Default Re: Female motorcycle clothing - where to buy

Just make sure you wash Kevlar jeans cold. I accidentally put my Draggin Jeans through a 40 wash and they shrank a lot! These Held ones have survived 2 goes through a Thai laundry this week no problem. If you are planning the sort of days out where you spend time off the bike as well as on it then these are great.

I've got a pair of SMX4 Alpinestar boots. Again in the pic above. Not sure if they still make them but they are also comfortable to walk about in. Lots of bike boots aren't and some just don't seemed to be designed for women's curvier calves even if you are slim. If she's just pillion then there are more options available.

Triumph do some quite nice ladies jackets in more casual styles. Keep an eye on their factory outlet online store. The jacket I use in Thailand has armour and space for a back protector. Cost me about £30 in the sale.

Get in contact with Vision Motorcycle Training in St Albans. They are linked with No-limits Trackdays and a Womens motorcycle clothing store on site that will have what you are looking for. I was there last week and the majority of their inventory is for women.

Not sure if you got my other reply. But if you contact Vision Motorcycle Training in St Albans they are linked with a shop that sells/stocks mostly womens bike gear. They share the building with No Limits Trackdays
