Patent attributes
An article of protective clothing for use by a motorcyclist, or the like, including an abrasion resistant material is provided. The abrasion resistant material is attached to an inner surface of the clothing by being sewn along at least one inside seam away from a waist portion of the clothing so as to limit the outward modification of an otherwise normal garment to a casual observer while still providing protection to the motorcyclist. The article of clothing is relatively indistinguishable from regular clothing. The article of clothing includes a pair of trousers with an inner protective abrasion resistant panel, which extends across a knee area and then up the side of the clothing along a thigh area to a hip and then around a bottom area to then return down the side of the other leg to the portion extending around the knee area.
