My wife has been looking for Armored Motorcycle Pants for a while. What she really wanted was armored motorcycle pants made for women.
She tried several brands and did not care for them as they were too “masculine” in appearance. I don’t think that anyone can say Sherrie Leggings by MotoGirls has a manly appearance.
My wife purchased the Sherrie Leggins form Wind and Throttle which advertises the leggings as breathable and moisture wicking mesh lining, that helps let air circulate to increase ventilation so you can cool down and get rid of sweat more quickly. There are that, until you are off the bike and without the airflow to help evaporate the moisture. It can be a struggle to get them off when they are damp or wet after a rain storm.
By the way my wife was also very happy with the folks behind Wind and Throttle! She told me they were very easy to work with and were quite accommodating before and after the sale, that she will be buying more from them in the future.
As far as armor is concerned:
- CE & UKCA Certified Garment – AAA rated.
- CE-Approved Level 2 knee protection
- CE-Approved Level 2 hip protectors
- Heavy duty, stretchable and abrasion resistant
- High Impact areas reinforced with 100% genuine DuPont KEVLAR® fiber
My wife has been riding with these leggings for about six months now and really likes them a lot. She likes them enough that she is likely to get an additional set in the coming months.
