Hypermesh Elite Motorcycle Pants

Awesome piece of gear

Threw the hypermesh pants straight into the deep end: an hour on bitumen, six hours in bush, sand and gravel, then an hour back home. I was happy with the fit immediately thanks to help with sizing from the Akin team. I'm 183cm, the wrong type of 93kg and the size M is a nice and slightly snug fit with plenty of stretch and when I'm moving around on and off the bike, plus a great in the boot fit for the lower leg. It was a single digits morning and these obviously aren't winter pants, but I threw some merino thermals under them and while it was still a chilly ride out I stayed nice and cool once the day warmed up, even with the thermals still on. They really are one giant vent, I can't wait to wear them in warmer weather. I kept my phone in my jacket so didn't actually use the pockets, but they were easy to operate with gloved hands and would fit most phones, wallets or similar easily. I didn't run any armour in them but appreciate the fact they can take armour and knee guards if wanted. I'm glad I didn't have to test the abrasion rating but it's reassuring for me(and my wife) that I can wear some off-road pants on a ride that keep me cool, let me move, and can take a slide if needed. My only criticisms are you need to do another production run so I can buy another pair and there needs to be a matching Hypermesh jacket to go with them!

These pants are absolutely amazing. Feels like you're not wearing pants. On a cool morning, you might just freeze wearing these things. 10/10. Get a pair.

Awesome pants, well constructed, smart features, the description of them being like a giant vent is bang on - great for hot days and riding around urban areas with limited windflow! My only constructive criticism is the zip tabs for the pickets arent double sided (as in its smooth leather with the Akin branding, and then looks unfinished on the other) but other than that, great product!
