As well as keeping the rain out and insulating the body’s core, the Cruiser’s liners feature breathable 3D net zones in key areas, to help regulate body temperature during changeable conditions and prevent perspiration build-up. Both the waterproof and thermal liners can be removed and re-fitted – either individually, or together – to give the best possible combination for the conditions.
When the temperature rises, zip-adjustable ventilation on the sleeves and shoulders and removable panels on the torso can be utilised, allowing cool air to circulate around the upper body. For additional ventilation, two of the chest pockets can also be completely removed.
To help with visibility on dull days, the SHV system is integrated into the sleeves. Quick and easy to use, simply unfurl the high-viz band concealed in a pocket on the upper arm and attach it to the sleeve to catch the eye of other road users.
If the worst should happen, the tough Teflon-treated polymer outer shell, shoulder and elbow armour offer high abrasion resistance and impact protection. A pocket is also included for the fitment of a back protector.
Finally, to make sure the rider has everything they need with them, no fewer than eight front pockets are included, plus one large waterproof back pocket and five internal pockets.
