The flip side is that the way the leggings fit means they hold the armour in place, and it doesn’t slide around or move out of position as it can do in some motorcycle jeans. There are several types of armour available on the market, and some are not much better than a piece of foam, whereas others are extremely good at protecting you in an accident. A Grade: A-grade trousers will be best suited for urban riding and relatively slower speeds. You will likely find them lighter weight. For many years, women have struggled to get motorcycle clothing that fits, is attractive and protective. For a long time, ladies have spent many riding hours in men’s kit that is ill-fitting, heavy and unsuitable. Textile clothing is the only option for waterproof gear (other than a set of waterproofs thrown over your clothing).
AA Grade: AA-grade trousers will have been tested more thoroughly in conditions that all sorts of riders are likely to encounter. In terms of protection, motorcycle trousers are the same for men as women, and the levels of protection available are equal. CE Approval Over the past couple of years, designers have caught on to this growing trend and subsequently produced women’s riding pants that actually provide the comfort, protection, and flattering fit that female riders have been searching for. You’d assume that anything this good must cost a fortune; but high-quality armored leggings are available in a price range that every rider can afford. If you’re dubious, I can’t blame you. Trust me when I say that armored leggings will surprise the hell out of any woman who has struggled to find gear in the past. You might be convinced that you need to try a pair, but you might not know where to look to find the best options. I’ve got you, girl!! Abrasion resistance is high as they are fully lined with Dupont Kevlar Lining, the same as what is used in standard motorcycle textile trousers. Since men have these issues too, gear manufacturers have come up with unisex solutions. Thanks to the miracles of science, thinner more flexible armor can provide CE level 1 protection that doesn’t get in the way or leave bruises after a full day in the saddle. This type of armor also tends to be pretty subtle looking. Win, win!
ELLIE JEANS & MELISSA JEGGINGS
You will see trousers in the stores with velcro/poppers/zips for an adjustable fit, different leg length options and sizes from XXS to 5XL. Although fully CE approved as motorcycle protective wear, they just look and feel like normal leggings. P.S. Gogo Gear also makes a men’s version of the legging that’s designed to be worn as a base layer.
Current ladies’ style and fashion trends have been thought about and have filtered down in the form of skinny riding jeans and leggings. Previously only to be seen on expensive high-end brands like Rukka, Richa and Dainese. More recently, Alpinestars and Oxford have started producing waterproof laminate kit. BreathabilityMost leggings will be fully lined with some Kevlar or Aramid fibre which is another advantage over and above half-lined jeans. Key Differences for Women
The short version is that CE Level 2 transmits less energy through the armour and protects you more from injury. Trousers are now being produced with higher waists and more room in the hip area, allowing ladies to sit comfortably in the saddle all day long. Other Considerations If you’ve ever shopped for a pair of after-market heated grips, the Oxford brand might ring a bell. I don’t know how this popular bike accessory company got into making ladies riding pants, but they’re absolutely nailing it. Women’s motorcycle leggings come in a range of sizing, leg lengths and rises to cover different body shapes. Although many manufacturers run true to size, be prepared to be flexible for the best fit. This may be affected by the fitment of armour, which needs to sit snugly to do its job properly, but not so tight as to affect comfort and mobility. AAA Grade: AAA grade is the highest certification and is mostly found on sports-riding clothing, where impacts are more likely, and at higher speeds.These leggings are AA rated (as tested at SATRA), and offer incredible abrasion resistance. They come supplied with CE level 2 knee and hip protectors, to further help keep you safe on your motorbike. With a full range of sizes and three leg lengths, boasting a high quality finish, these leggings are designed for women who want function but want to look good too! Safety features of our ladies motorcycle leggings It works to a point; however, if the zips aren’t waterproof, water can seep through, and over time the liner can get worn, rip and be no longer fit for purpose. You love your favourite pair of leggings, the way they make you feel, and now you can wear them on your bike too. Don't sacrifice comfort for safety, these fully DuPont Kevlar lined leggings give a skinny fit to any legs, with a flattering high waist finish that is practical on the road. Certified abrasion resistance means peace of mind that they're not too good to be true.
