The straight cut is relaxed and familiar, the D3O Level 1 Ghost armour at the knees and hips is fitted as standard, and the mesh liner keeps air moving on warmer days. The wash blue finish is the version for riders who want their riding jeans to look indistinguishable from everyday denim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the wash blue colourway matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black motorcycle jeans are the default choice for riders who want protective gear that doesn't look like protective gear - but black denim has its own visual signature that experienced eyes can identify. A washed blue jean is the more convincing everyday denim look - it reads as a regular pair of jeans to anyone who sees it, on or off the bike. For riders who commute, who stop in town, or who want to wear their riding gear throughout the day without the visual cues of motorcycle apparel, the wash blue is the more versatile colourway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAA rated - what it means:\u003c\/strong\u003e The AA rating is the second-highest abrasion resistance rating under the CE EN 17092 motorcycle clothing standard. An AA rated jean has been tested to withstand significantly more abrasion than an A rated alternative - the difference matters most in a slide, where the time the fabric holds before failing determines the severity of road rash. For everyday riding jeans, AA is the rating that serious riders look for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAramid fibre construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aramid fibres - the same family of materials as Kevlar - provide the abrasion resistance that gives the Torque Prime its AA rating. The single-layer construction keeps the jean looking and feeling like a regular pair of trousers while the Aramid does the protective work invisibly within the fabric. Unlike denim, which tears quickly in a slide, Aramid fibre is engineered to resist abrasion and maintain its integrity under the friction of a road surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eD3O Level 1 Ghost armour - fitted as standard:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3O Ghost armour at both knees and hips - included, not optional\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevel 1 CE certified impact protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3O Ghost is one of the thinnest and most flexible armour options available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft and pliable at normal temperatures, stiffens on impact to absorb and distribute force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSits close to the body without the bulk of traditional hard armour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMesh liner for all-season comfort:\u003c\/strong\u003e The internal mesh liner adds comfort against the skin while allowing air to circulate through the jean on warmer days. For a single-layer Aramid jean, the mesh liner is the detail that makes the difference between a jean that's comfortable on a warm summer ride and one that becomes uncomfortable within the first hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn and off the bike:\u003c\/strong\u003e The straight cut, classic wash blue appearance, and absence of external motorcycle branding mean the Torque Prime works as everyday trousers as well as riding jeans. For riders who commute or who want to wear their riding gear throughout the day without changing, the wash blue Torque Prime is the most convincing everyday option in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafety rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e AA (CE EN 17092)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-layer Aramid fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArmour:\u003c\/strong\u003e D3O Level 1 Ghost - knees and hips (fitted as standard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classic straight cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wash Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Richa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Richa Torque Prime in Wash Blue is the AA rated riding jean for riders who want genuine protection and D3O armour as standard, in the colourway that looks most like everyday denim on and off the bike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richa","offers":[{"title":"34","offer_id":58298570146176,"sku":"RI-082TORQPRWB-34","price":139.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"36","offer_id":58298570178944,"sku":"RI-082TORQPRWB-36","price":139.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"38","offer_id":58298570211712,"sku":"RI-082TORQPRWB-38","price":139.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"40","offer_id":58298570244480,"sku":"RI-082TORQPRWB-40","price":139.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0538\/1124\/9327\/files\/TORQUEWASH1.jpg?v=1781883393","url":"https:\/\/www.maidstonehd.co.uk\/products\/richa-torque-prime-motorcycle-jeans-wash-blue-aa-rated-aramid-d3o","provider":"Maidstone Harley-Davidson","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
