The jacket is designed for waterproof and windproof protection. For very cold weather, layering with insulating garments underneath is recommended.
This is a standard GORE-TEX promise, indicating that the jacket's membrane and construction will prevent water from penetrating, keeping the wearer dry from external moisture.
While designed for motorcycling, its waterproof and breathable features make it suitable for other outdoor activities in wet conditions, though it may not have the specific fit or features for other sports.
The product description does not specify built-in armor. It is designed as a textile jacket, and compatibility with separate armor inserts should be verified.
Reapply the DWR treatment when you notice water is no longer beading on the jacket's surface after washing and drying. This typically depends on usage and washing frequency.
Use a small amount of liquid, non-chlorine bleach-free detergent. Avoid powdered detergents, fabric softeners, and bleach, as these can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and DWR finish.
Ensure the DWR finish is intact. If not, clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment. Also, check that all seams and zippers are fully sealed.
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
Avoid harsh scrubbing on the reflective areas during cleaning. If minor damage occurs, consult the manufacturer for repair options. Do not attempt to iron or apply heat directly to the reflective material.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before wear. It is designed to be worn over protective riding gear.
Compatibility: Designed for adult motorcycle riders. It pairs well with other motorcycle apparel such as riding pants and gloves. Compatibility with specific armor inserts (if not pre-installed) should be checked against the jacket's internal specifications.
Care: To maintain the waterproof and breathable properties of the GORE-TEX fabric:
