If you happen to get caught in an unintentional game of ride-n-slide, abrasion resistance is your main priority after impact protection. The materials used in our riding gear are selected on their high levels of performance against abrasion, tearing, and heat.

Below you’ll find a selection of our most special constructions and materials, such as fully woven (singe layer) jeans, SuperFabric® reinforcements, and the versatility of aramid fibres.

Heat-resistant material with a very high melting point on the outer shell at the bottom of the legs. Prevents a meltdown whenever your exhaust and pants accidentally meet each other.

SuperFabric® is a highly abrasion-resistant material. The fabric is overlaid with countless little guard plates on top that are arranged in a way that allows flexibility without sacrificing performance.

They are coated in a resin that is also used in the production of helmets and can withstand aggressive abrasion – and are also highly slash- and rip resistant.

So all in all, an effective additional layer of protection in key areas. You’ll find it in our gloves, jackets, pants, and even our MotoGP suits, where they cover critical seams.

Impact areas are reinforced on the inside with a layer of Aramid fabric against the outer shell. Provides extra resistance against abrasion, rips and tears where it is most important.

Aramid fibres are incorporated during the manufacturing process, due to which it is fully woven into the outer shell of the garment, creating a single-layer jeans.

Provides a high level of resistance against abrasion, cuts and tears, and improved breathability compared to reinforced pants.

Cordura fibres are incorporated during the manufacturing process, due to which it is fully woven into the outer shell of the garment, creating a single-layer jeans.

Provides a high level of resistance against abrasion, cuts, and tears, and improved breathability compared to reinforced pants.

The strength of Kevlar with the stretching capabilities of Spandex. Dynamic aramid stretch is a strong and durable double-weave fabric with aramid yarns. This material has 4-way stretch that provides our racing suits with an optimal fit and high level of comfort at the highest level of motorcycle racing.

An invisible line of defence on the inside of racing gloves. The liner is made of aramid fibres to raise resistance against abrasion, rips, tears, and heat.

The palms of racing gloves are reinforced with a double layer of premium-quality kangaroo leather to provide a very high level of abrasion resistance in the event of a crash. Due to its high abrasion resistance, kangaroo leather enables us to use a thinner piece which in turn provides better feeling at the handlebars.

Strong fabric with a fine squared pattern texture with reinforced yarns that makes the material stronger and very resistant to tearing. Different variants of ripstop are used in our riding gear, depending on the style and intended use of the garment.

An abrasion-resistant fabric that is sometimes used as reinforcement in critical areas such as the shoulders, elbows, or knees.

Covec® fibres are incorporated during the manufacturing process, due to which it is fully woven into the outer shell of the garment, creating a single-layer jeans.

Provides the best possible resistance against abrasion, cuts, and tears, and improved breathability compared to reinforced pants. Thanks to the Covec® fibres, the jeans won’t deteriorate during the washing process, opposed to jeans with other abrasion-resistant fibres.
