Tested Tough: How PANDO MOTO Gear Proves Its Protection

May 21, 2025

At PANDO MOTO, we build protection into every stitch. Real safety goes beyond design — and we prove it through rigorous testing in the lab and on the road. That’s why we rigorously test all our gear at CTC, a top CE-accredited lab we’ve partnered with for years. Recently, we visited onsite to see our gear tested firsthand, gaining fresh insights to keep improving.

Built from the Ground Up — With Smarter Materials

After all, great gear starts long before design. That’s why at PANDO MOTO, we begin by sourcing and testing only the toughest, lightest, and most advanced materials. If a material fails to meet our strict standards, we don’t use it. After all, true innovation means creating gear that delivers safety, function, and style — especially when it matters most.

Key Safety Tests Our Gear Undergoes

1. Abrasion Resistance
In a crash, sliding across the road can shred fabric in seconds. We simulate high-speed slides to see how long our materials last under friction. Those extra seconds of resistance can make a life-saving difference.

2. The Darmstadt Method
A next-level crash simulation that mimics real-world slide and impact conditions. It’s how we earn trusted CE safety ratings (AAA, AA, A) — and push our materials like Cordura®, Kevlar®, and Balistex® to their limits.

3. Seam Strength
A fabric is only as strong as its weakest point — often the seams. We test every stitch under crash-level stress to ensure your gear holds together when it matters most.

4. Tear Resistance
Sharp edges, debris, and unexpected snags are all hazards on the road. We test our gear to resist rips and punctures, helping you stay protected in unpredictable situations.

5. Impact Protection
We put our armor to the test — literally — to measure how well it absorbs shock in a fall. We design our gloves, jackets, and pants to reduce the force on your body without sacrificing flexibility.

6. Footwear Testing
In a crash, your feet are highly vulnerable. That’s why our sneakers undergo impact, pressure, and grip tests to ensure they protect against crush injuries — all while looking like your favorite casual shoes.

From Lab to Life — Real Protection for Real Riders

At PANDO MOTO, we don’t just test our gear in the lab — we take it out on real roads and into real crashes. That’s why we provide true protection where it counts.

Our gear looks great, but more importantly, we build it to keep you safe without sacrificing comfort or style.

We design every piece with one goal: your safety.

Ride protected. Ride in style. Ride with PANDO MOTO.
