FAQs
Are these jeans suitable for all seasons?
They are designed with breathability in mind, making them excellent for spring, summer, and early autumn, but they are not insulated for cold winter riding.
Can I remove the knee armor?
Yes, the AIRFORCE knee protectors can be easily removed for cleaning or if you intend to wear the jeans casually off the motorcycle.
How do I ensure I order the right size?
The SHIMA Metro jeans are designed for a true-to-size fit; use your standard UK dress size to select the best match.
Does the ARMORTWILL make the jeans feel heavy?
No, ARMORTWILL is designed to be lightweight while providing high abrasion resistance, so the jeans maintain a comfortable, natural weight.
Can I wash these in a standard washing machine?
Yes, but you must remove the protective armor first and use a gentle, low-temperature cycle.
Troubleshooting
Knee protector is shifting out of position
Adjust the internal pocket placement while wearing the jeans in a seated riding position to ensure the honeycomb structure aligns with your kneecap.
Jeans feel too stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and avoid over-drying; the cotton fabric will soften naturally after a short period of wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your SHIMA Metro Jeans, ensure the internal knee protector pockets are correctly positioned when you first put them on. The armor should sit directly over your kneecaps while in a seated riding position. For cleaning, always remove the removable protectors before washing. Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent, and allow the jeans to air dry to preserve the integrity of the cotton fabric and the internal reinforcements. Avoid using harsh chemicals or high-heat tumble drying, as these can degrade the protective properties of the materials over time.
