Frequently asked questions Hide FAQs
What is aramid fibre and how is it different from standard denim?
Aramid fibres (including DuPont™ Kevlar®) are synthetic materials with tensile strength approximately five times greater than steel by weight. In a crash slide, when the denim outer face begins to wear away, the aramid layer underneath provides continued abrasion resistance, significantly extending the protection window versus standard denim. The stretch cotton denim outer provides the aesthetic; the aramid inner provides the protection.
What changed from the Copper V2 to the V3?
The V3 introduces three updates: (1) Reshaped back waistband that sits higher at the rear, eliminating the gap between jacket and pants in the riding position — a common comfort complaint on the V2. (2) Selvedge-style stitching on the leg inseam for a higher-quality denim finish. (3) Updated stretch denim formula for greater elasticity across the knee gusset. The protection architecture — aramid reinforcements, Nucleon Flex Plus Level 1 knee armor, 3-position knee adjuster — is unchanged from V2.
Do the Copper V3 Denim Pants include hip protection?
No. The Copper V3 includes Nucleon Flex Plus Level 1 knee protectors (installed and included). The waistband area has hip protection pockets with Velcro attachment points, but hip protectors are not included as standard — they must be purchased separately. The omission is by design: the hip pocket area is slim-profile to maintain the denim aesthetic, and optional hip armor adds minimal visual impact while significantly expanding protection for riders who want it.
What does EN 17092-4:2020 mean on the certification, and is it the same as EN 17092-3?
EN 17092-4:2020 is the specific European standard for lower-body motorcycle garments (trousers, pants, jeans). EN 17092-3:2020 is the standard for upper-body garments (jackets). Both standards share the same Class A / AA / AAA protection hierarchy — Class A in EN 17092-4 (pants) offers the same level of abrasion resistance as Class A in EN 17092-3 (jackets). The Copper V3 is correctly certified to the trousers standard; the different number simply reflects the body-area specificity of the European testing regime.
