Innovative Single-Layer Protection for Summer Riding

The Merlin Dixon Jeans represent a breakthrough in protective denim, featuring a unique single-layer construction that achieves a CE Level AA safety rating without the bulk of traditional liners. Constructed from a soft blend of cotton, polyester, and elastane, these jeans offer exceptional breathability and stretch for all-day comfort. Designed for the road, they integrate slimline Armanox armour at both the hips and knees to maintain a casual aesthetic while providing high-level impact protection.

Key Features

• Single-Layer Construction: Combines high-strength fibres directly with denim to achieve AA protection without secondary internal layers.
• Armanox Hip Armour: Includes pre-fitted, slimline Level 1 hip protectors for vital impact coverage.
• Adjustable Knee Armour: Features pre-fitted Level 1 Armanox protectors that can be adjusted for a precise fit.
• Superior Breathability: Single-layer design promotes maximum airflow, making these ideal for spring and summer conditions.
• Integrated Stretch: Uses an elastane-infused denim mix to ensure freedom of movement on and off the motorcycle.
• Jacket Connection: Includes both short and long YKK zippers to securely attach the jeans to compatible riding jackets.
• Premium Hardware: Utilises genuine YKK zippers throughout for long-term durability and reliability.
• Classic Styling: Features a standard fit with a traditional five-pocket design and Route One branded rivets.

Comfort and Daily Versatility

The Dixon Jeans are engineered to feel like standard high-street denim while functioning as technical motorcycle apparel. The outer material is an 11.5oz mix of cotton, polyester, and elastane, resulting in a fabric that is remarkably soft against the skin. Internal comfort is further enhanced by poly-cotton twill pocket linings, ensuring there are no abrasive surfaces during long commutes or extended walks.
