FAQs

What is the primary material of the Dainese Avro 5 jacket?

The primary material is Tutu cowhide leather, known for its durability and abrasion resistance.

Is the thermal liner removable?

Yes, the thermal liner is removable, allowing for versatile use in different weather conditions. It can also be used separately.

What type of protection does the jacket offer?

It includes composite protectors at the elbows and shoulders, and co-injected aluminum plates on the shoulders for impact protection and slide enhancement.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Refer to the Dainese size guide for precise measurements. A proper fit is crucial for the jacket's protective function and comfort.

Can this jacket be connected to riding pants?

Yes, the jacket features a 360° connection zipper for seamless integration with compatible Dainese riding pants.

Is this jacket suitable for very hot weather?

With the thermal liner removed, the jacket offers ventilation, but its leather construction may still be warm in extreme heat. It is best suited for cool to mild conditions.

How should I clean and maintain the leather?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and periodically condition the leather with a specialized product to maintain its suppleness. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth to smooth its movement.

Liner is difficult to attach/remove

Ensure the jacket is laid flat and the liner's zippers and snap buttons are properly aligned before attempting to attach or detach. Do not force the components.

Leather appears dry or cracked

Apply a quality leather conditioner to moisturize the leather. Repeat conditioning every few months or as needed based on climate and usage.

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive

Confirm you have selected the correct size using the Dainese size guide. A snug fit is necessary for protection, but excessive tightness may indicate an incorrect size or the need for a break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Dainese Avro 5 Leather Jacket comes ready to wear. Ensure you consult the Dainese size guide for accurate measurements before purchase, as a proper fit is essential for both comfort and the effectiveness of the protective features. The removable thermal liner can be easily attached or detached using the internal zippers and snap buttons.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed to be compatible with most Dainese riding pants via the 360° connection zipper. Check the specific model of Dainese pants for zipper compatibility. It can also be worn independently as riding apparel.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For the inner liner, follow standard garment care instructions (usually machine washable on a delicate cycle, but check the care label).
  2. Conditioning: Periodically treat the leather with a dedicated leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking. Apply conditioner evenly and buff off any excess.
  3. Storage: Store the jacket on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing. Do not store in plastic bags, as leather needs to breathe.
