FAQs
Are hip protectors included with these jeans?
No, hip protectors are not included as standard. The jeans feature prepared pockets to accept optional hip protectors, which can be purchased separately.
What does 'CE rating A' mean?
CE rating 'A' signifies that the garment meets specific European safety standards for protective clothing, indicating a baseline level of abrasion resistance and impact protection suitable for motorcycling.
Can these jeans be worn in hot weather?
The jeans feature a cotton/fixed mesh lining for breathability. While suitable for many conditions, extensive wear in very high temperatures might feel warm due to the protective layers.
How do I ensure the Aramid lining is effective?
The Aramid lining is strategically placed in key impact areas. Proper fit and ensuring the lining remains intact (avoiding damage during washing) are crucial for its effectiveness in an impact scenario.
What is the difference between 'Urban' and 'Classic' fit?
The 'Urban/Classic' fit is designed to be more fashion-oriented and closer to everyday wear, offering a comfortable fit both on and off the motorcycle, compared to more traditional, baggier riding jeans.
How should I wash these jeans to protect the Aramid lining?
Wash on a cold, gentle cycle and avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. High heat can degrade the protective qualities of the Aramid material.
Troubleshooting
Knee protectors feel uncomfortable or out of place
Utilize the continuously adjustable protector system to reposition the knee armor for a better fit. Ensure the correct size of the jeans is being worn.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Jeans feel too tight or restrictive
Confirm you are wearing the correct size. The stretch fabric should offer some flexibility, but ensure there is adequate room for movement while seated on a motorcycle.
Protective lining feels stiff
This is normal for Aramid lining. It will become more flexible with wear. Avoid excessive heat during washing or drying, which can damage the material.
