Full details
The Spada Blade Zip CE Hoodie is designed for motorcycle riders who prioritize a casual aesthetic without sacrificing critical safety features. It is ideal for urban commuters and short-trip riders looking for a lightweight, comfortable jacket that looks like everyday streetwear but offers CE Certified Level AA protection. While it provides excellent flexibility and impact defense through its integrated armor system, it is important to note that as a textile-based hoodie, it is best suited for fair-weather riding rather than extreme cold or heavy downpours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your armor provides the intended protection, always check that the shoulder and elbow inserts are correctly positioned within their internal pockets before your ride. If you find the jacket is too tight or loose, adjust the internal pockets if possible, or verify you have the correct sizing.
For cleaning, always remove the 5-piece armor set before washing. The polyester shell can typically be hand-washed or machine-washed on a delicate, cool cycle. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can compromise the material's integrity. Air dry the hoodie away from direct heat sources to prevent the fabric from shrinking or degrading the bonding.
