What is PEKEV®
PEKEV® is a revolutionary fabric that is the result of 10 years’ research and development by Resurgence Gear. By utilising the highest quality spinning techniques we have pushed the boundaries of aramids and ethylene fibres, developing the strongest fabric in the world, the 3rd generation PEKEV® fabric.
Constructed from the toughest polymer with the highest breaking point of any yarn, PEKEV® is unsurpassed among modern day protection layers.
Compared to other polymers, PEKEV® has the highest impact strength, is self-lubricating, has high wicking properties, has a low amount of friction and is resistant to abrasion. PEKEV® is 15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel.
The 3rd generation PEKEV® fabric has been internationally tested excelling in safety, durability and usability.
Combining this latest technology with high street fashion has created a new standard of protection and comfort in motorcycle clothing.
FEATURES
- CE level 2 abrasion rating at 10.83 seconds
- Over 200% stronger than similar fabrics
- 15 times stronger than carbon steel
- Inner wicking mesh liner
- Dual layer and cross stitching for exceptional strength
- Longer lifespan compared to other brands
- Durable against bleach, UV, heat dispersion, moisture, detergents, and ionic enzyme washing
- Jeans weigh 0.5 kilos less than competitors
What is PEKEV® LITE
PEKEV® Lite is the perfect alternative to aramid. PEKEV® Lite jeans have been designed to be the world’s best lightweight protection jeans, offering both strength and comfort to the rider.
Ensuring that impact, abrasion, and motion cut resistance are maintained, the style of the motorcycle clothing remains a key factor, ensuring that the tailoring is to the highest standard for an excellent fit.
With PEKEV® Lite, technology, comfort and style have been fused together.

What is PEKEV® ULTRA LITE
PEKEV® Ultra Lite is a new addition to the revolutionary Pekev® fabric range. A single layer Pekev®/cotton/elasteen combination.
PEKEV Ultra Lite is made by wrapping our industry leading, highly abrasion resistant PEKEV thread in dyed cotton and elasteen. The resulting thread is then woven into fabric, creating a highly abrasion resistant cloth that is cotton to the touch and therefore feels like normal denim, while having our high strength PEKEV at the core of every single thread.
PEKEV Ultra Lite is woven such that on the facing side of the fabric there is a PEKEV cored thread to every one on the rear face of the fabric, to provide the highest levels of abrasion resistance available to a light-weight single layer denim fabric and is unsurpassed among modern day protection layers.
Compared to other polymers, PEKEV® has the highest impact strength, is self-lubricating, has high wicking properties, has a low amount of friction and is resistant to abrasion. PEKEV® is 15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel.
PEKEV® Ultra Lite fabric has been internationally tested excelling in safety, durability and usability. We have combined this latest fabric technology with high street fashion to create a new standard of protection and comfort in motorcycle clothing.
FEATURES
- CE EN 13595 – Level 1 and CE EN17092 – AA abrasion ratings
- Over 200% stronger than similar fabrics
- 15 times stronger than carbon steel
- Comfort stretch with integrated elasteen
- Longer lifespan compared to other brands
- Durable against bleach, UV, heat dispersion, moisture, detergents, and ionic enzyme washing.
All our products use PEKEV® linings, allowing us to create the highest CE level 2 abrasion rating at 10.83 seconds for jeans and the world’s first CE rating at 8.17 seconds for cargo trousers.
