KEVLAR STREET JEAN
Here is a pant that looks identical to Jeans but much better in every way:
1. Five times stronger than leather!
2. Tri-Armor that covers knee/shin and full wrap around thighs providing more coverage than any other motorcycle pant. Tri-Armor molds to your individual shape in 40 minutes or less.
3. Breathes better than Jeans in hot weather yet works better in cold weather. Water resistant, material dries in minutes after the rain stops. On a bike without a windshield it will take 30 minutes or longer in the rain before the water goes through.
4. Seven year warranty! Motoport sometimes may replace a zipper after 10 years or more of riding. How many pairs of Jeans would you buy in 10 or more years?
5. Made in the USA in house by Cycleport. Even after multiple crashes Motoport has always been able to repair these pants.
6. Made custom to fit exactly like your best fitting Jeans NO MATTER WHAT SIZE! If you gain or lose weight alterations can be made.
7. Machine Washable. Will never stretch out or shrink.
8. The only material other than leather that is approved for road racing! Four way stretch Kevlar/Dynatec/Lycra blend that makes these pants more comfortable than Jeans. (See "Save Your Hide.")
9. Mesh lined for comfort and ease in dressing/undressing.
Features
• Cycleport makes all of our synthetic pants with no Polyurethane coating on the inside. No worries of pant melting into your skin! (To see Polyurethane and Kevlar click on "Dictionary.")

• All critical seams are Safety Lock Stitched. (See Safety Lock Stitching in "Dictionary.") Seam strength on the Kevlar Jeans is over 2000lbs..
• Zipper fly with Velcro adjustable waist. Belt loops to use a standard belt.
• Zippers are top quality YKK.
• World's top rated, lightweight Tri-Armor that fully covers: full knee/shin and full wrap-around thigh armor. All Tri-Armor is in Velcro-secured pockets and can be removed. Motoport’s Tri-Armor covers more of the body than any other motorcycle apparel available. This provides the world's best overall coverage for impact protection. The perforated Tri-Armor doesn't make the pant warmer in hot weather. The armor makes a air space between the suit and your skin and allows the armor to breathe.

• Quad-Armor - a four-layer system that is the highest rated impact-absorbing armor in the world. Quad-Armor protects full wrap around thigh and knee/shin. Quad-Armor has passed and exceeded the new EN Certification and covers more of the body than any other brand. See Quad-Armor in the ARMOR Section. Quad-Armor is not recommended if you intend to do a lot of walking while wearing the Kevlar Jean. $99.00. To read more about Quad-Armor and Cycleport's crash studies click on "Must Read Articles".
• Optional Hip Armor is available. Closed cell EVA perforated foam is sewn into the upper hip area. Motoport can't use the Tri-Armor in the hip area. Anything thick or stiff will dig into the thighs when in a riding position. This hip armor is comfortable and adds significant impact protection to the upper hips. Not one rider has ever requested to remove the armor after using. Optional Hip Armor $49.00.
• Note: Motoport recommend the pant cuffs to be made with a zippered/Velcro closure. ($29.00 Option) Standard jean cuffs can ride up the leg in a tumble. If the cuffs are not secured on the boots the knee armor can also fall down when standing/ walking. This can expose the knees in a tumble.
• If a waist cut jacket is to be worn the pant can be ordered with a maximum 13" length zipper to connect with waist length Jacket - $29.00. Motoport can also put the other side of the zipper on that can be sewn into any waist cut jacket. Full waist zippers cannot be used with the jean cut style pant. It is not necessary to zip a 3/4 length jacket to any pant.
• Quick Release Suspenders recommended for riders that want the waist area loose for more comfort. The suspenders keep the pant on without having the waist area snug. Riders with a large belly are strongly recommended to use the suspenders. $69.00
• Butt pockets can be removed. (We recommend.)
• Cargo pockets can be added. $19.00 each
• Vertical hip zip pockets. (No charge when standard front jean pockets are deleted) • Sacrum Tri-Armor. $49. • Sacrum Quad-Armor. $75.
About Kevlar Why is this better? The Stretch Kevlar is 5 times stronger than leather and less than half the weight. See "Save Your Hide" to learn more about the tear and abrasion strength.
When sliding on pavement with any leather, heat is generated instantly. If no hole is worn through, in many cases, the rider will have a burn under the leather from heat generated from friction during the slide. The GP-2 Kevlar Jacket is made from a weave of three threads. Kevlar, Lycra and Dynatec. Both Kevlar and Lycra are fire retardent materials and will not transfer heat as severely as leather or any textile materials.
The Kevlar Street Jean has the highest tear strength of any other brand motorcycle pant ever made! Take your body weight and multiply that by the speed on a motorcycle. The best competition grade leather tears at 110 pounds. In many cases just after a few months of use the leather looses tear/abrasion strength and can tear/abraid at a low speed tumble! Even after ten years of use, the Kevlar Street Jean maintains it original tear/abrasion strength. No other leather suit or synthetic suit has proper seam strength. Cycleport Safety Lock Stitches all of the construction seams that will provide more than 2000lbs. of strength.
Colors
• Stretch Kevlar colors: black, gray, red, blue, and bright yellow.
• Motoport can send material swatches to show the strength and different colors available.
