FAQs

Are these pants suitable for all weather conditions?

The Dainese Drake 2 Super Air pants are primarily designed for warm to hot weather due to their extensive mesh inserts for maximum ventilation. They are not recommended for cold or wet conditions without appropriate layering.

What type of protection do these pants offer?

They come equipped with adjustable and removable composite protectors on the knees. They also have a predisposition for Dainese Pro-Shape 2.0 soft protectors on the hips, which must be purchased separately.

How do I clean the pants?

Remove all protectors. Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Air dry away from direct heat and sunlight.

Can I connect these pants to any motorcycle jacket?

These pants feature a jacket-pants fastening system designed to connect with compatible Dainese jackets. Check your jacket's specifications for compatibility.

What is the main advantage of the Super Air design?

The Super Air design emphasizes maximum airflow and ventilation through the use of mesh fabric inserts and QuickDry materials, making them exceptionally comfortable in high temperatures.

Do the pants come with hip protectors?

No, the pants come with knee protectors. The hip protection requires the separate purchase of Dainese Pro-Shape 2.0 soft protectors.

What size should I order?

Please refer to the Dainese sizing chart for accurate measurements. The provided size information (e.g., UK 50 waist) corresponds to specific measurements, and comparing these to your own is recommended for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel too loose or too tight at the waist.

Adjust the waist adjustment strap to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.

Knee protectors shift during riding.

Ensure the knee protectors are correctly positioned and secured within their pockets. Adjust the height of the protectors if possible via the internal pocket system.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Lubricate the zipper track with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

Pants feel too warm for riding.

These pants are designed for high temperatures. For cooler weather, consider layering or using a different pair of pants.
