Product Information

Integrated c_change™ membrane. This membrane reacts independently to changing temperatures and activities and is 100% waterproof and windproof. It closes when exposed to cold and opens in response to warmth, the prevailing humidity and body moisture are taken into account in this process. In doing so, not only temperature but also air and body moisture are balanced out. c_change™ ensures the ideal body climate. In terms of fit, the elasticated waistband means you can throw them over most trousers, but unfortunately even with the ankle gussets open I had to take my boots off to get the waterproofs on. They come in four sizes, XS/S, M/L, XL/XXL, 3XL+ and the waistband has a lot of give so no worries there. Also, while being worn, I would have liked a few more inches on the leg length. When seated and wearing ankle boots, there is a definite risk of water going into the top of the boot – something I experienced first-hand. But if you’re a long-boot wearer then this isn’t a problem.

All motorcycle clothing in the UK requires CE certification; if the product ships without armour inserts, the rating applies to the fabric’s abrasion resistance. Made of 100% schoeller®-Denim-Dynatec (a revolutionary combination of schoeller®-dynatec and denim, thus extremely high resistance to abrasion as well as a genuine Jeans-look)

Fits Waist (in) is your waist measurement in inches. Wrap a measuring tape around the fullest part of your waist to verify. Single-layer jeans weave the protective fabric into the same layer as the main textile. This results in a more comfortable, more flattering-looking pair of jeans with better breathability. But single-layer garments are hard to waterproof effectively. And, unsurprisingly, they won’t offer as much slide time as multi-layered clothes. Waterproofing Vented Vented Jeans feature perforations or have zip opening vents to offer airflow to keep the body cool. (334) Merlin is one of the older names in motorcycling clothing, known for classic designs and premium tailoring. Providing the wax has been gently warmed prior to use it should be fairly easy to do without applying much pressure.

To make a pair of waterproof trousers, a membrane layer is typically required. Reissa, SinAqua, and Dry2Dry are the most popular materials for this waterproof layer. We like Thinsulate™ because… 3M™ invented it, in their words, to make living life in every season more enjoyable. Since then, they've chipped away at the boundaries and bulk that prevent pure, unbridled joy of the outdoors. Sound like that’s good for the British motorcyclist. We like Outlast® because… It was originally developed for NASA astronaut’s suits. Brave claim but true. Outlast Outlast Outlast offers micro encapsulated phase change materials, which are incorporated into fabrics and fibres for absorbing, storing, and releasing excess heat.

But having a soaking wet layer over a thin layer still feels like you’re wet. It’s clear the jeans’ cycling tech is dialed. The All-Weather Denim feels great to bike in. My movement wasn’t restricted, and the reflective accents on the ankle cuffs help when biking at night. Constructed using HTC fabric (nylon that’s tough and comfortable) and reinforced with Maxtex (high denier synthetic fabric), these jeans from RST are durable.

With the lining over the jeans you will be able to see if the lining sizing needs adjusting at all. Yet in my testing, I don’t think the mixture of technology is quite there yet. Weatherproof Jeans Test: Stay Dry With DUER We like Halley Stevensons because… They are the World’s leading manufacturers and innovators in waxed cotton and weatherproofed fabrics. All their dyeing and finishing is "under one roof" based at their Baltic Works in Dundee, UK. Both denim and textile jeans can be made to shed water, either with surface treatments, membranes or both.

It’s an odd sensation, and one that I don’t want to have when I’m at work, or home, or the bar after commuting in these pants. The retention system test involves placing the helmet’s retention straps under load in tension. For this test the load is progressive; first a load of 22.7 kg (49.9 lb.) is applied for 30 seconds, then it is increased to 136 kg (299.2 lb.) for 120 seconds, with measurement of the stretch or displacement of a fixed point on the retention strap from the apex of the helmet. After a month of testing, the jeans left me perplexed. The waterproof tech works, but with a huge asterisk. The denim on the outside still gets wet, but the water stops at the membrane, keeping your legs dry. Read on for my take on these first-of-their-kind jeans. We like Marton Mills because… They are a traditional family owned weaving mill in the heart of West Yorkshire. Their in house design team delivered a bespoke service to Merlin Bike Gear to enhance and reinforce the high standing of both companies’ products. Consistent quality and exemplary service has led to Marton Mills being the largest supplier of kilt fabrics in the UK. So the one instance I see these pants working well is if I get caught in an unexpected rainstorm for a brief amount of time.

It’s pretty powerful and barely noticeable in normal lighting conditions. Waterproofing is achieved using a membrane. We couldn’t find out which material is used, but we can confirm it’s effective and breathes reasonably well.Davida Speedster V3 - TRUE to size for 'triangular' head shapes. If you have a pronounced square or round shaped face, then choose one size lager than the chart indicates. The knee inserts and fabric are pre-bent for comfort in the riding position. These are a comfortable option for all-day riding. The premium materials and tailoring pay off in this regard. To remain waterproof your jeans will need to be rewaxed, how often this need sto be done will depend on how frequently you wear and wash your jeans.
