Leather Construction for Maximum Protection

Cowhide Durability: Premium cowhide leather construction provides exceptional abrasion resistance in the event of a slide. In motorcycle safety testing, quality leather significantly outperforms textile materials in slide protection—crucial for sport riders who face higher speeds and more aggressive lean angles.

Waterproof Design: Stay dry in all weather conditions with advanced waterproof construction that protects you from rain and wet roads while maintaining breathability for comfort during long rides. The waterproof membrane prevents water ingress without creating a sauna effect.

Wear-Resistant Performance: Built to withstand the demands of aggressive riding, these pants feature reinforced stitching and wear-resistant construction that maintains protective properties over time. Track day after track day, these pants deliver consistent protection.

CE Protection: What It Means for Sport Riders

CE (Conformité Européenne) certification means the protective armor in these pants has passed rigorous European safety testing for impact absorption. When you go down on track or street, CE-rated armor significantly reduces the risk of fractures and soft tissue damage to your knees and hips—two of the most vulnerable areas during motorcycle crashes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use these pants for track days?
A: Yes, these pants are designed for racing and track day use. The premium leather construction and CE protective gear meet the requirements for most track day organizations. However, always check with your specific track or racing organization for their gear requirements—some may require one-piece or two-piece suits that zip together.

Q: Can I wear these pants in the rain?
A: Absolutely. These pants feature waterproof construction designed to keep you dry during wet weather riding. The waterproof membrane prevents rain penetration while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping you comfortable in all conditions.

Q: How do I care for leather motorcycle pants?
A: Clean with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner after rides. Condition the leather every 2-3 months with quality leather conditioner to prevent drying and cracking. For waterproofing maintenance, reapply waterproof treatment annually or as recommended by the manufacturer. Always air dry naturally—never use direct heat sources.

Q: What does CE protective gear mean?
A: CE (Conformité Européenne) certification indicates that the protective armor meets European safety standards for motorcycle gear. This ensures a baseline level of impact protection that has been independently tested. CE-rated armor significantly reduces injury risk during crashes.

Q: How should leather motorcycle pants fit for sport riding?
A: For sport riding, leather pants should fit snugly in a riding position (knees bent, leaning forward). The pants will break in and conform to your body over time. Ensure CE armor sits correctly at knees and hips when in riding position. There should be no bunching behind the knees that could restrict movement during aggressive cornering.

Q: Will these pants work with my sport bike riding position?
A: Yes, these pants are designed with racing ergonomics in mind. The cut accommodates the aggressive forward-leaning position of sport bikes, with pre-curved knees and articulated hips that prevent restriction during cornering and allow full range of motion.

Size Guide for Performance Fit

Proper fit is essential for both safety and performance:

• Measure Your Waist: Measure around your natural waistline where you normally wear pants
• Measure Inseam: Measure from crotch to ankle along the inside leg
• Consider Break-In: Leather will stretch 5-10% and conform to your body over the first 3-5 wears
• Test in Riding Position: Critical for sport riders—try pants sitting on the bike with knees bent and leaning forward to ensure comfort and mobility during aggressive riding
• Check Armor Placement: Ensure CE armor sits correctly at knees and hips in riding position, not when standing
• Account for Base Layers: If you plan to wear thermal layers underneath, size up accordingly

Refer to the manufacturer's size chart for specific measurements. For sport riding, fit is critical—pants that are too loose can shift during riding, moving armor out of position.

🛡️ Safety & Performance Guarantee

Safety Note: Inspect your gear regularly for damage. Replace after any significant crash, even if damage isn't visible. Leather and armor lose protective properties after impacts.

Care & Maintenance for Racing Gear

• Post-Ride Cleaning: Wipe down with damp cloth after rides to remove road grime and track debris. Use leather-specific cleaners for deep cleaning monthly
• Conditioning: Apply quality leather conditioner every 2-3 months to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking from UV exposure and flexing
• Waterproofing: Reapply waterproofing treatment annually or after 20+ rides in wet conditions to maintain water resistance
• Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use padded hangers to maintain shape and prevent stress creases
• Drying: If wet from rain or sweat, air dry naturally. Never use radiators, dryers, or direct heat—excessive heat damages leather and CE armor
• Track Day Inspection: Before each track day, inspect seams, zippers, and armor attachment points for wear or damage
• Armor Care: Remove CE armor before washing. Clean armor separately with mild soap and water, air dry completely before reinstalling
