Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the Flex and Adapt side closure system to snug the jacket against your torso once you have your preferred base layer underneath. The jacket is compatible with most standard riding trousers via the internal belt loop system. For care, always remove the Micro-Lock armour inserts before cleaning the outer shell. Hand wash the fabric portion with a mild detergent and allow it to air dry away from direct heat sources. Regularly inspect the armour for any signs of degradation and ensure that the YKK zips remain free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
