Product Details
The John Doe Pioneer Mono Black Used motorcycle jeans combine a close-fitting denim cut with a single-layer Class AAA protective construction. XTM-Fiber® is woven with stretch denim twill to provide abrasion resistance without a separate protective lining, while Level 1 knee and hip protectors are supplied.
Who are these motorcycle jeans for?
The Pioneer Mono is intended for riders who prefer slim-fit motorcycle jeans with the look and movement of everyday denim. The breathable, multi-stretch construction is especially useful for commuting, urban riding and warmer conditions. Black Used is John Doe’s official colourway name for the worn-in black finish and does not describe the condition of the product.
