Women's Textile Motorcycle Trousers

A women's cut for well-placed protectors

A women's motorcycle pant is not just a shortened men's model: it follows a more defined waist, a wider hip, and a different inseam length. This pattern is important for safety, as the knee and hip protectors only work if they stay on the joint in riding position, with legs bent on the footrests. The Bering Lady Alkor thus adopts a close-fitting cut in a stretchy softshell, with adjustable-height knee protectors to fit different leg lengths. Zips at the bottom of the legs make it easier to put on over boots.

Membrane, lining, and vents for all-season riding

The touring textile pant layers several materials to adapt to the weather: an abrasion-resistant outer fabric, a waterproof and breathable membrane, and a removable thermal lining for winter. The Tucano Urbano Fullstorm for women, from the Milanese brand, combines a Hydroscud membrane, a detachable thermal lining, and ventilation zips on the thighs. The Bering Lady Alkor features a mid-season softshell with a waterproof membrane and zipped vents. The RST Adventure, designed for trail riding, integrates D3O protection, a flexible material at rest that hardens instantly on impact.

Reading the EN 17092 label on motorcycle trousers

Motorcycle clothing sold in Europe is classified as personal protective equipment, certified according to the EN 17092 standard. The label sewn inside shows a class: AAA for the highest abrasion and tear resistance, AA for road and touring, A for lighter urban use, B for garments without protectors, and C for a base layer that holds protectors. The knee and hip protectors have their own marking, EN 1621-1, at level one or two depending on the energy transmitted during impact. The Bering Lady Alkor, for example, is certified in class A.

Frequently asked questions

How to choose the size of a women's textile motorcycle pant?

Measure your waist, hip, and inseam, then compare to the brand's guide. When trying on, sit with bent legs: the protectors should stay on the knees and the bottom should cover the top of the boot.

Are there women's motorcycle pants in larger sizes?

Yes, most brands offer their women's trousers in a wide range of sizes. Rely on your hip measurement rather than your ready-to-wear size, and check that the size adjustments allow room for a thermal layer.

Can a motorcycle pant be connected to a jacket?

Many textile trousers, like the Bering Lady Alkor, have a connection zip at the back. When linked to a jacket of the same brand, it prevents the jacket from riding up and exposing the lower back during a slide.

Is a rain pant enough over a city pant?

It keeps you dry on a short journey, but it doesn't protect in the event of a fall due to lack of protectors and abrasion-resistant fabric. Mixed models Harisson, ADX, or Tucano fit under the seat and are handy in a downpour.

How to wash a membrane textile motorcycle pant?

Remove the protectors, close the zips, and wash at thirty degrees with liquid detergent, without fabric softener that clogs the membrane. A water-repellent spray product, applied from time to time, restores the fabric's ability to bead water.
