FAQs
Are these jeans suitable for summer riding?
Yes, the thermal liner is removable, allowing for better ventilation in warmer conditions. However, they are primarily designed as all-weather gear and might be warmer than dedicated summer textile pants.
What is the CE certification rating?
The RST S1 CE Textile Jeans have a certification rating of AA, indicating a high level of protection suitable for road use.
What type of protection do they offer?
They come with CE Level 1 protectors for both the knees and hips.
Can I wear these jeans with any motorcycle jacket?
They are designed to integrate seamlessly with RST jackets using the 360° connection zipper. While they may zip to some other brands, full integration and optimum protection are best achieved with a compatible RST jacket.
How do I clean the waterproof membrane?
Clean the garment according to the care instructions (machine wash at 30°C, gentle cycle). Avoid fabric softeners, as they can damage the membrane's performance. Ensure the garment is thoroughly rinsed.
What does 'Road fit' mean?
'Road fit' refers to a cut designed for comfortable, upright riding positions commonly found on touring and commuting motorcycles, as opposed to a sportier, more aggressive posture.
Are the knee protectors adjustable?
The knee protectors are located in pockets that allow for some adjustment to ensure they are positioned correctly over the knee for optimal impact protection.
Troubleshooting
Water ingress despite waterproof membrane
Check that all seams are intact and that the waterproof membrane is not damaged. Ensure the 360° connection zipper is fully sealed to the jacket. Re-apply water-repellent treatment if necessary, following product instructions.
Discomfort or poor fit
Adjust the adjustable waist and legs for a better fit. Ensure knee protectors are correctly seated. The stretch inserts should provide adequate movement; consider if the size is correct for your body proportions.
Zipper malfunction
Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Gently try to move the slider back and forth. If the zipper is damaged, professional repair may be required.
Reduced breathability
The membrane may be blocked by dirt or detergent residue. Clean the garment according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Ensure the outer fabric is clean.
