These Troy Lee Designs Adult Undergarment Body Armor Shorts are designed to protect you when you don't want to throw on a big bulky pair of pants. These fit easily under a pair of jeans, and when wearing them, you don't feel like you've got a big diaper on either. They're constructed out of premium Lycra 4-way stretch anti-microbial material which is moisture wicking. Besides having CE-rated armor and being made out of quality materials, one of the things that works really well is the integrated crotch pad, because it's sized and designed for motorcycle seats. It doesn't feel like you're just wearing a jockstrap and a cup.

These probably aren't something that you're going to wear on a ride down the freeway, but if you've got a dirt bike that likes to get dirty every now and then, these Body Armor Shorts will help keep you from bruising up when your back wheel hits a big bump.

The cut is of the over-the-boot style (which I prefer). When the ride is over, you can simply zip off the lower pant-legs and you have a pair of shorts. That's a nice feature for cooling down after a long dirt ride. The pants offer other nice touches like a cordura nylon seat panel, double and triple needle stitching, and ballistic nylon inner leg panels for heat resistance.

So what was that about all things to all riders? Just take a look at the color and logo options. The pants come in understated, monochromatic themes for a boring guy like me. However, for you flashier types, the pants are also offered in a kind of star-studded camo motif as well as a wild paisley print. These are nice pants with a load of nice features.

Some folks like flashy gear, but you can't go wrong with black on white. The Fox 180 motocross pants are very similar to their Honda 180 gear. If you wanted those pants but are not a Honda rider, these will have everything you need with only the Fox logo on the leg.

A pre-curved race construction won't give any resistance when you're in position, and stretch panels in the back, knees, and crotch will let you move without hassle. Leather patches protect the rider from the heat and abrasion. You probably don't think a little rain should take you off the track, and neither does Fox. So they've made the 180 pants water-repellent.

I could do without the pinstripe pattern; pinstripes only look good on roaring 20's gangsters. Fortunately, the pinstripe is not pronounced, and the full design of the 180 -- with prominent double-needle stitch lines and white accents -- make up for any aesthetic drawback. If you just can't stand the stripes, the 180 comes with seven color and pattern options.

Shift is Fox's budget brand -- gear for growing families and anyone looking to save a little money, usually about half the cost of Fox's regular line-up, with some exceptions. But Shift also goes after cutting-edge designs to capture the substantial youth market in off-road clothing and protective equipment.

The Assault pant fits into the budget and youth market. It comes in six different color and pattern variations. Constructed from 600 denier polyester, it's made to withstand abrasion and has stretch panels at every human intersection to allow for flexibility and comfort. Logos on the yoke, thigh, and knee made of TPR (thermoplastic rubber) will hold up well and generally resist staining. The waist has a generously adjustable ratchet-style closure for a custom, personal fit. All the stuff you expect from an off-road pant is in place.

One notable complaint about this pant is that some say the seams tend to come apart. As this pant is limited to sizes 28-38, and they reportedly run small, the correct fit may be a factor. Try these on first, if at all possible. Otherwise, these are a good deal for something you mean to abuse.

These gloves will add the right amount of protection and style to go with your new Shift Assault pants.

Fox Racing and Honda have engineered the 180 motocross pants with stretch panels everywhere that the body needs to move. The neutral-state architecture is designed for a comfortable riding position. Since nothing can do the job like leather, they've included patches for heat and abrasion resistance, and these pants are mostly synthetic so the rider doesn't overheat. They are also both breathable and water-repellent.

Aesthetically, the 180 pants leave something to be desired. They have a strong red-on-black contrast, but the pinstripes are reminiscent of a baseball uniform. Don't let minor fashion faults dissuade you from getting a durable, well-made pair of riding pants, though. Comfort and protection should negate all superficial concerns. The Honda logo will let you proudly proclaim your allegiance to your bike, and at under $100 they're not going to leave you with buyers' remorse.

Here are some other pants by Fox Racing if you like the pinstripe look.

Moose Racing made sure to keep that in mind while designing its M1 line for kids. This particular pair of lime green racing pants is no exception.

The material itself is constructed from a lightweight nylon/poly blend with double (and sometimes triple) stitched seams, with extra reinforcement on the seat area for maximum tear prevention.

The legs are pre-curved (for less bunching on the track) and the knee area is slightly oversized to include room for the durable inner knee panels that come with the product.

There are also removable hip pads made out of comfortable, yet protective, foam. Custom waist fitting is easy with an integrated dual-waist cinch strap system. Sounds like all the cool features you have in your own racing gear, right? The kids deserve nothing less.

And they may also need some extra protection from a youth-sized chest protector, like this one from Jafrum.

The material contains both Spandex and mesh, making it easy to move around while still keeping cool all throughout your adventure.

The legs are specifically contoured and shaped for sport riding, accented with ribbed Spandex.

For extra knee safety, check out the 1680D ballistic upper knee panels. The mesh liner runs the entire length of the pant, sublimated to the inside.

The tapered leg comes streamlined with a cuffless design in an attempt to make the pant/boot connection more favorable.

It comes with a dual adjustable waistband and more sublimated Spandex panels throughout.

For style options, choose between 3 different color schemes: pink/black, baby blue/khaki, or royal blue/black. Sizes are available in standard US women's 2-14.
