Introducing the Dual-Duty Motorcycle Pants. Workwear toughness meets motorcycle-grade protection in one purpose-built package.
The Dual-Duty Pants are a new hybrid design that seamlessly blends rugged workwear with modern protective motorcycle gear. Put them on in the morning, ride to the jobsite fully protected, remove the knee armour without taking the pants off, put in a full day’s work, then slide the armour back in and ride home. No changing, no compromises. Just purpose-built versatility backed by serious protection if something unexpected happens on the road.
12oz CORDURA® Stretch Fabric
A hard-wearing, abrasion-resistant fabric engineered for protection and built to move. The perfect balance of durability, stretch and all-day comfort.
Kevlar® + COOLMAX® Reinforcement
Impact zones are lined with genuine DuPont™ Kevlar® for dependable slide protection, paired with COOLMAX® technology to wick moisture and regulate temperature during long days on the tools or in the saddle.
Armour Compatible
Designed to accept our ultra-thin Zeus Pro Level 2 knee and hip armour (sold separately) for maximum protection with minimal bulk.
Dual-Zone Knee Armour Pockets
Access your knee armour through an external zipper for quick removal or adjustment without ever needing to take the pants off.
Reinforced Seams
Triple-needle stitching provides exceptional seam strength for demanding environments.
10 Functional Pockets
Yes, TEN pockets. Ample storage for tools, gear and everyday essentials. Includes dedicated phone pocket that fits the largest iPhone with ease.
Heavy-Duty YKK® Zippers
Reliable hardware designed to endure dust, dirt and daily abuse.
The Dual-Duty Motorcycle Pants deliver true versatility for riders who work hard, ride daily and need gear that performs in both environments. They offer the durability required on the job and the protection expected on the road, all in one reliable pair of pants.

These have been the most comfortable and safe pants I have purchased to date. Excellent materials, well made and locally designed. Perfect for the office, on a job site or just a casual ride. Very well done Grant and the Akin moto team for catering to the whole riding community. Even fits well for those with larger thighs from sport! Looking forward to more colourways, best pants I’ve worn.
(Mouthfull coming up) These pants are straight up unbeatable. I have never personally found anything like it online or anywhere in South Oz. These have the features I've wanted always wanted as a daily rider. Those being cuffed ankles to go over my boots, endless pockets and belt loops. I've found pants with these features, but never all 3. I should count myself very lucky as these pants actually spawned from my idea and an email chain with Grant back in 2024 I believe.
The quality as always with Akin is superior to anything out there. A LOT of brands say designed by riders for riders. Then they do dumb things and put steel zips on your wrists with no way to stop that giant zip from flapping around in the wind or slapping your tank when you fuel up. Akin however truly do think about all the tiny little annoyances that a rider may deal with in other brands gear and properly perfect there's.
The pockets. Cannot tell you grateful I am that there are heaps of pockets on this rather than 2 giant ones that equate to a females purse and you gotta pull everything out for the one little thing you're looking for. Not to mention the way the pants fit, the pockets don't dangle off of the actual pants themselves. Also zips and velcro to keep your valuables safe!
I've crashed in Akin pants before (stealth jeans) I was unscathed, and am certain I'd have the same result with these pants.
These pants along with the rest of Akin's gear, will protect you while not being encumbersome. Any of their gear, take the armor out and you've got a wicked piece of everyday clothing if you wish.
Enough of the mouthfull. Akin is the GOAT and wish em a successful and long future as I'm only 25 so gonna need them to keep making motorbike gear until I can't physically ride.

They look great, feel really sturdy and protective, all while staying light and comfy! I've been riding in them from 35 degrees down to about 15 degrees and they've been great in all conditions so far, definitely recommend!
Cheers Hugo! Really appreciate you taking the time to share this. We're stoked to hear the Dual-Duty pants are keeping you comfortable across such a wide range of temps while still feeling protective and sturdy. Thanks for the recommendation - it means a lot!
That’s right so bloody comfortable, loving the feel of these pants, the fit is spot on. Well done Akin Moto you really are amazing.
