LOWSIDED GOING 25MPH!!! It protected well!
“Love love love these leggings! I'm 5'1" inseam of 27.75" and 118lbs (F) and the SM works perfect for me albeit it a little long but it's doable! My boyfriend who is 5'11" 130lbs and an inseam of 30.5" can wear these comfortably as well. They're perfect for the hot weather and don't look like riding pants even with the armor in it. It is crash tested by me going about 25mph and low sided around a turn in my neighborhood on gravel. It held up okay and the included armor protected my knee and my hip perfectly so no pain there. As you can see in the photos it ripped up by the knee where the level”

Verified buyerPricey, but fit and protection level are great!
“I struggled for a while finding AAA leg protection that both fit right and is comfortable to wear. I hesitated for months before finally ordering these, and I wish I had done so sooner. These fit is perfect, and they simply disappear under regular pants. If I want to ride somewhere in a suit, I can now do so without worrying about becoming a crayon. For reference, I normally wear Levi's 501 in size 32/30 and the Pando in large is perfect!”

Julie B
Verified buyerThe best riding pants I've gotten
“The best motorcycle pants I've had. I never usually leave reviews but leaving one for these leggings. They're perfectly comfortable, fit under and over a lot of other pants for layering, and have level AAA rating and CE level 2 hip and knee armor. The ONLY con is that I wish they had pockets, so 4 stars instead of perfect 5 stars”

Verified buyerGreat Leggings! Crash Tested.
“Great leggings. Excellent protection. Hit a deer going 60 mph and only had a little hip bruising. No road rash at all.”

“Perfect fit after "breaking" them in. No sweaty tushie and doesn't make me overheat.”

Verified buyerReally Good
“I always laugh when I see reviews about comfort when it comes to armor. It's armor. These are more comfortable than any other armored base layer I've used. However, if you are in between sizes, go with the bigger one. They don't stretch much which can make the pads press pretty hard against you.”

Verified buyerUncomfortable
“Waited for these to come back in stock, and had such high hopes. Unfortunately, they are going back. Seem well made, but the fabric has such a "plastic-y" feel that I could not imagine wearing these for more than 15 minutes. Just too uncomfortable to me.”

Perfect
“Exactly what I was expecting. very comfortable material, surprisingly breathable for a AAA garment, even the level 2 armor is hardly noticeable. I can and have EASILY worn this under regular jeans for an entire day. Word of warning to my fellow americans: check the size chart on the website and measure your HIPS, NOT YOUR WAIST. For reference, I am a 30in waist 32in inseam and the small is tight but the correct ft. If you order a size based off your waist measurement you will get a size that is too small.”
Lee M
Verified buyerOutstanding protection in a comfortable "stealth" package.
“I hope I never need to see for myself how the abrasion protection works but I'm confident that it'll do its job based on the construction and the AAA certification. And if I do experience that firsthand, Pando Moto has a lifetime "crash warranty" which makes this a buy-once product. I will say that the material has more stretch than I expected, so if you're between sizes you could choose either one based on how you would like it to fit - tight but still comfortable, or form-fitting but not snug at all. I also like the heel straps to keep the leggings where they belong and not creep up my leg.”
Lauren B
Verified buyerMeh.
“Too small. I used my correct measurements but still needed to go a size up? Weird. And the interior of the leggings are kind of scratchy. I returned them afterwards because I don't think they are worth $300. Maybe $150 at most with the padding.”
Trevor W
Verified buyerThe only riding pant I wear now
“The only riding pant I wear and replaced all the others in my closet. Form fitting, CE-2 armor in knees and hips that stays exactly where it should be, and can wear anything from fashion pants to waterproof covers without worrying about having several different sets. Extremely cool in high heat (90s) and AAA rated for the slide. Gives me confidence at any speed and let's me dress however I want for the ride. Will purchase the matching top when back in stock.”

Way over priced
“300 bones?!? Ha ha ha. Are you kidding me?? Check out Bohn body armor and save enough money to buy yourself that second set of backup summer gloves you've been henning and hawing about.”
