Motorcycle Pants

Motorcyclists need a quality wardrobe for riding, and this includes a pair of pants. Motorcycle leggings come in a variety of styles, colors, and materials. Having the right pants will make your ride safer and more comfortable.

What types of motorcycle pants are there?

Motorcycle leggings come in several different main styles, which include the following:

  • Cruiser: Cruiser, or touring, is a common style for regular riding. They can be made from leather or textiles.
  • Chaps: Chaps are made from leather and go on over a regular pair of jeans. They are good at protecting the riders legs and are a traditional part of motorcycle culture.
  • Riding: Riding jeans are designed for the most casual look. They often have Kevlar in the denim for reinforcement but on the outside look like regular jeans.
How should you choose motorcycle pants?

Safety and comfort should be your top concerns when buying pants for riding a motorcycle. There are also a number of other features to meet the various needs of riders. The safest materials include leather, textile, and Kevlar. Many come with armor options. The size of pants you wear regularly is a good place to start when shopping for motorcycle use.

What features can riding pants have?

You can find styles with extra padding or armor to provide extra protection from impacts, slides, or debris. Some styles have zippered, waterproof pockets to protect any belongings you might wish to store in them. Some styles come with ventilated mesh underneath removable sections of material. This is advantageous in hot weather. Waterproof styles are handy if you get caught in the rain.

How should motorcycle pants fit?

As with all clothes, the only way to make sure a size or brand will fit you is to try it on. Follow all sizing guides for a match. They should be snug but not constricting, and you should leave some room for layers for when cold weather sets in. A pair should look long while standing so they will cover your legs while sitting on a bike.

How should you wash motorcycle pants?

Any directions that came with the pants or are present on the tags should take priority. Washing instructions will vary heavily depending on the material. Some will need to be hand washed. Others will be fine on regular machine cycles. Unless gear is specifically stated to be dryer safe, hanging it to dry is advisable. In most cases, armor should be removed before washing.
