Leather Pants and Riding TrousersLeather below the waist does two jobs, and they need different cuts. Riding pants are built for the bike: heavier hide at the seat and knees, pockets for CE armour, and a pre-curved leg so they sit correctly in a riding position instead of pulling tight when you fold your knees. Fashion leather trousers are cut straight, in a softer hide, for wear off the bike.Both are here, for men and women, in black, brown and a range of colours. Riding pants are the ones to pair with a protective jacket – most zip to a jacket hem so the two stay joined at speed.Sizing runs closer than denim. Measure your natural waist and inside leg, and check the size guide before ordering rather than assuming your jeans size carries over.
