The heritage of gold-diggers - The blue wonder


The iXS Classic AR #jeans 1L Straight not only look like genuine #jeans, they also feel like them! And despite this, they are still ideally suited to motorbike rides. How is this possible? The #jeans have a true denim feel both on the inside and outside because they are made of only a single layer of fabric. However, this layer is so strong that the #jeans are as abrasion-resistant as leather trousers. This feature is achieved owing to the sophisticated combination of cotton, an elasticated thread and a highly abrasion-resistant polyarylate fibre.

The material called denim, also known as #jeans, was already developed for robust, resilient and stable work trousers 150 years ago. The tear-resistant, robust #jeans were particularly popular with gold-diggers. The cotton material from Nîmes in France was dyed dark blue and the seams were sewn in orange thread as a #fashion gimmick. The trouser pockets were reinforced with additional rivets. 

What was strong enough for people searching for gold, is too weak for motorbike riders. The tear- and abrasion resistance of normal #fashion #jeans offer too little protection on a motorbike. Up to now assistance was provided by incorporating an additional layer inside the cotton fabric in the form of a lining reinforced with aramid. The disadvantage: the #jeans become thicker and stiffer as a result – comfort therefore suffers, particularly for everyday use. 

iXS took on the challenge and has developed a pair of #jeans which satisfy the safety requirements of motorbike riders and yet consist of “only” one layer. This was possible because the denim fabric was woven with highly abrasion-resistant fibres made of polyarylate. The Classic AR #jeans 1L Straight were born. Combined with the stretch fibres also incorporated directly into the fabric, the #jeans are extremely comfortable and provide full freedom of movement. There is therefore no longer any discernible difference to a normal pair of everyday #jeans. 

This represents genuine added value for everyday use because the iXS Classic AR #jeans 1L Straight are more than pure motorbike #jeans. Just as well-suited to everyday work, a barbecue, a stroll around town or whatever else you want to do when you are off your motorbike. Blue #jeans look & feel every day, full of protection on your motorbike. The removable knee and hip protectors, which are CE certified to Level 1, provide additional impact absorption. The #jeans are type approved in accordance with EN 17092-3:2020 (AA). 

The traditional five pocket #jeans make a great impression with their straight cut and the dyed-blue stone-washed look. While the era of gold-digging was still dominated by men, there is now also lots of girl power around, which is why the iXS Classic AR #jeans 1L Straight are available in both a men’s and ladies’ version with an appropriate cut. Safety on your motorbike. Style and comfort in your everyday life.
