The Hypermesh Elite Pants are a true hybrid design, combining the airflow and mobility of in-the-boot motocross pants with the abrasion resistance required for road riding. Built for riders who transition from sealed roads to technical off-road terrain, these pants deliver protection without restricting movement. Whether you’re riding from home to local trails or tackling long-distance adventures that mix highway miles with demanding off-road sections, the Hypermesh Elite Pants are designed to move with you every step of the way.
Stretch Schoeller® Dynatec Micro-Mesh
Made in Switzerland, this advanced stretch mesh fabric delivers exceptional airflow, high abrasion resistance and unrestricted freedom of movement.
Engineered for the Slide
In lab tests using the Schopper method (grit 280 sandpaper under a 1 kg load), the fabric withstood over 3,000 revolutions, simulating prolonged scraping against rough surfaces. For motorcycle-specific protection, it meets EN 17092 AAA-class impact abrasion standards in Zone 2 (medium-risk areas like the outer thighs and shins), capable of enduring slides equivalent to approximately 70–100 km/h, helping to reduce road rash in these regions during a crash. While this provides strong protection for touring and everyday riding, higher-risk Zone 1 areas, such as the knees and hips, rely on our 'Zeus Pro' CE Level 2 armour (sold separately) for impact absorption.
Ultimate Dual-Sport Hot Weather Design
The entire pant is engineered as a vent, maximising airflow to keep you cool during slow, technical off-road riding and hot weather road sections.
Armour & Knee Brace Compatible
Designed to accept knee and hip armour for enhanced impact protection, while remaining fully compatible with modern knee braces (armour sold separately).
Teramid® / Kevlar® Knee Panels
Reinforced knee zones add durability, heat resistance and protection in high-wear areas without compromising flexibility.
In-the-Boot Fit with Adjustable Waistband
A motocross-inspired cut that fits clean inside the boot and allows maximum mobility, paired with an adjustable waistband for a secure, dialled fit. The legs are a bit longer than a standard MX pant, which allows you to run them with standard boots/sneakers if needed.
Dual Glove-Friendly Cargo Pockets
Practical, easy-access storage designed to be used with gloves on, on or off the bike.
DWR Coating
A durable water-repellent finish helps shed dirt and moisture to keep the pants lighter and cleaner throughout the ride.

They're definitly far better than any other pants out there! Fit and quality is amazing.
Hypermesh pants are the business, the perfect pair for when I need them. So comfortable, the right amount of adjustment, protective and cool in every sense of the word. Oh Akin Moto you have done it again. Impressive!
I've been running Akin gear for as long as I can remember and it's always been for good reason; great gear ran by great guys.
However, I was always torn for what to wear depending where I was going - my stealth jeans are great for commuting, getting around town and chill rides on the road providing full confidence with armour & abrasion resistance but they'd get HOT when I'd head into the trails or ride in the summer.
The Slipstream pants solve the heat problem for the trails with their insane airflow but the lack of abrasion resistance (being off-road pants) was a bit of a worry when hitting the tarmac to/from the trails.
I discussed this with Max and he fully understood where I was coming from but kept assuring me a solution was coming and I can confidently say these pants are the ultimate solution.
Plenty of space for knee braces when riding off-road but slim enough to still run the more comfortable knee armour for when commuting/riding on road.
Insanely breathable with loads of stretch, massive pockets for your phone/wallet/keys and like the rest of the Akin gear, they just look sick!
No overpowering branding, ugly reflective crap and just an all-round perfect fit.
AND although they're designed to be in-boot pants, they actually don't look too bad with some smaller riding boots/shoes when commuting or popping out for a coffee.
Thanks so much for sharing such a thorough breakdown Brad! We're incredibly stoked to hear that the Hypermesh Elite pants have become your ultimate solution for a mix of off-road and road riding. As you mentioned, Max has been working on this option for some time, and it’s awesome to see how well they’ve been received.
I appreciate you highlighting all the details on these like breathability, storage and subtle branding on top of great protection - these are exactly the things we want Akin gear to be known for.
Cheers again for running Akin Moto gear, and enjoy the ride!
I've been running the Blackhawk pants for commuting and casual rides and the vortex off-road pants for trail riding on my dual sport bike. Both are great for their purpose but since purchasing these, it's be a total game changer and the best of both worlds. They're so light and breezey for hot days (no more sweaty legs rocking up to the next stop, especially around the Gold Coast) and I feel super protected after talking to the team explaining how they have an extremely high protection rating. My zeus knee armour fits perfectly and I can't even feel them while riding and then my knee braces also fit with no worries when I'm on the dirt. I wore them recently on an enduro day and they felt breathable and comfortable the whole time, felt like an mx pant. The pockets on the top of the thigh are a great design if you need to use them, I couldn't feel them at the bottom of my Tech 7's with shin/ankle rub and the waist tightening strap saves me having to wear a belt. Get yourself a pair, cheers legends!
Tom, thanks a lot for taking the time to leave such a detailed review - really appreciate you sharing your experience across a few different styles of pants.
It's great to hear how the Hypermesh Elite has slotted in alongside your Blackhawk and Vortex pants and ended up covering both roles. We spent a lot of time trying to balance airflow with proper protection in this pair, so it’s awesome to hear they’re keeping things cool on those hotter rides while still giving you confidence in the protection.
I'm glad the Zeus knee armour is working well for you too, and that you’ve still got room for the knee braces when you head off-road. It’s good to know the fit, pockets, and waist adjuster are all doing their job without getting in the way of riding or your boots.
Really appreciate the support across the range Tom - enjoy the rides and thanks again for backing Akin Moto!
Finally an Under the Boot Adventure Pant and they're actually way more comfortable than the XXL baggy, thick, heavy adventure pants I'd been running. Love them!
Absolutely love the enthusiasm Bob, cheers for the review legend!
We're so stoked to hear the Hypermesh Elite pants have knocked the other adventure pants out of the game in every way. Appreciate you taking the time to share your hype!
