Dainese New Drake Air Textile Pants

Drake pants will surely interest anyone who loves to ride his or her bike especially in the warmer months without wearing a suit or leather pants in order to obtain the protection required. These previously contrasting needs have now been perfectly reconciled by Drake fabric pants. Ample air vents in fretted fabric with closing on the thighs permit fresh air to enter during riding for cooling relief on even the hottest days. When temperatures begin to drop, the air vents can be closed. Safety is guaranteed by removable composite protections in the knee and shins, while extra-strength Cordura 750 fabric offers protection in case of fall. The elastic inserts in the knee optimise the wearability of the article, which is equally suited to metropolitan motorcycle use.

Features

  • Removable composite protectors.
  • Cordura fabric 750.
  • Suretta fabric.
  • Perforated fabric.
  • Insert in elasticated fabric.
  • Soft inserts.
  • Calf zip.
  • Jacket-trousers fastening system.
  • Adjustable waist.
  • Sanityzed lining.

Knee protection slides around The knee and shin protection on these pants do not seem to stay in place while riding. Not sure if the shin protector should go over or under my boots. Knee ventilation is easy to use and effective. May 13, 2013
Good product I'm 5' 11', 200lbs, and usually wear a size 34 waist. I ordered a size 54 (as opposed to the recommended 52 from Dainese's size chart) because I wanted to be able to wear my work clothes (business casual, suit pants and vest, no jacket) underneath. While they are still hot in a Texas spring (think 90+ degrees, baking hot sun, 80+ % humidity), they are FAR more comfortable than my leathers. As a comparison, after a couple of hours in my size 56 Dainese Avro one-piece racing leathers, even when wearing a heat-wicking under layer, I'll be pretty much drenched. In these pants (along with a Super Speed textile jacket) I'll still be warm, but I won't be drenched. There's adequate air flow at speed, but as with anything you wear once you're stopped at a light it'll get hotter than Hades sooner rather than later. I have not tested the protection level (and I hope I won't have to), but they feel very similar to the Halvarsson's textiles I was wearing when I got sideswiped at 20mph and took a spill onto the tarmac without lasting damage at all. All in all, I'm very happy with these pants. I wish there was some way to adjust the location of the knee pads, as they are just an inch or so too low for me. Bottom line: Pros: Well ventilated Comfortable fit Matches the Super Speed jacket well Cons: Lack of adjustability Would easily buy again. May 8, 2013
First time owner of textile pants I bought these pants for summer use. I wanted more protection than just wearing jeans. So far I have only ridden in 70 degree weather and I am finding them to be quite warm. I don't think they would be good for weather over 80 degrees but they are better protection than jeans. The padding and armor are all in the right high impact areas. I had to drop two sizes but then they fit great. From 34 down to 28 and these fit perfectly. Nice adjustable waist. May 6, 2013
Great for spirited riding, around town, and commuting I got these pants to provide bottom protection to my Portland 2 jacket. They offer much more protection than jeans and are comfortable enough to put on every time I go for a ride. They are not meant for overpants, but I have found that I can wear them over regular fit jeans and easily over dress pants.The reason for saying they run slightly small is due to pressure on the back of the knees when riding, I do not have any pain or problem but it is noticeable for the first few min of the ride. I have not gone down in them yet, so I can not talk to crash protection. They are comfortable for a wide range of temps ranging from 55-95 F. They will not blend in when about in town, but they do not scream "Biker Pants" either. May 5, 2013
Great pants! I ride with these pants in one week tours and they are very confortable, the ventilation is good but they are not waterproof. i recommend these pants. April 30, 2013
Great to walk around and not feel awkward I've had the Alien leathers for about 2 weeks and while I love them, I can't see myself walking around my neighborhood to pick up my bike in them haha. So, now that the weather is coming along and I do not want a skin graph in case of a slide, I picked these bad boys up. I test drove them today on the west side hwy about 3hrs, and felt relieved in having some wind flow into my knees with the zips open. The knee/tibia protection feels substantial along with the hip padding. I do believe these will hold up just fine in case of a fall. As for walking around, they have the same type of feel as the Adidas clima-cool mesh sweats. Walking home from the garage made me feel a bit sticky, but nothing unbearable. All in all, they fit great, feel great and are seriously comfortable. Just wish they were more in the 180-200 range, but this is Dainese guys, nothing comes cheap from them including quality! April 16, 2013
Very uncomfortable When I received these pants I had originally ordered a size 46, I wear a 32 jean and require a belt to not "sag". The pants fit, but were very tight in the legs. I'm 6'1" and 160lbs, so it was not an issue of having over-weight or muscular legs. I actually have rather skinny legs. So, I exchanged them for a 48 and put them on, walked around, and sat on the bike before removing the tags. Everything felt great, with the exception of the shin armor getting stuck on top of my smx-plus boots (maybe they're supposed to go outside the boots?) I took them out for the first time this weekend and at first they were wonderful. Flowed tons of air to all the right places. About 100 miles in I started to notice extreme bunching behind my knees that was causing undesirable pressure and pain. Luckily the ride was cut short and only lasted another 50 miles. The bunching was a constant bother, and the area behind my knees was sore/red for approximately 24 hours after I got home from the ride. I LOVE Dainese products, but this has been a poor experience. They were ordered with the super speed textile jacket. I am considering attempting a defect return for a size 50, but am afraid that the waist circumference will be too large. The 48's are sinched down as far as possible with the velcro hip adjusters. They fit just fine this way but the 50's will be too loose when sinched all the way down like this. The problem is due to the very skinny legs and the tough/protective outer material. Dainese should have put a thinner material behind the knee as it is not an impact area (like they do in more expensive pieces). They look absolutely stunning, with a cut similar to a nice pair of dress slacks. But the material is not conducive to the fashionable cut. On a side note, they also could have used better hip protection. April 15, 2013
Nice slimmer fit I hate when reviewers don't add their measurements, so here are mine: 5'11" - 182 pounds - 34 x 32 jean size - Purchased Size 52. The 52 is a great fit for me in the waist. I use the velcro waist cinch a bit, but definitely nowhere near as tight (or small) as it could go. As far as the length, it's a perfect length when walking around but a tad short when seated on the bike. I use mid-height riding boots. As far as styling, these are the best textile pants I could find. It seems that every other textile pant I tried on were baggy and resembled snowboard pants. Not these. They have a nice slimmer fit, but not super skinny. Before pulling the trigger on these I was actually considering women's pants to get a slimmer fit. Airflow is not as good as I expected, even with the vent flaps open, but I'm still happy overall. The knee/armor is much more substantial than other textile and overpants I tried on. Plus with the slimmer fit it the armor does not shift around. Hope this helps. April 4, 2013

So I am 6'2" and 190lbs with a 38" hip, 35" waist, and a 33" Inseam. My hips put me at size 48, my waist puts me at a 50, and my inseam puts me around 52. So the question is... which measurement is the most important one to order by. I am already assuming that I will have to do a free exchange but was hoping to get it right the first time.

Thanks much.

Answer: 
Whoa, momma! You can't be getting all risqué up and down the highway. Besides being just plain crude, showing some leg isn't the best thing when you start sliding on the asphalt. Dainese makes some stylish gear - Steve Urkel wouldn't be caught dead in the New Drakes. They don't ride up very high (higher than normal jeans, but nothing like Urkel).

What's more is that these New Drakes have a slim, Euro cut - great for guys on the tall side of the spectrum. It's still a good idea to get your inseam measurement and compare that to our size chart though, just to be sure.

Oh, and not to be a stickler, but Steve Urkel is from Family Matters, not the Fresh Prince of Bel Air (that's Will Smith). Normally I wouldn't bring it up, but I'm a big Fresh Prince fan. So much of a fan, actually, that I wrote this short history of RevZilla to the rhyme and meter of the Fresh Prince song:

---

Now this is the story all about how

the Z-L-A army turned things upside down

and I'd like to take a minute - just sit right there,

I'll tell you how we became one badass shop in moto retail.

---

In Old City Philadelphia born and raised,

A can of spray-paint was the first thing that paid,

chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool,

all above the retail shop outside of the school.

When a couple of guys, they were up to somethin' good,

started makin' trouble in the moto 'hood.

They got in one little fight and B. Van declared:

"Z-L-A is way cooler than Sportbike Track Gear"

--

They whistled for a cab and when it came near

license plate said "ZLA Army" and had bikes in the mirror

If anything I could say that this cab was rare--

but they thought "nah, forget it - let's blaze us a trail!"

--

They pulled up to the shop around 2013

and yelled to the cabby "Yo Van, smell you later."

Looked at the new space, they were finally there--

Sittin' on the thrones as the kings of retail.

Answer: 
Hmmm....these pants are textile pants only. Think of them as a high quality textile version of racing leathers intended for summer/fall. They have a knee vent that, while it can be closed, is clearly not intended to be waterproof. The textile is pretty tightly woven and will shield you from more rain/wind than mesh, but that's about it.

Answer: 
Different manufacturers typically use different connection zippers. Dainese pants will only zip to Dainese jackets and vise versa. If you already have a Joe Rocket jacket, then your best bet would be to stick with Joe Rocket pants that have the same 8" connection zipper like the Phoenix 3.0 pants.

Answer: 
Probably not. The Dainese zipper is different than all of the others I have tried. Also, they don't include an extra "mating" zipper like A*. I have been to the D-Store in San Francisco and they dont have extra zippers for sale to mate up non-Dainese pants and jackets.

Being stand alones, I gather these pants are fairly form fitting... I'm just wondering what hip and tailbone padding would fit them? Are there pockets inside the pants to slip in padding or do I have to buy a pair of shorts? Would Knox shorts work or is it best to go with Dainese? If so, what model?

Answers

Answer: 
The New Drake Air Textile pants are rather form fitting. We might call them the "skinny jeans" of motorcycle pants.

Typically any kind of armored short can work under the pants. The New Drake Air's already have hip padding included and it is fairly firm. You might want to take out the padding because it would be too much.

As for tailbone protection, getting a pair of armored shorts that have tailbone padding can work. Also getting a longer, strap-on style back protector can give that lower coverage on your back.

Answer: 
I have the Dainese Fulcrum Gore-tex boots, and I am able to wear my New Drake pants zipped over the boots, or inside the boots. With my boots it's a tight fit with the pants over the boot tops, so I concur with the others who suggest armored boots would likely need to be worn outside the pants leg bottoms.

I think probably not. The leg opening is generous but even with my street boots I have a hard time getting in and out of the pants with them on. The pants do have full length zippers which are great but I still don't think it would be easy to get them on or off with racing boots on.

I'm looking for good riding pants I can wear "stand alone", not as overpants. These seem to be fitting the bill, but I just wanted to make sure: would they be comfortable if I were to use them as pants (during the summer that is)?

Thanks!

Answer: 
The Dainese New Drake Air Textile pants are 'stand alone' riding pants, not overpants. They are also very comfortable.

Answer: 
Absolutely. In fact, if you get the right size I would say they wouldn't work as overpants. They fit much more like jeans than a regular motorcycle pant.

Answer: 
I wear them as just stand alone pants when I go on weekend rides with my wife. No problems. I normally only wear slacks under them but have not felt or had any issues either way.

SIZING INSTRUCTIONS

We highly recommend finding a cloth tape measure and taking the time to take these measurements. Dainese sizes will not necessarily correlate with fitment in other brands.

  • Chestwidth: Measure from under/top of armpit cross chest to under/top of other armpit, then across back to first armpit
  • Waist: Measure at the hourglass of your torso, (circumference measured at your belly button)
  • Hips: pelvic bone to pelvic bone, the widest part of your hips below the waist
  • Inseam: from crotch to big ankle bone
  • Outseam: from waist to big ankle bone
