FAQs
What does CE Rating AAA mean?
The AAA rating is the highest level of CE certification for motorcycle clothing, signifying it has passed rigorous testing for impact and abrasion resistance.
Can I wash these trousers in a washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash leather trousers. Use specialized leather cleaning products to preserve the integrity of the material.
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, these are high-performance leather trousers designed for impact protection and abrasion resistance. They are not designed for wet weather use.
Can I replace the knee sliders?
Yes, the RST S1 trousers are equipped with replaceable knee sliders, making them suitable for track use.
Will these connect to any jacket?
They feature a 360-degree connection zip designed to pair with compatible RST jackets.
How does D3O armour work?
D3O is a non-Newtonian material that stays flexible while you are moving but molecules lock together on impact to absorb and dissipate energy.
Troubleshooting
Armour feels misaligned
Adjust the trouser waistband and ensure the knee protectors are centered correctly when seated in your riding position.
Connection zip is stiff
Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax to the zip teeth to improve movement.
Leather feels too tight
High-quality leather requires a break-in period; wear the trousers for short periods off the bike to allow the leather to soften and contour to your body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your trousers, ensure you are wearing the correct size to keep the D3O armour positioned correctly over your joints. To pair with a jacket, locate the inner zip track at the back of the waistband and align it with your RST jacket. For care, do not machine wash these trousers. Regularly wipe the exterior with a leather-specific cleaner and conditioner to prevent the hide from drying out. If you have been caught in the rain, allow the leather to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the material and stitching.
