Knox is a British company specialising in the design and manufacturing of innovative body armour and apparel, mainly for motorcycling but also other adrenalin sports too.
Knox HQ is based in the beautiful Lake District in Cumbria and apparel is developed by a design team, based in the Knox Studio in London.
Knox has always had a pioneering spirit and has taken an innovative and unique approach to the development of motorcycle protection and apparel since it started, in 1981. For Knox making protection and apparel is so much more than just the next wonder material, more than just the science of kilo newtons, CE levels and impact testing, more than a CE certificate.
It’s a passion for making great products, seeking new materials, designing better feeling, better looking, better performing protection and apparel that work for riders on any ride, in any climate, on any bike.
It’s about the synergy between protection and motorcycle clothing, so they work in harmony.
Straightforward and clear service. The ordered products, Urbane Pro Utility MK3 shirt and Urbane Pro MK2 trousers, were delivered quickly and well packaged. The sizes corresponded well and the fit of the products is excellent. High-quality material, high-quality sewing throughout the entire product. Product maintenance and washing is easy. I have used the products during more than 10,000 driving kilometers from spring to early winter. I warmly recommend the products based on my experience.
Knox gloves are very poor quality and deteriorate after 12 months light usage. Not what you expect from a product priced at a premium price level (I paid over £200 for motorbike gloves). Gloves can no longer be used as a they are split and dangerous. Informed Knox who did not care about my concerns and told me they had no responsibility as they are not the retailer. Couldn't do anything about it as I was 1 month past the 12 month guarantee. Shocking company who doesn't care about safety of its customers, only profits.
Orsa OR4 Textile, bad stitching, weird sizing. The stitching of the bias tape started coming undone after first couple of weeks of use. The sizing is strange, too, I have exactly L size by Knox chart, to a millimetre: 200mm length, 230mm circumference. After consulting with support just in case I got the L size, the gloves seem to fit, until you ride in them, then you notice the fingers and especially the thumb are too short as soon as there is handlebar in your hand. Talked to support, they said if my measurements are correct (which they are) XL would not fit me. I just hope that the shop I bought them from will accept return and refund. It's funny, I'm glad the gloves stitching is of poor quality, as now they are returnable under warranty. This is not what I would expect for the price. Speaking of stitching, I see some loose threads coming off on my new Tor jacket, too. I hope, it's not going to come undone, if situation worsens, I'll have to return it, too. So stitching issues seem to be systeic from Knox. What a pity, such good design and such bad execution.
I love Knox products, they're A+ quality and have a lot of thought behind their design. Their customer services team are great and they have a great returns/refund policy which makes it super easy to get the right size.
Ordered a regular length jeans, and received a short-length jeans. Customer service insisted it was the regular length despite it clearly being labelled as the short version. Had to go back and forth with the customer service and they didn't even apologise for messing up and wasting my time.
Seam stitching failed on a pair of Orsa gloves after exactly 1yr and a month and only around 3000 miles of road riding very disappointed. I expected more from what I thought was a quality UK brand. Knox offered to repair them if I paid for the repair as it was out of 12 month warranty. Zero goodwill for a previously loyal customer. I’ll be spending my hard earned £ elsewhere in the future. Sub standard product & terrible customer service
I have bought a few things from plant knox jeans, jackets, Armer jackets etc I find the quality superior to any other you can buy on the market, the staff are so helpful and recently spoke to Jennifer shone to help me with a padded jacket I was after , she went above and beyond to sauce this product for me so grateful 🙏 thank you so very much for your time ,I can recommend them as a company and the products they sell ,such a great fit ,great for women's clothes too, most trousers have different leg lengths which is a plus in my opinion, ( and as we women know it's very hard to get the fit right in moterbike gear ) so don't bother looking at anything else, there is other stuff on the market ( for women & men) but not as good quality it's a little bit more expensive but you only get what you pay for and it's worth every penny 👍👍
Purchased a Knox Urbane Pro Utility in February 24. Had been looking for a medium in the camel colour and the only one I could find was from Motoin.De in Germany, The price was good, but probably slightly more expensive once VAT and import tax had been added by HMRC (gotta love brexit)! During a motorcycle trip to the Ardennes in May, noticed that the seam in one of the sleeves had come undone. Knox say they are uninterested in dealing directly with my problem and to go back to the shop of purchase! No response from Motoin.de. So all in all a sad response from both companies. A shame really because the jacket/shirt itself is really good (other than the sh1tty quality control on the stitching, of course).
Bought an Urbane pro Mk3 to replace my summer textile jacket. As I live in Spain, I used to use my summer jacket all year round with a wind proof base layer.... can´t do that anymore! This is significacntly more breatheable and I am looking forward to some extra airflow this summer. (I´ve waited a few moths to post this review to get a chance to see how it fairs in 30C+, very happy)
My Knox Mk1 summer gloves (approx six years old / 50,000 miles of biking) finally needed replacing. I bought a pair of Knox Orsa Mk3 summer gloves from Infinity, Chiswick, W4 as replacements. I would highly recommend these Knox gloves to all bikers due to their fit, the ease of fastening using the simple capstan locking wheel, the feel of the bike controls through the gloves and most importantly, the excellent venting system.
The delivery was quick and I received the product I ordered. I do not think I need to give more than 4 stars for getting what I expected.
Excellent product (Urban Pro) fast despatch
Gloves are generally fine. The second (the larger strap) seems too short to close to velcro patch if gloves are worn above jacket sleeves
Good quality product, fast delivery.
Ordered wrong size but return and replacement service very easy to use. Jeans very good quality.
Fantastic gloves , literally 5 times better than any other brand I’ve tried for quality , style and so far longevity
Quality product. Very comfortable
Thank you Fantastic service and the trousers are so comfortable, best ones out there for the lady’s .
Stylish, comfortable, excellent service - and best product
