Rokker Rokkertech Tapered Slim jeans in black black Product Information
The Rokkertech tapered slim jeans now come in a full black rather than faded black. The jean was first produced by Rokker exclusively for Motolegends. It is a lighter weight jean than the original Rokkertechs but still meets the AA level under the latest EN 17092 regulations. Impressively they recorded a slide time of 6.96 seconds when tested on a Cambridge machine at SATRA. This makes them 50% stronger than leather.
The tapered slim fit is very similar to a standard, ‘sim’ fit but very marginally narrower at the ankle. Importantly, the stretch in the fabric makes these jeans particularly comfortable to wear. At our behest, the jeans come with a zip, and not a button, fly. They are also supplied with Level 1 D3O Ghost armour and, for the first time ever, this is a Rokkertech that comes with adjustable, knee pockets. You also get a Rokker T-shirt with the jeans.

Glen: Easily the best fitting motorcycle jeans I have found
Although its hard to make a full review on a pair of jeans youve only worn for a couple of hundred miles, I thought it worth adding my impressions of these Rokker Tapered Slims as I am so impressed with them. They genuinely fit, feel and look like a normal pair of jeans. Absolutley no comparison with my previous pair of lined bargain basement CraneAldi ones although, to be fair, they were OK for what I paid for them. I dont like tightrestrictive clothing, but these fit me like they were tailored. I take either a 32 or a 34 in normal jeans, depending on the cut, and the 33 Rokkers are absolutely spot on. As others have said, the legs are too slim at the hem to fit over large boots, but I have always favoured tucking anything other than waterproofs inside my boots anyway. Because these are so much slimmer at the calf than my old jeans they fit even more comfortably inside my AlpineStars Belize boots. Riding the 100+ miles home today in them on what has been one of the warmenst days of the year so far, they were very much more comfortable than my old pair. Not too hot, but also not too cold later in the evening once the sun had gone down. I suspect that they will be my main biking trouser going forwards. I think I am likely going to remove the armour in my old Frank Thomas waterproof textile trousers that I usually wear over a pair of normal jeans on the coldestwettest days I ride, and simply wear them over these instead. Hopefully I never find out first-hand about the actual performance of the D3O or if the slide time is as good as promised, but I certainly am impressed with the comfort and fit. Lets just hope that my good lady never finds out just how much I paid for them...
ADAM G: Quality and comfort on another level!
I have now worn my Rokkertech Tapered Slim jeans for several hundred miles. This is the second Rokker item of clothing I have and again I am hugely impressed by the quality of their products, every detail you look at just shouts quality. The jeans are superbly comfortable, they have a nice bit of stretch so you dont get the pinching behind the knee that I have experienced with other jeans. The pockets are also nicely deep too, so you feel you can put things in them with little risk of the items working their way out as your ride. The fit is spot on for me waist 38, it seems their sizing is exactly what they say it is. I was concerned that being slim they might be too slim, I have strong thighs and often cannot fit in to a slim jean but these are just a comfortable close fit, rather than skinny. I have found them comfortable in hot weather too, even though the fabric is reassuringly solid. Rokker gear is as we know more expensive than other brands, I was lucky enough to get these from Motolegends in their weekend sale, but I have to say I think they are worth the money, and I mean worth the full-price. I would over time like to get more of their gear, it really is in a league of its own and I think will last many years. Fortunately I have not tested them in an off, but there is a Motolegends editorial about a customer who had a huge slide in Rokker jeans and where the jeans really did protect the rider. It is good to know they are as good as they claim.
