FAQs
Are these pants suitable for all-year-round riding?
These pants are primarily designed for high temperatures and summer riding due to their extensive mesh fabric for maximum ventilation. They may not provide sufficient warmth for cold weather conditions.
Can I add hip protection?
Yes, the pants have a predisposition for soft Pro-Shape 2.0 protectors on the hips, which can be purchased separately and inserted into the designated pockets.
How do I clean the composite protectors?
Remove the protectors from the pants before washing. Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry completely before reinserting.
What is the purpose of the jacket-pants fastening system?
This system connects your Dainese jacket to the pants, preventing the pants from riding up and reducing wind entry, thereby enhancing safety and comfort.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Utilize the internal waist adjustment system to tailor the fit. Ensure the knee protectors are also adjusted to the correct height for optimal protection.
What material are the pants made of?
The pants are constructed with QuickDry fabric and feature significant mesh fabric inserts for enhanced breathability and lightness.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel too loose or too tight at the waist.
Adjust the waist fastening system to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
Knee protectors feel uncomfortable or misplaced.
Adjust the position of the composite knee protectors using the internal adjustment system. Ensure they are correctly seated before riding.
Reduced ventilation despite mesh panels.
Ensure mesh panels are not obstructed by other clothing or debris. Check for any blockages within the fabric.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.
Use a soft brush to clean the zipper teeth. Apply a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper track and operate it gently.
