The single layer "Ultra Lite Ultimate" motorcycle jeans from Resurgence Gear are made from the latest PEKEV Ultra Lite fabric. This fabric has high abrasion resistance and is thinner, lighter and more comfortable than other motorcycle jeans in the same price range.
Characteristics:
- Consists of 100% PEKEV Ultra Lite fabric (no separate layer for abrasion protection)
- Slim fit, similar to a Levis 511
- Pockets for knee protectors are sewn in. The protectors can be attached in the desired position (height).
- Includes revolutionary D3O's IP Ghost CE Level 1 protectors for knees and hips.
- YKK zipper
- Very comfortable thanks to the high stretch content
CE EN17092 rating AA
Color: Deep black
PEKEV Ultra Lite is a new addition to the revolutionary Pekev fabric range.
A single layer Pekev/cotton/elasteen combination.PEKEV Ultra Lite is made by wrapping our industry leading, highly abrasion resistant PEKEV thread in dyed cotton and elasteen. The resulting thread is then woven into fabric, creating a highly abrasion resistant cloth that is cotton to the touch and therefore feels like normal denim, while having our high strength PEKEV at the core of every single thread.PEKEV Ultra Lite is woven such that on the facing side of the fabric there is a PEKEV cored thread to every one on the rear face of the fabric, to provide the highest levels of abrasion resistance available to a light-weight single layer denim fabric and is unsurpassed among modern day protection layers.Compared to other polymers, PEKEV has the highest impact strength, is self- lubricating, has high wicking properties, has a low amount of friction and is resistant to abrasion. PEKEV is 15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel.
PEKEV Ultra Lite fabric has been internationally tested excelling in safety, durability and usability.We have combined this latest fabric technology with high street fashion to create a new standard of protection and comfort in motorcycle clothing.FeaturesCE EN 13595 Level 1 and

Durability
Unlike aramid fabric which degrades quickly PEKEV is strong against:
Ionic enzyme washing. In 90% of cases aramid fibres are treated with ionic enzymes when washing denim, so performance is affected right from the point of manufacturing. Aramids are sensitive to acids. PEKEV is unaffected.
Bleach. Chlorine bleach (sodium hypochlorite) treatment completely destroys the strength of aramid fabrics. PEKEV remains unaffected.
Ultra violet (sunlight to you and me). In strong sunlight, or a high UV environment, aramid fibres degrade and life cycle is reduced. With PEKEV there is no degredation and the fibres are unaffected.
Moisture. Aramid strength is affected by moisture and washing. PEKEV is again not affected.
Detergents. Superior chemical resistance means that the performance of PEKEV is unaffected by these.
Heat dispersion. Most aramid fabrics retain heat and do not breathe PEKEV disperses body heat and is breathable, so keeps you cool comfortable and able to focus even on long runs on sunny days.
What is Pekev?
PEKEV® is a revolutionary material and the result of 10 years of research and development by Resurgence Gear. By using the best spinning techniques, the maximum was achieved from aramid and ethylene fibers and the strongest fabric in the world was created: PEKEV® of the third generation. Constructed from the most durable polymer with the highest tenacity limit of any yarn, PEKEV® is unsurpassed among modern protective layers. Compared to other polymers, PEKEV® has the highest impact resistance and very good moisture-regulating properties. PEKEV® is 15 times more abrasion resistant than carbon steel. The third generation of the PEKEV® material achieved top results in international tests in terms of safety, durability and ease of use. The combination of this latest technology with the very good cuts of the Resurgence Jeans has set a new standard in terms of protection and comfort in motorcycle clothing.
