Roadskin® Taranis Elite motorcycle jeans for men, in black, achieve the highest possible protection rating - AAA – in one cool and comfortable layer

Roadskin’s Taranis Elite motorcycle jeans in black are our latest motorcycle jeans and the first to provide the AAA safety rating in a single layer, as tested by . This is achieved by weaving the protective Kevlar fibres into premium denim, so they feel and look exactly like a regular five-pocket pair of jeans but give you the peace of mind that comes with wearing AAAs. The Taranis also contains a good amount of elastane for stretch, ensuring you’ll be as comfortable on the bike as off it. Soft to the touch, they look great and will keep you safe.

Please watch our sizing video at the bottom of this page to ensure you order the correct waist size, especially if you are ordering from the USA/CAN as sizing criteria differs slightly. The required inside leg length is measured at the point where the jeans meet the crotch, down to the ankle seam. 

Taranis Motorcycle Jeans Features:

Our motorcycle jeans are designed with safety and comfort in mind. They are lined with a special mesh material that serves a dual purpose. Firstly, the mesh allows for proper ventilation, so you can stay cool even on hot summer days. Secondly, and more importantly, in the event of an accident, the mesh provides an added layer of protection to prevent your skin from tearing upon initial impact. This feature can greatly reduce the severity of injuries in a motorcycle accident. So you can ride with peace of mind knowing that you're not only comfortable but also protected.

Cut with a straight leg in black denim, the stylish and lightweight triple-stitched Taranis Elite motorcycle jeans will take you anywhere you want to go – they’re tough enough for the road, stylish enough for work and great for the pub. They are especially suitable for touring in all climates except the coldest (for cold weather, we recommend our ).
