Richa Colorado
£139.99 | Available: www.nevis.uk.com
Another item constructed from high-density 600D Cordura, the Richa Colorado comes in sizes from the weeny small to a whopping 12XL!
It’s worth pointing out that from 4XL upwards the price increases to £159.99. The Colorado features ‘contra-glide’ technology, which is a posh way of saying your arse won’t slip around on the seat too much, while the D3O knee armour can be adjusted for position.

Speaking of adjustment, Velcro is used for changes to waist circumference if you’ve had too much for lunch, the thermal liner comes out should you wish, leaving behind its WP/breathable brother as it’s fixed in place. It also has two pockets, plenty of reflective strips and soft-foam hip protectors. Take a closer look at the Richa Colorado here.
Furygan Duke TRS
£199.99 | Available: www.nevis.uk.com
A mere penny short of our fiscal limit arrives this, the Furygan Duke TRS (for trousers – see what they did there?).
The Duke also uses D3O protection in the knee area, plus soft padding at the hips. Main construction is by way of a high-tenacity polyester, including something called a ‘Furygan Skin Protect Lining’ which apparently reinforces tearing and abrasion resistance, which is nice!
All three of your round(ish) areas can be adjusted as loose or tightly as you like, while stretch panels on the knees mean you won’t get too much of that annoying trouser lift when your leg is bent.
A padded lining keeps you warm in winter and can be removed (and most likely lost, somewhere, as usual…) when summer demands a cooler ride, while another insert does the now de rigueur WP/breathable routine, and the rest of the lining is made from 80% hypoallergenic cotton.
Available in sizes extra small to 4XL, it’s at the top of our price point, but there’s a hell of a lot of trouser here for your money.
Bering Dusty
£164.99 | Available: www.bikerheadz.co.uk
These Bering offerings are made from 600D Fibretech, and has an adjustable leg length as well as the usual looser/tighter systems where you want them, including some natty ankle zips, too.
The trousers sport an ultra-light thermo-alu removable lining for warmth factor (along with a fixed, laminated liner), and the expected zip connectors to link with other Bering upper-half garments. A waterproof membrane is evident and it comes with braces which should aid you in your quest to achieve that typical Germanic biker look, if that’s your thing!
There are CE-approved armour modules in both the knee and hip areas, as well as reflectors so you look bright and snazzy, and is available in sizes small to 4XL. The Dusty is well worth the look, check it out in more detail here.
