No problem with that other than the fact that you will get pretty hot when it’s warm. In the summer, wearing Bowtex leggings can be uncomfortable. By contrast, in the winter they can deliver a useful degree of insulation.

But, here’s the thing: the whole goal with motorcycle leggings is to offer you a new plethora of protective options for your riding needs. Wear them under regular jeans? Yep. Wear them with no armor under armored motorcycle pants? You betcha. Wear them as an abrasion-proof base layer for your cold-riding days? That’s right. Wear them as standalone motorcycle pants? Ladies, beware.For all of the above questions and more, The Rider Team’s MRT Hypershield unisex leggings are one of the best motorcycle leggings for men out there that money can buy. Not once would we doubt this statement! Rating

Thank-you, Arlene for creating a truly functional, comfortable and SAFE product for your fellow lady rides. I, and so many others, appreciate it greatly!! Taken a trip to florida from Oklahoma on my motorcycle wearing these pants with degrees from 20 to 60. Perfect pants held up great, didnt get too cold. Did not feel bunched up very easy to get on and off the bike. I ride a harley softtail heritage classic. Love these pants. Im a big girl so i got a size 16 but should have gotten a 14. Perfect size though for layers!! Will be buying a second pair!!

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. The Elite leggings and tops take armour, and are the most abrasion-resistant products in the range. They are also the most expensive. For each grade, from A–AAA, trousers will undergo a more vigorous abrasion-resistance test at higher speeds and for longer. Most 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 MRT is part of The Rider Team, a manufacturer of protective motorcycle clothing from the United Kingdom. They have an interesting range of rider-specific products and the owner of the brand (Imran) is a good guy whose intentions are clear: make good-value motorcycle gear with a low-and-fair price tag.

The Standard Kevlar range sits somewhere between the two other lines. Not quite as protective as the Elite Dyneema products. And not quite so easy to wear and comfortable as the Essential top and bottom. 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 DuPount 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. Bowtex was founded by a BMW-mechanic from Brussels who gave up the search for the perfect motorcycle trousers. He, like so many of us, just wanted to wear his favourite jeans on the bike but felt bad about skimping on protection. So he developed the Bowtex abrasion-resistant leggings.Jeans and Leggings are a good choice too, as they are not lined with a windproof liner, so you will get some airflow. Your correct size will have the leggings bracing your lower body tightly and comfortably without many (if any) wrinkles on the chassis; the leggings must be a second skin of yours for them to do what they’re supposed to do (i.e. protect you). Design, comfort and ventilation The topic of motorcycle leggings for men is still a new one in the industry. Several brands have, slowly but surely, being launching unisex armored Kevlar-laden leggings with subtle hints as to their plausible use by males. Regardless, unisex motorcycle leggings continue to be embraced by ladies for the most part, yet not a lot of males are keen to wear armored leggings under their pants and trousers, let alone wear said leggings alone with no pants!
