Who orders it

Who orders women's gear: brands, teams, academies and dealers

Four buyers, all tired of the same three complaints coming back from the same three proportions.

Riding-gear brands

Want a women's line that is genuinely developed rather than recoloured — and can say so credibly.

Three differences

The three differences that actually matter

Not chest measurements — proportions. Each one has a consequence you can feel on a bike, and each one is fixed at the block or not at all.

Pattern showing the back rise to hip proportion on a women's block01

Back rise to hip

Scaled → pant pulls down at the back

The distance from waist to hip and the way the rise sits are different — which is why a scaled men's pant drops at the back in the riding position and takes the armor with it.

A pattern showing a larger chest-to-waist difference02

Chest-to-waist ratio

Scaled → right at one, wrong at the other

A larger difference between chest and waist means a garment cut to the chest is loose at the waist, and one cut to the waist is tight at the chest.

Knee armor position set from the knee point rather than a scaled pattern03

Knee point

Scaled → armor sits above the knee

The knee breaks higher. Pant knee armor set from a men's pattern sits above the joint — which is exactly where it does nothing at all.

Fix them at the blockand the rest of the garment follows. Fix them with a size chart and you get a smaller version of the same three problems, which is what the market is mostly selling.
What stays

Two things that deliberately do not scale down

The protection does not shrink, and the armhole cannot

  • The armor is the same armorSo the pockets are the same size, and the panels around them keep their proportions rather than being squeezed.
  • The armhole depth is heldEven though the shoulder is narrower — an armhole shortened along with the shoulder is one a rider cannot raise their arms in with a chest protector on.
How to check itPut shoulder armor in and reach forward to a bar position. If the jersey lifts at the hem, the armhole was scaled with the shoulder.

The block

Three offsets, drawn on the pattern

Scroll: each offset is drawn against the men's reference outline. Three lines — that is the difference between a developed range and a recoloured one.

Back rise Chest–waist Knee point
Dashed = reference The dashed outline is the men's block at the same nominal size. Everything this page argues is the gap between the two lines.
  • Back rise moves firstBecause it decides where the waist actually sits, and everything below it follows.
  • Chest-to-waist is shaped, not sizedThe seams move to where the body changes shape rather than where they fall on a men's pattern.
  • Knee point moves the armor with itThe pocket is repositioned on the block, not carried over and hoped for.
  • Everything else is graded from those threeWhich is why this is one development rather than a list of tweaks per size.
How to check itAsk to see the women's block laid over the men's. If nobody can produce that drawing, there is only one block.
Why it is drawn rather than describedBecause an overlay settles the question in three seconds and a paragraph never does. It is also the document that survives a change of staff on either side — the drawing stays true after everyone who remembers the conversation has moved on.
Three rows
change

A recoloured men's small reproduces none of them. That is the whole argument on this page.

Grading

The pants are graded on the hip, not the waist

This single decision is why most women's MX pants do not fit

Men's pants are graded on the waist. Graded that way, a women's pant that fits the waist is tight over the hip and one that fits the hip gapes at the waist. Ours are graded on the hip, with the waist taken up by the closure and the pattern shaped between the two.

  • The rise, the seat shaping, the ratchet position and the thigh taper all move with that decision.
  • The knee panel position moves with the knee point, so the armor arrives where the joint is.
  • It is the same order of operations any womenswear pattern room uses — and almost no motocross range does.
How to check itAsk what measurement the pants are graded on. If the answer is the waist, they are men's pants in a different colour.

The jersey

The jersey is judged at speed, not on a hanger

A jersey that fits the chest and hangs everywhere else is not a fit, it is an average

Same 140–160 gsm mesh, same all-over sublimation as any other jersey we print. What changes is where the panel seams sit: at the points the body's shape changes rather than where they would fall on a men's pattern. Length is set for the riding position so it stays tucked, and the sleeve is pitched forward like every riding garment here.

How to check itPut it on and get into an attack position. If the hem comes out at the front, it was cut for standing.
Why the flat photo misleadsAlmost every buying decision about a jersey is made from a flat product shot, and a jersey cut on an averaged pattern photographs perfectly flat — better, in fact, than one shaped for a body, because shaping reads as a wrinkle on a table. The garment that looks slightly less tidy in the photo is usually the one that stays tucked at the third corner.

Armor position

Armor pockets move with the block

Pads have to be over joints, and joints move when the block changes

When the knee point and the shoulder point move, the armor pockets move with them. This sounds obvious, and it is the single most common thing left undone in a women's range: the block gets adjusted and the pocket positions are carried over from the men's pattern.

The result of skipping itGear that fits better and protects in the wrong places — which is arguably worse than gear that fits badly, because nobody checks a garment that feels right.
  • Pocket positions are re-set on the women's block, in the riding position, with the pad in.
  • The panel around each pocket is re-shaped too — a moved pocket in an unmoved panel just moves the problem.
How to check itPut the armor in, get on a bike, and look at where the knee pad actually sits when the leg is bent on the peg.

Colour

Colour is a choice, not the product

We will print whatever a brand or a team wants — the same sublimation, the same saved profile, the same archive. What we will not do is offer a "women's version" that is a colourway and nothing else.

What a colour-only range actually costs you

Nothing, at first — which is the trap. A recoloured range ships on the same schedule as the men's one, photographs identically, and sells through the first season on novelty alone. The cost arrives as returns in month four, as the same three complaints repeated by people who assumed the problem was their own size, and as a women's customer who quietly stops buying from that brand rather than complaining about it. None of that appears in the development budget, which is precisely why the decision keeps getting made the same way.

For mixed teamsThe men's and women's kits are printed from the same team profile, so they read as one kit at the gate. Different blocks, one colour file — and asking a supplier what changes besides the colour tells you everything you need to know.
Sizes

Sizes, and fitting a real range of bodies

One block, a proper grade, and a size run tried on before bulk

The women's block is graded across its own size range, and the size-run set is tried on real riders in the kit they ride in — exactly like every other garment here. Comments come back per size rather than as one average, which is what stops the middle of the run being right only by accident.

How to check itAsk whether the women's size run was tried on or measured. It is the same question that matters for any range — and it is skipped more often on this one.
  • Comments are collected per size, so a correction at 2XL does not get averaged away by four people who were happy at M.
  • Any correction goes back into the graded set before the line is released, not into a note for next season.
Who the size run is tried onRiders, in the kit they actually ride in — base layer, armor, boots. A size run tried on without the armor tells you about the garment and nothing about the garment in use, which is the only state it will ever be worn in.

Mixed rosters

Team kits across a mixed roster

Two blocks, one roster, one set of colours — and packed so nobody is handed the wrong version at the gate.

Kit packed by rider rather than by block
Packed by rider

A club with men and women on the same roster orders one kit: the same design, the same profile, names and numbers from one roster sheet, and each rider's piece cut on the block that fits them.

  • The size sheet carries both size sets, so production measures each piece against the right one.
  • Packing is by rider rather than by block, so nothing has to be sorted at the track.
How to check itAsk how a mixed roster is packed. If both versions come in separate cartons by size, somebody is sorting them on race morning.
