Liberte Nite Kevlar Motorbike Jeans - EVOQE

Kevlar is a tough, synthetic fabric that comes under the class of aramid fibre. It was originally produced at DuPont group of companies by two scientists, Herbert Blades and Stephanie Kwolek, though the latter is most commonly credited with it.

This para-aramid has great tensile strength due to the numerous inter-chain bonds in its structure and the way the fibers are closely knitted together. Kevlar is light weight but strong and has high cut and abrasion resistance. Since its introduction in the synthetic fibers industry, Kevlar has become a popular fabric and today it accounts for a large percentage of the para-aramid market, worldwide.  

Initially, Kevlar was used in bullet proof vests and aircraft bodies but it has found its way into the protective apparel industry fast. It is used in things like sporting jackets, backpackers’ apparel and riding gear such as motorcycle pants.

Crashing on the road and going down with your bike is an unpleasant experience and all riders want to be perfectly ready for it. But no matter how cautious one is, the chances of meeting an accident are still high especially on roads that the rider has not yet explored. Wearing specialized apparel reinforced with protective Kevlar aramid fibers gives the rider peace of mind on the road. Motorcycle jeans and trousers lined with Kevlar are an ideal choice for a number of reasons. Kevlar fiber is used in fabric lining of jeans offer tear and abrasion resistance so that rider can enjoy the ride.

The light weight of Kevlar is best-suited for the riders’ comfort. It gives them room to move around without feeling uncomfortable. Motorcycles are heavy vehicles and there no need for your clothing to be the bulky and heavy. The toughness of Kevlar makes it a rider’s best friend. It will protect you against road rash in case of slip. According to DuPont, Kevlar is “reliable in high tear and abrasion situations” due to its ductility. It’s hard to tear apart or abrade during exposure to extreme conditions. Kevlar can also resist thermal energy- caused by friction due to sliding on tarmac- up to great extents. The rider is thus given the ultimate protection from heat and cut.

All in all, it is important to plan ahead for a ride on the road and protective apparel is crucial. The rider must carefully choose brands that offer Motorcycle jeans reinforced with original DuPont Kevlar of a high density.

Motorcycle Kevlar Jeans: Features and Benefits – EVOQE

Although motorcycle riders have their own customized set of preferences for motorcycle jeans, all of them keep safety as a top priority. With so many options available, it can become difficult to choose the right kind of material that would provide the best safety features. Materials like textile and leather provide good protection but make the rider look out of place in casual settings. Denim reinforced with Kevlar aramid lining, on the other hand, looks great and has comfortable fitting and provides good safety features. 

The three S’s of Motorcycle Jeans: Safety, Substance and Style:

Today, technological developments and tools have enabled motorcycle gear manufacturers to produce protective armoured motorcycle jeans, designed to provide protection while riding and to look equally good anywhere else. These motorcycle jeans combine the three S’s: Safety, Substance and Style. These riding motorbike jeans are made of denim fabric and reinforced with protective fibre lining such as DuPont Kevlar, Aramid and Cordura Denim and provide seamless stitching for that classic jeans look. It is a misconception that armoured denim jeans lined with protective lining do not provide good protection in the event of a spill. If denim riding motorcycle jeans are lined sufficiently with a good quality and well trusted brand of Aramid Kevlar then they can provide good protection from abrasion resistance, cut heat protection.  Along with that if motorcycle jeans feature armours that protects the rider at all high risk areas such as knees & hips from impact. There are so many varieties of motorcycle jeans out there that it is quite challenging to choose from them.

How to choose the perfect Motorcycle Jeans:

So how do you choose the best motorcycle jeans? One of the well-known and sought-after protective jeans are those reinforced with original DuPont Kevlar. It is a strong, abrasion-resistant fibre that protects the rider well during a slide due to its high tensile fibre strength and modulus. DuPont Kevlar is tested and proven protective fabric used widely in denim motorcycle jeans as reinforced protective lining. It is imperative to avoid a cheap motorcycle jeans lined with low quality aramid fabric from unknown source, which does not have any proven credentials for protection against abrasion or cut resistance.

Another thing to look for in Motorcycle Jeans is the armour that they provide. Some brands offer CE Level 1 or poor quality armours which are an absolute no-go.  The best motorcycle jeans come with approved CE Level 2 knee and hip armour which are also comfortable to ride in. 

Motorcycle Kevlar jeans must be comfortable to wear and should not be too bulky which may cause distraction during extended hours of riding. Motorcycle jeans made with stretch denim in slim fitting is a good choice as these are comfortable and have snug fit.
