Louis Moto’s flagship exclusive motorcycle clothing and accessories brand, Vanucci, has launched the new VUT-7 motorcycle jeans, made with T-Tex Pro® Twaron® Single Layer Technology – a special single layer material combined with denim providing an exceptional level of abrasion protection.
Vanucci’s new VUT-7 motorcycle jeans offer AAA rated protection and utilise the latest technology that allows the production of fabric with Twaron® fibres woven with denim. The result is a highly protective single layer fabric which does not need a separate Twaron® lining.
The T-Tex Pro® material provides an impressive abrasion protection level of 4.2 seconds, with the VUT-7 motorcycle jeans also complete with removable Super Shield SC-1/KB2 air protectors on the knees with infinite adjustability. Super Shield SC-1/SB2 air protectors are present on the hips, too, defending against impacts in all key fall areas.
In addition to offering high-level abrasion and impact protection, the VUT-7 motorcycle jeans provide uncompromised comfort and fit in all riding scenarios thanks to the new single layer technology delivering stretchability and breathability. Comfort also remains while off the bike, making them a versatile choice for daily commuters and casual weekend riders alike, with five outside pockets furthering practicality.
The new Vanucci VUT-7 motorcycle jeans are priced at £257.00* and are available in a 31-inch to 40-inch waist, and either a 32-inch or 34-inch length. The VUT-7 jeans are now exclusively available to purchase in the UK via the Louis Moto website: www.louis-moto.co.uk.
