Key features of John Doe Jogger XTM
Sportsbikeshop lists the following details for the checked version:

- Level 1 knee and hip protection included
- Elastic waistband with drawstring
- Mid-rise waistband, straight at the hip and tapered towards the ankle
Protection and construction
The listed garment certification is Class AA. This describes the clothing classification; the impact protectors have their own ratings.
The specification lists protection at the hip and knee. Check that these areas sit correctly when you adopt your riding position.
Comfort and everyday use
Stretch material is part of the construction. Try the garment in a riding position so you can assess movement at the waist, hips and knees rather than judging the fit only while standing.
Seated fit and protection positions
Try the trousers while seated on the motorcycle, with your usual boots. Check the waist, leg length and any protector positions in that posture. A comfortable standing fit alone does not establish where knee protection will sit when you ride. Confirm the size chart and any jacket connection separately.
