Engineered for the urban riders, the Men’s Shield Full Zip Hoody by Knox is not your average casual hoodie: it meets the demanding EN 17092 Class AAA standard and comes equipped with Micro-Lock Compact armour in the shoulders, elbows and back—giving you impact protection typically reserved for specialist race wear.
Constructed from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) alongside elastane-rich stretch fabrics, the Shield Hoody blends high-strength abrasion resistance with everyday wearability. The close, body-fitting cut ensures the protective armour remains exactly where it should, staying put through corners, kicks, and unexpected slides. The YKK full-zip layout and integrated hood (lined with soft cotton) bring casual comfort while the internal pockets for mobile and ear-plugs, plus external zip-pockets and a visor-wipe, show that Knox thought of the fine details.
Whether you’re commuting through city streets, carving backroads or simply heading out on a weekend ride, this hoody offers a rare combination of serious rider protection and everyday style. It features reflective prints for visibility after dark, thumb-loops for secure wear, and a discreet internal belt-loop system so you can pair it with jeans and feel confident both in motion and when you park up. With Men’s sizes ranging from S to 3XL and presented in sleek black, this piece becomes an essential layer in your riding kit—no bulky jacket needed unless you choose to add one.
Choose the Shield Hoody when you want to ride with freedom and safety built-in.
