Motorcycle Trousers

In the event of an accident it is frequently the lower half of the body that come into contact with the ground, and usually for the longest time, so the level of protection offered by a trouser is of paramount importance. By contrast, the trouser takes less impact from the wind and rain than does the jacket, so features like thermal liners may not be quite so vital. Leather is naturally abrasion resistant, so leather motorcycle trousers can give you a significant level of protection if you end up sliding down the road. But leather is not good in the rain and has few thermal properties, so leather trousers are not so good in the winter. A good textile motorcycle trouser won’t absorb the rain and, of course, most trousers will have a thermal liner for greater warmth and comfort. All proper motorcycle trousers will come with armour in the knees and hips and, dependent on your riding, you may look for features like anti-abrasion backings, air-vents, stretch panels for comfort, and reflective areas for better visibility. We recommend you also consider motorcycle jeans as an option as the modern protective jean can offer great abrasion and impact protection as well as comfort and style on your motorbike. Our favourite are the Rokker jeans which we have made to our own specification and come as standard with D3O armour. Their impressive slide time and the evidence we have from accidents gives us the confidence to recommend them to our customers.

Klim Switchback cargo pant in teak

Scot: Great trousers that might actually justify the price

Never thought Id spend £300 on a pair of bike jeans well cargo trousers, but Ive been looking for a pair of brown bike trousers for a while now since I went a bit OTT on green jackets and green trousers just doesnt really go. These somehow do it all, the vents down the side work incredibly well, Im usually too hot and bothered to ride in anything over 27 degrees here in the UK, but these really help with my mesh jacket, a lot better than all my other bike jeans. And actually cooler than riding in normal jeans which is what I generally do when its too hot for bike jeans yes I know its bad. The pockets are also great and actually usable, I never keep anything in my pockets in case something falls out but the zip leg pocket on the right is nice and secure so keep phone and keys and stuff in there. Theres also a handy small elastic key type pocket which I use for keeping my car key in my pocket my bike cover and locks go in the boot, my only storage but its useful for me, rather than holding all my keys and phone in my hands or something. Fitting is great, I tend to go for 36 recently to get thigh and groin space, even though tis baggy around the waist,then wear a belt to compensate. Not with these, 34 waist is perfect, not too baggy in general like 36 was and fits great. I also went for the long leg which I think is something like 34 or 36, great length for me being 63. I always suffer which trousers riding up on the bike and sitting on top of my riding shoes exposing my socks because of my height, so these long legs are perfect.

Rukka Kemi trousers in black

Michael: Great Comfy Pants

Very good and comfy pants with lots of stretch and super armour included. Rukka make great kit.

Rukka Air Vihti pants in black

Richard: Defence and Comfort

When choosing bike gear, and particularly summer touring gear, it is sometimes easy to get carried away with having the most comfortable and cool clothing on the market, at the same overlooking the main reason for wearing it! On a bike, comfort is important, but Id argue that safety is even more vital, so finding a trade-off is the name of the game. These trousers, with proper armour the type that does not end up on the inside of your knees, doing nothing at all are a great trade-off. They are comfortable, practical and certainly feel robust and safe. In my so far limited test, they also have good airflow, and being Rukka, a good warranty. Sadly, they are also expensive, but you cant win them all!
