Product Description

You can read Boris’ review of this product from BikeMe here

ROADSKIN water resistant hoodies have a zipped front and are made from a heavyweight 280gram 100% cotton and are fully lined with military spec Kevlar®. These hoodies are great for a commute or quick ride down to the shops. Also a fantastic alternative to your leather jacket on a hot day as it breathes so well compared to the leather. Our ‘rain’ hoodies have heavier weight Kevlar® than our ‘dry’ hoods as well as water resistance, which makes them more suitable for cooler climates where you might get caught in a shower or bit of rain. New ‘Elite’, lightweight CE Approved spine and elbow armour is included with your purchase.

The quality of these garments is outstanding and CANNOT be compared to the flimsy and much cheaper versions offered on the market.

Abrasion-Resistant Para-Aramid Fabric

Our ROADSKIN® protective jeans and hoodies are fully lined with abrasion resistant para-aramid fabric used by special forces, the police force and emergency services. Para-aramid is a technical term for brand names of high performance manmade fibres such as DuPont™ Kevlar®

Kevlar® is a well-known component of personal protective armour such as combat helmets and ballistic vests. The PASGT helmet and vest used by military forces since the 1980s both have Kevlar® as a key component, as do their replacements. Other military uses include bulletproof facemasks used by sentries and spall liners used to protect the crews of armoured fighting vehicles. Related civilian applications include Emergency Service’s protection gear if it involves high heat (e.g., tackling a fire), and Kevlar® body armour such as vests for police officers, security and special services.

Part Lined Jean statement

ROADSKIN® have conducted in house tests to simulate highway use, where the strength of the whole jean holding together was tested rather than certain individual patches.
Part lined jeans that are subject to the strength of the denim itself did not come up to our personal requirements.

The only designs that really held together was when the lining was all over the inside of the jean, ie Fully Lined.

We therefore will not make part lined garments, as although they do serve a purpose with easy riding and commuting around town, unfortunately most motorcyclists take no notice of warnings to ride appropriately in part lined jeans and insist on testing the limits of their garments that are providing limited protection.

Our opinion on even quality part lined jeans, is that they are like having a good lock on a soft wood door.

Hence, we no longer manufacture part lined garments.
