Dungri

Whether you’re at the forefront of the 90s revival, or a fan of the humble workwear aesthetic, the Motogirl Irene “Dungri” are for you. Originating in 17th century India, the word “Dungri” referred to workwear trousers crafted from coarse, hard-wearing cloth. Fast-forward a couple of centuries, in the USA the bib was combined with the trousers to create what we know today as dungarees – plenty of storage eliminating the need for tool belts, and durable enough to withstand hard manual labour.

Motogirl have taken this further, designing a dungaree with enough protection to save your skin on a motorbike. Lined in all key areas with DuPont™ KEVLAR® for abrasion resistance, and included Level 2 CE impact protection at the knee, this is a serious bit of kit.

They’re not just protective – they’re incredibly comfortable too. Stretch fabric, adjustable straps for optimum fit, and a stretch panel at the back mean you’re pretty likely to be wearing these off the bike as much on. The hardy materials and knee pads make for pretty handy trousers for working on your bike too. What could be better – spend the morning wrenching, modding, and cleaning your pride and joy, then throw a jacket on and pop out for a ride.

Everyone from Judy Garland, to James Dean, to Whitney Houston loved a pair of Dungarees. Do one better, and get yourself a pair of Dungris.
