Skinny Fit Protection with Advanced Moisture Management

The Merlin Hardy Jeans combine a contemporary skinny-fit aesthetic with a high-performance blend of Cordura® and Coolmax® fabrics. Engineered for the modern commuter, these jeans integrate genuine DuPont® Kevlar® reinforcement in critical impact zones to provide robust abrasion resistance without the bulk of traditional riding trousers. The inclusion of moisture-wicking technology ensures temperature regulation and comfort across all seasons.

Key Features

• Tri-Blend Fabric: Utilises 70% Cordura® cotton for durability, 28% Coolmax® for moisture management, and 2% Elastine for active stretch.
• Kevlar® Reinforcement: Features 220gsm DuPont® Kevlar® panels in the knees, hips, and rear for superior abrasion resistance.
• Adjustable Knee Armour: Includes CE Level 2 protectors that can be repositioned to ensure a precise fit and optimal safety.
• Impact Preparation: Equipped with dedicated internal pockets ready to house optional CE-rated hip armour.
• Safety Seam Construction: Implements reinforced stitching throughout the garment to prevent seam failure during a slide.
• Climate Control: Integrated Coolmax® weave pulls moisture away from the skin, while a mesh liner improves internal airflow.
• Jacket Integration: Features a YKK short connecting zipper to securely attach the jeans to compatible riding jackets.
• Premium Hardware: Finished with a YKK self-locking fly zipper for reliable and secure fastening.

Uncompromising Comfort and Fit

The Hardy Jeans are designed with a focus on ergonomics, featuring a flatlock stitch lining that sits smooth against the skin to eliminate pressure points. The 2% Elastine content provides the necessary flexibility for a natural riding position, while the skinny-fit cut ensures the armour remains correctly positioned on the body. This combination of technical materials and a refined silhouette makes them a versatile choice for riders transitioning from the bike to a casual environment.
