Product Information
Full details
The RST X D3O T5 Evo X Knee Protector is designed for motorcycle riders who prioritize safety without sacrificing comfort or mobility. By utilizing non-Newtonian polymer technology, this protector remains flexible during standard movement but instantly hardens to absorb energy during an impact. While it offers excellent CE Level 1 protection, riders should note that it is intended for use inside compatible garments rather than as a standalone external strap-on knee guard.

FAQs
Are these protectors CE certified?
Yes, they are CE Level 1 certified according to EN 1621-1 European standards.
Can I use these in non-RST brand trousers?
While designed for RST garments, they can be used in other trousers provided the armor pockets are large enough to accommodate the shape and dimensions of the pad.
Do I need to replace them after an impact?
If the protector has been involved in a significant impact, it should be thoroughly inspected for damage; if the material shows signs of deformation or tearing, it must be replaced.
Does temperature affect the flexibility?
The D3O material is formulated to retain its protective and flexible properties across a wide temperature range, though it may feel slightly firmer in extreme cold.
How do I know which side faces my knee?
The ergonomic, contoured side should face inward toward your body to match the shape of your knee.
Troubleshooting
Protector shifts inside the trouser pocket
Adjust the Velcro or pocket flap closure to ensure the pad is held firmly in place and centered over the knee joint.
Protector feels uncomfortable or digs into the skin
Verify that you have inserted the pad with the contoured side facing inward toward your leg and ensure the trouser is properly aligned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these protectors, locate the internal armor pockets within your RST riding trousers. Insert the pad with the smooth side facing toward your knee and the textured or branded side facing outward. Ensure the protector is centered within the pocket to ensure maximum coverage over the patella.
For care, remove the protectors before machine washing your riding trousers. The pads should be cleaned by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could degrade the polymer. Always allow the protectors to air dry completely away from direct heat sources or prolonged exposure to high-intensity sunlight.
