Product Information
Full details
The RST S1 Mesh D3O Motorcycle Trousers are designed for riders who demand a balance of high-level abrasion resistance, impact protection, and superior airflow for warm-weather riding. Combining robust full-grain leather in critical impact zones with breathable K300 mesh panels, these trousers offer CE AA-rated protection for road use and occasional track days, though they may not be suitable for cold or wet weather conditions due to their high ventilation design.

FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, the S1 Mesh D3O trousers are designed for ventilation and airflow and do not offer waterproof capabilities.
What does CE AA certification mean?
CE AA certification confirms that the garment has been tested for high levels of abrasion, tear, and seam strength suitable for motorcycle riding.
Can I use these for track days?
Yes, they feature replaceable knee sliders and high-abrasion leather zones, making them suitable for occasional track use.
Is the D3O armour removable?
Yes, the CE Level 1 D3O armour at the hips and knees can be removed for cleaning or upgrading.
Will these fit a different brand of jacket?
While the connection zip is designed for RST jackets, it may not be compatible with other brands without an adapter.
Troubleshooting
Armour feels out of place
Adjust the positioning of the knee pads within the internal pockets while standing or sitting in your riding position to ensure optimal coverage.
Connection zip does not align with current jacket
Ensure your jacket is an RST model with the matching 360-degree zip configuration; if not, you may need an adapter zip.
Knee sliders are wearing down
The knee sliders are designed to be sacrificial components; replace them with new compatible RST sliders when they reach the wear indicator.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Excellent ventilation for summer riding

- Flexible and comfortable D3O armour
- Integrated connection zip for jacket compatibility
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum safety, confirm that the D3O knee armour sits correctly over your kneecaps while in a riding position. The trousers feature a 360-degree connection zip, which is highly recommended for use with an RST leather or textile jacket to prevent the trousers from riding up during a slide. When cleaning, avoid using harsh detergents on the leather; wipe down the leather sections with a professional leather cleaner and use a damp cloth for the mesh areas. Always check the stitching and sliders before every track use to ensure no components are damaged.
