FAQs
What type of protection does this jacket offer?
The jacket comes with CE Level 1 rated elbow and shoulder protectors. It also has a pocket for an optional Oxford Back Protector (sold separately).
How do I ensure the best fit?
You can adjust the waist, cuffs, and collar using the provided adjustment straps and closures for a personalized fit.
Is the jacket suitable for hot weather riding?
The jacket features a mesh construction which aids in ventilation, making it suitable for warmer weather commuting. However, it is an entry-level jacket and may not provide the same level of airflow as specialized mesh jackets.
Can I wear a back protector with this jacket?
Yes, the jacket has a dedicated pocket for an Oxford Back Protector, which must be purchased separately.
How should I clean the jacket?
It is recommended to hand wash the jacket in cold water with mild soap. Remove protectors before washing and allow the jacket to air dry.
What does 'CE Level 1' mean for the protectors?
CE Level 1 protectors ensure that the maximum transmitted force is below 18 kN, and no single value exceeds 24 kN, indicating a standard level of impact absorption.
Are the reflective details effective at night?
The printed reflective details are designed to enhance visibility by reflecting light from external sources, such as headlights, making you more visible in low-light and dark conditions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the waist, cuffs, and collar using the integrated adjustment points to achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
Reflective details are not visible.
Ensure the reflective details are clean and free from dirt or debris. Their effectiveness is most apparent under direct light sources.
CE protectors feel out of place.
Remove the CE protectors and reinsert them into their designated pockets, ensuring they sit flat and cover the elbow or shoulder area correctly.
Pant connector not compatible with existing trousers.
The short pant connector is designed for specific Oxford riding trousers. Check compatibility or consider purchasing Oxford trousers for a secure connection.
