Quick answers

Armour questions

Can I use my own armour?

Yes. The knee sleeve takes knee armour about 21–26 cm tall and 13–17 cm wide. The dual hip pocket has a larger and a smaller compartment, so any hip armour fits. We have fitted Safetech, D3O, Knox, SAS-TEC and Cerros. Choose Without Armour and slide yours in.

What do I get with the armour option?

One pair of Safetech knee protectors (EN 1621-1:2012, Level 2, Type A) and one pair of Safetech hip protectors (EN 1621-1:2012, Level 2, Type B), for ₹1,800 more than the jeans alone.

Is CE Level 2 better than Level 1?

Yes. EN 1621-1, the European standard for motorcycle limb armour, has two ratings. Level 2 is the higher one, so less of an impact reaches your knee or hip. The Safetech set we give is Level 2.

Do I need to remove the armour to wash the jeans?

Yes. Slide the knee and hip protectors out before every wash, and put them back once the jeans are dry.
