Be Comfortable in Your Motorcycle Pants

It is a basic requirement of all protective clothing is that it should provide a degree of protection without interfering with the rider's ability to ride safely.

Riding is an athletic pursuit, so clothing must move freely with your body. The weight, flexibility, temperature control and fit of clothing can all contribute to making your more or less comfortable. Keep this in mind when you are choosing gear.

All protective clothing should fit without constriction. If there are marks on your skin when you remove an item, then it may be too tight. If it is too tight it may constrict blood flow causing numbness. This is particularly important for the feet, wrists and hands.

Even with the best gear, riding places a strain on the body that must be managed to maintain alertness.
Sitting in the same position with limited movement for extended periods of time is unnatural and can lead to muscle stiffness resulting in discomfort, fatigue and loss of concentration.
