Testing

Phoenix Hipwear utilizes Crash Cloud Technology by Windpact. The Patented technology both absorbs energy as it compresses, and dissipates energy through impact vents, before rapidly re-inflating like a spring.

Phoenix Hipwear tests the shields to the International Standard EN1621-1 - this recognized standard is for "Motorcyclists Protective Clothing Against Mechanical Impact". In the absence of any required test standard for hip protectors, we want to be certain that our shields provide the highest level of protection possible. By ensuring our shields pass this high impact test for motorcyclists who fall from their bikes, we are confident that your hips are well protected!
