Description

While the jeans are superior in strength and comfort, Spectra® also repels moisture, helping the wearer to stay dry.  Spectra fibre additionally helps the rider to stay cool since it pulls heat from the body.  Because Spectra® fibre is stronger, regular wear and tear is much less of a concern.  These are hypo allergenic and won’t, therefore, cause irritation.

There are four invisible armour pockets with easy external access for removal of low-profile Knox CE Micro-Lock protectors in the hips and knees.  These are fitted as standard and come with a five year guarantee when registered.  These Shield jeans make up part of the Knox Seasonless Collection.  Simply add a waterproof trouser over the top when it rains and wear a base layer for added comfort.

The Spectra denim fabric additionally provides some heat resistance. They have been tested to EN ISO 11612:2015 and they pass all the requirements for both radiant and contact heat.

All of this is delivered with a carefully tailored tapered fit which looks perfect both on and off the bike.  Details such as leather branding on the waist, Knox branded rivets, key ring and waist button as well as YKK zips all finish these Shield jeans to the incredibly high standards that they are built on.  Four deep pockets, as well as being machine washable, add to their practicality.

The Shield jeans are available in indigo blue with a choice of a regular leg length of 33” or a short 30” leg. Sizes are from a S – 3XL.

Knox Mens Size Guide - Upperbody

  • Waist: To work out your size, measure your waist in the position your trousers usually sit. As a guide this is roughly 2 inches (Approx 5-6cm) below your belly button. Once you have this measure, minus 2 inches (Approx 5-6cm) from it to get your trouser size.
  • Inside Leg: Measure from the top of your inside leg down to your ankle. You should do this whilst standing to get a more accurate measure. We have 2 leg lengths for men, 33″ (Regular) and 30″ (Short Leg).
  • Please note: The measurements given are body measures and we recommend you do not measure over the clothing. Also please hold the tape measure firmly and not loosely as the measurement needs to be fitted.
