FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?
The jacket includes a removable thermal lining and is designed for multi-season use. For extreme cold, layering with additional thermal wear underneath is recommended.
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The primary material is robust D-Synth 350 fabric, known for its durability and protective qualities.
Are the back and chest protectors included?
No, the composite protectors for the shoulders and elbows are included. Pockets are provided for optional G1/G2 back protectors and chest protectors, which must be purchased separately.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Dainese sizing chart for the Avro 5 jacket. Measurements typically include chest, waist, and sleeve length. Comparing these to your own measurements will help ensure a proper fit.
Can this jacket be worn in hot weather?
Yes, the jacket features ventilation slits on the chest and back, along with a breathable mesh lining, to help manage heat in warmer conditions, especially when the thermal lining is removed.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant due to its fabric and construction. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, additional waterproofing solutions or a dedicated rain suit may be necessary.
How do I clean the jacket?
Hand wash with mild detergent, removing protectors first. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Drip dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Apply a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Gently work the zipper back and forth to smooth its operation.
Jacket feels tight or restrictive.
Ensure all adjustment points (waist, cuffs) are loosened. Verify that the correct size has been purchased and consider if the internal lining is fully zipped in, which can slightly reduce internal volume.
Water is seeping through despite the material.
This jacket is primarily water-resistant, not waterproof. For heavy rain, consider using a separate waterproof outer layer or ensuring all seams and zippers are properly sealed. Check if the jacket's DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish needs reapplication.
Removable lining is difficult to detach or reattach.
Ensure the main jacket zipper is fully open and that no fabric is caught in the lining's zipper. Align the lining zipper carefully with the jacket's internal zipper before attempting to zip.
