Moto Central's Bowtex collection is a small remaining range built around the Standard aramid base-layer leggings in black and yellow, plus a pair of flexible SAS-TEC Tripleflex Level 2 hip protectors. These are older Bowtex products, so use the live product page to confirm the size and availability still offered.
What is in the Bowtex range?
Standard aramid leggings
The Moto Central product specification lists a base fabric of 55% DuPont aramid fibre, 25% Protex-M and 20% cotton, with 100% DuPont aramid patches in higher-risk areas. The black and yellow products are colour alternatives rather than different protection classes.
Level 2 hip protectors
The separate SAS-TEC Tripleflex pair is intended to add hip impact protection where the garment has compatible protector pockets. Check pocket dimensions and product compatibility before ordering instead of assuming the inserts fit every pair of trousers or leggings.
Armour is not included with the Standard leggings
The leggings have pockets for compatible knee and hip protectors, but the Moto Central product listings state that armour is sold separately. The Level 2 hip protectors in this collection are supplied as a pair and should not be confused with knee armour.
How to choose and wear protective base layers
Protective leggings should fit close enough to keep any fitted armour correctly positioned without restricting circulation or movement. Try the complete combination with your chosen outer trousers, riding socks and boots. Check the waistband in a seated riding position and make sure the outer layer does not pull the protectors away from the intended impact areas.
These Standard leggings use protective fabric and reinforcement zones, but the exact certification and supplied components must be confirmed from the individual listing. Do not apply the specifications of Bowtex's current Elite or Optimal ranges to these older Standard products.
Buy Bowtex at Moto Central
This focused collection makes it easy to compare the two remaining Standard legging colourways and add compatible hip protection where required. Moto Central's product pages identify the live variant and whether armour is included, helping avoid confusion between a protective garment and a separate protector insert.
Customer questions
Can I wear Bowtex leggings on their own?
They are sold as protective base-layer leggings intended to be worn beneath suitable outer trousers. Follow the product instructions and choose an outer layer appropriate for the conditions.
Do the leggings include knee and hip armour?
No. The Standard legging listings state that the protector pockets are built in but the armour is not included.
Will the Level 2 hip protectors fit other clothing?
Only use them with suitably sized and positioned hip-protector pockets. Compare compatibility and dimensions rather than relying on the protection level alone.
Are these the current Bowtex Elite leggings?
No. This collection contains older Standard aramid leggings. Current Elite and Optimal specifications should not be assumed to apply.
