Why do I need MX Pants? MX pants offer significant advantages in terms of safety, performance, and comfort for anyone taking to the dirt in a ‘more than casual’ way!
Here’s what you should be looking for when you’re next in the market for a pair:
- Material: Motocross pants are typically constructed from high-denier nylon or polyester for durability. Look for at least 600-denier material, and consider leather panels on the knees for added abrasion resistance.
- Fit: Motocross pants should fit snugly but allow for a full range of motion. They should also be comfortable to wear with knee pads and other protective gear. Be sure to make a note of the sizing of pants you currently have, factor in any base layers you might wear underneath and, if possible, try on the new pants before you buy them.
- Comfort: You’ll be spending a lot of time in your motocross pants, so it’s important that they’re comfortable. Look for features like breathable mesh panels and moisture-wicking materials to help you stay cool and dry.
- Safety: Motocross pants offering varying levels of protection. Look for pants with built-in hip pads.
- Ventilation: Motocross can be a hot and sweaty activity, so it’s important to choose pants that offer good ventilation. Look for pants with mesh panels in key areas, such as the knees and thighs.
- Brand reputation:ย There are a number of reputable motocross brands on the market, such as Alpinestars, Fox Racing, Leatt, and Thor. Do some research to find a brand that offers high-quality products at a price point that fits your budget.
- Style: Motocross pants come in a huge variety of styles and colours. Choose a pair that you like the look of and that will help you feel confident on the track.
- Heat Resistance: Features like leather on the inner knee can offer heat protection from the bike’s engine.
- Weight: Lightweight designs are preferable for not being burdensome during long rides.
- Durability: Reinforced stitching and high-denier fabric construction can greatly extend the life of the pants.
