FAQs

What makes the GORE-TEX ePE membrane special?

The GORE-TEX ePE membrane offers advanced waterproofing and breathability, designed to keep riders dry and comfortable in a wide range of weather conditions without compromising on durability or lightness.

Is this jacket suitable for hot weather riding?

While the GORE-TEX ePE membrane is breathable, this jacket is primarily designed for sport touring in varied and potentially cooler conditions. For extreme heat, consider layering adjustments or ventilation options.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Dainese sizing chart and take accurate body measurements, particularly chest, waist, and sleeve length. Consider wearing your typical riding base layers when measuring for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear this jacket year-round?

Yes, with appropriate layering underneath, the jacket's waterproofing and breathability make it suitable for year-round riding, especially for sport touring where conditions can vary.

What kind of protection does this jacket offer?

This jacket is designed to integrate with Dainese protectors (sold separately) in key areas to offer comprehensive impact protection suitable for sport touring.

Does the jacket come with any armor?

The product description does not specify included armor. It is designed to be compatible with Dainese protectors, which are typically sold separately.

How often should I clean my jacket?

It's recommended to clean your jacket after significant use or at least once a season. Regular cleaning helps maintain the performance of the waterproof and breathable membrane.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash according to care instructions and tumble dry to reactivate the DWR finish. If performance is still degraded, reapply a DWR treatment.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.

Inner lining is uncomfortable or sticky

Ensure the jacket is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed to remove any detergent or body oils. Proper drying is crucial.

Fit feels restrictive

Check all adjustment points (cuffs, waist, collar) and ensure they are set correctly. Verify that the jacket size is appropriate for your body measurements and riding posture.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance of the GORE-TEX ePE membrane and the jacket's integrity:

  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
