Rokker Rokkertech Tapered Slim jeans in dark blue

The Rokkertech tapered slim jean has been produced by Rokker exclusively for Motolegends. It is a lighter weight jean that meets the AA level under the latest EN 17092 regulations, but impressively they recorded a slide time of 6.96 seconds when tested on a Cambridge machine at SATRA. This makes them 10% stronger than leather. The wash is what Rokker calls their ‘original’ wash, which sits somewhere in between their ‘raw’ and more aggressive ‘vintage’ wash. The fit is what is termed ‘tapered slim’. In truth, this is very similar to the standard, ‘sim’ fit. It is very marginally wider in the thigh, but very marginally narrower at the ankle. There is 30% more stretch in the fabric than there is in the standard Rokkertech. This makes the ‘ Lights’ particularly comfortable to wear, but the stretch also allows a taller, touring boot to be worn inside the jean. At our behest, the jeans come with a zip, and not a button, fly. They are also supplied with the latest, super-thin D3O Ghost armour and, for the first time ever, this is a Rokkertech that comes with adjustable, knee pockets. If you want the ultimate in protection, go for the full-fat Rokkertechs, but these are as protective as you’re ever going to need on the road. They are, in a number of other respects, nicer than the standard jean. They are also a bit cheaper!
