit leather gear.

What should I wear underneath?

It is recommended to wear a moisture-wicking base layer to keep the mesh lining comfortable against your skin.

Troubleshooting

Armour feels out of position

Ensure you have selected the correct size; the shirt should fit like a second skin to keep pads centered over elbows and shoulders.

Sleeves riding up while riding

Ensure the thumb loops are properly engaged under your motorcycle gloves.

Difficulty inserting armour after washing

Ensure the garment is completely dry and the armour pockets are free of debris; use a gentle folding motion to slide the pads into the pockets.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design allows for standalone use or layering under other gear
  • Lightweight and flexible Micro-Lock armour reduces rider fatigue
  • Excellent ventilation for warm-weather riding
  • Secure fit with thumb loops to prevent sleeve ride-up
  • Low-profile silhouette fits comfortably under casual outerwear

Cons

  • No integrated weatherproofing (waterproof or windproof)
  • Mesh construction may feel cold during early morning or high-altitude rides

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum effectiveness, the Knox Urbane Pro MkIII should fit snugly against the body to keep the armour plates correctly positioned over joints. The thumb loops should be used to anchor the sleeves before putting on gloves.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always remove the Micro-Lock armour inserts before cleaning the shirt.
  2. Machine wash the garment on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent.
  3. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the technical fabrics.
  4. Air dry the garment in a shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent material shrinkage.
  5. Reinsert the armour only when the shirt is completely dry.
