Product Details
The Oxford Original Approved AA Men's Cargo Motorcycle Trousers in Black combine military-inspired workwear styling with the protection required for riding. Their single-layer ArmourliteĀ® twill blends cotton with abrasion-resistant polyamide and stretch, giving a softer everyday feel without a bulky secondary lining. This listing is specifically for the Black colourway.
They suit commuters, urban riders and anyone who wants practical motorcycle trousers that do not look overly technical off the bike. A tapered cut, stretch in the fabric and a pleat at each knee help keep the fit contemporary while allowing useful movement in the riding position.
Protection and key benefits
- CE AA certified motorcycle trousers
- CE Level 2 knee protectors and CE Level 1 hip protectors included as standard
- Reinforced impact-abrasion zones
- Internal overlock stitching at critical seams for improved seam strength
- Single-layer ArmourliteĀ® twill construction for a lighter, less bulky feel
- Naturally breathable, moisture-wicking outer fabric
- Rainseal durable water-repellent finish helps water bead and disperse from the outer shell
- Jersey protector pockets for comfort against the skin
Please note: the Rainseal finish is water repellent, but these are not described by Oxford as fully waterproof motorcycle trousers.
Construction, fit and storage
Oxford's Original Approved Cargo trousers stay true to their military workwear roots. The ArmourliteĀ® twill is interwoven with cotton for a soft hand feel, while stretch characteristics and knee expansion pleats support freedom of movement. Large box pockets at the upper leg expand when filled and sit flatter when empty. Webbing tabs make the pocket flaps easier to find and open while wearing gloves.

- Protector pockets: 100% nylon
- Tapered fit
- Rivet-reinforced side pockets and twin-needle reinforced side seams
- Bar-tack reinforced belt loops
- YKK fly zip
- Press-stud closures on cargo and rear pocket flaps
- Two expandable cargo pockets, two front pockets, one coin pocket and two rear welt pockets

Oxford size and fit guide
Choose the number that matches your usual waist measurement in inches. Waist sizes 30 to 42 are listed, with Short and Regular leg options depending on the selected waist size and current availability. Short is a 30-inch leg and Regular is a 32-inch leg. The tapered cut is designed to provide a neater silhouette than a straight-leg cargo trouser, so allow for the clothing you normally wear underneath and make sure the knee armour sits centrally over the kneecap when seated on the bike.
For help checking waist fit, leg length and armour position, visit Moto Central for an in-store fitting. Variant availability is shown in the size selector on this page.

Product questions
Are these Oxford cargo trousers waterproof?
No. Oxford applies a Rainseal DWR finish that encourages water to bead and disperse, but the trousers do not have a waterproof membrane and should not be treated as fully waterproof riding gear.
Is the knee and hip armour included?
Yes. Oxford supplies CE Level 2 knee protectors and CE Level 1 hip protectors as standard.
Are these lined motorcycle trousers?
They use a single-layer ArmourliteĀ® construction rather than a separate full abrasion lining. Jersey protector pockets are used for comfort around the armour.
Is this a men's or unisex fit?
Oxford describes this model as a men's tapered-fit cargo trouser. Use the waist and leg options on this listing rather than a generic S to 5XL clothing conversion.
