Taranis Elite AAA-rated single-layer motorcycle jeans in dark indigo blue

€199,00 EUR


These motorcycle jeans for men, in dark indigo blue achieve the highest possible protection rating - AAA – in one cool and comfortable layer

Introducing Roadskin’s Taranis Elite motorcycle jeans - the latest addition to our collection of armoured jeans. These jeans are the first to receive the AAA safety rating in a single layer, as tested by the SATRA Technology Centre in the UK. The Kevlar fibres are woven into premium denim, providing the necessary protection while maintaining the look and feel of regular five-pocket jeans. The Taranis also features a good amount of elastane for stretch, ensuring maximum comfort both on and off the bike. These jeans are soft to the touch and look great, while also providing the peace of mind that comes with wearing AAAs.

Taranis Indigo Motorcycle Jeans Features:

Our Taranis motorcycle jeans are designed with a special mesh lining. This lining serves two important purposes. Firstly, it helps to keep you cool during the hot summer months. Secondly, and more importantly, it provides a layer of protection for your skin in case you are involved in an accident by minimizing the risk of tearing during the initial impact.

Cut with a straight leg in dark indigo denim, the stylish and lightweight triple-stitched Taranis Elite jeans will take you anywhere you want to go – they’re perfect for the road, stylish enough for work and great for the pub. They are especially suitable for touring and all climates except the coldest (for cold weather, we recommend our Paranoid AAA motorcycle jeans).

Bennetts High Performance Motorcycle Jeans Award - Gold

Bennetts High Performance Award

This garment has won the Bennetts High Performance Award, a non-profit program that helps riders choose the equipment that best suits their needs.

Armour

Important information regarding motorcycle jean armour

It is very important to wear the armour provided with these motorcycle jeans, not just to help protect your bones but also to reduce the impact of the bone against the fabric in the key areas. The fabric is not designed to withstand impact injury, in the key areas, without armour.

Best fit guide

To find your best fit for our motorcycle jeans, please do the following:

Grab your favourite pair of jeans. Then measure across the waist in inches. Double that to get the waist size.

Then measure from the crotch of the jeans to the end of one leg. With both measurements to hand, you are ready to order.

Motorcycle Jeans Testing & Ratings

Since 21st April 2018 all motorcycle clothing has to be certified as PPE or Personal Protective Equipment by law.

Clothing is classified to different levels AAA being the most protective down to C being the least. Loosely speaking you can say that they are most suited to the type of riding below but always go for the highest if possible.  

  • AAA Motorways and higher speeds
  • AA Touring
  • A City or Urban use 30mph and below
  • B No armour so not advised
  • C Waste of time

This testing is done by certified bodies both here (we use SATRA) and abroad under the standard EN 17092-2.

Caring for your motorcycle jeans

Keeping your motorcycle jeans in peak condition is important not just for how they look but for your safety – you might say, there’s a lot riding on it!

Once you’ve settled on a favourite pair, and worn them in, and they’ve become a faithful friend in pretty much every and any riding situation, you’ll want them to last forever.

We have all heard about the denim aficionados are reluctant to wash their jeans, but motorcycle jeans are different. Not washing them means that they will inevitably degrade over time, thanks for grime, grease and sweat.

We have produced a guide on keeping them clean and in tip top condition.
