knitted vs woven kevlar in jeans
I emailed Aussie company "Draggin Jeans" after one of their
products failed to protect me due to not being fully-lined). I asked why their products were not fully lined like some of their competitors and as part of thier reply they wrote back that: > [our competitors] use woven Kevlar....this is a no > no for motorcyclists...woven kevlar as tested by us in a > certified lab. lasted 250 cyles.....3 samples lasted a combined 750 > cycles...draggin jeans KNITTED kevlar lasted 2000 cycles. > > It must be knitted...woven is just no good...and it transfers heat to > your skin....knitted dissipates the heat...you can read about knitted v`s > woven on websites for motorcyclists. > > But woven is much cheaper. What can you guys tell me about woven vs knitted aramid-fibre (kevlar) linings? |
