After a brief absence from the market while changing to a new factory in Portugal that can better handle the unique requirements of manufacturing a garment from Dyneema, “the world’s strongest fiber,” the Bowtex Elite leggings are once again hitting our shelves. By March 24 we expect to be fully restocked - please enter your email to get notified when we get restocked in your size.
While the previous version of these Elite Leggings (Elite V1) were extremely stretchy, which sometimes made sizing difficult, the new V2 version has less stretch, and fits true to size.
Besides a slightly different fit, all the other benefits of the Bowtex Dyneema AAA rated leggings remain. Namely: these superhero underpants will keep the skin on your ass in the event of a get-off; even at relatively high-speed. Plus, they come with CE Level 2 Armor fitted at the hips and knees.
And rather than the old-school Kevlar way of doing things (which is actually a nice feature in the cooler months), Dyneema has a certain “cool” quality to it that feels cold against the skin, plus it vents air quite nicely. Note that the white material shown in some of the photos is the *inside* of the garment.
There have been a few other minor revisions. First off, the V2 Elite Leggings now have a drawstring waistband, for better fine-tuning the fit. The pattern has changed ever so slightly, and the flatlock seams have been updated with what Bowtex says it its strongest seam ever – rated at 12.9N/mm (for you engineering nerds out there).
While they can be worn on their own, we think these leggings are best understood as a super-charged underlayer, instantly transforming any manner of casual pants into bona fide motorcycle gear. Torn fashion jeans, linen pants, your favorite pajamas—anything.
