FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter riding?

Yes, the Oxford Sterling D2D Jacket is suitable for winter riding when the removable thermal gilet is installed. The Dry2Dry membrane also helps to block wind chill.

How do I clean the Armourlite Pro Wax fabric?

It is best to hand wash the jacket using a mild detergent and cool water. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, or using fabric softeners. Allow it to air dry naturally.

What is the waterproof rating of the Dry2Dry membrane?

The Dry2Dry membrane has a waterproof rating of 5,000mm and a breathability rating of 5,000g/m²/24hrs.

Are the CE protectors adjustable?

The CE Level 2 protectors are located in dedicated pockets and are designed for optimal placement. While they are not individually height-adjustable within the pocket, the jacket's fit should ensure they are correctly positioned.

Can I wear a back protector with this jacket?

This jacket is CE Class AA certified with the included shoulder and elbow protectors. While it may accommodate a slim profile back protector, it is not explicitly designed with a back protector pocket. Check compatibility with specific back protector models.

Is this jacket suitable for sportbike riding?

The jacket is tailored for upright riding positions and may not be ideal for the aggressive, forward-leaning posture of sportbike riding due to its cut and features like the longer rear length.

Troubleshooting

Water ingress through seams

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the outer fabric is clean. For persistent issues, consider seam sealing or re-waterproofing treatments designed for technical outerwear.

Overheating during rides

Open all ventilation zippers (chest, arms, and rear). Ensure the thermal gilet is removed if not needed. Ride during cooler parts of the day or take breaks.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth and try again. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Protectors feel uncomfortable or shift

Ensure the protectors are correctly seated within their designated pockets. Adjust the fit of the jacket and your riding posture. The protectors are designed to move with you; some initial adjustment may be needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The jacket comes with CE Level 2 protectors pre-installed in the shoulder and elbow pockets. The removable thermal gilet can be easily attached or detached using internal zippers. Ensure all zippers are fully closed for maximum water protection.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed for adult male riders. It is best suited for upright riding positions typically found on standard, adventure, or touring motorcycles. It is not specifically designed for aggressive sportbike riding stances.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance of the Armourlite Pro Wax fabric and the Dry2Dry membrane, hand washing is recommended. Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners. Do not tumble dry; instead, allow the jacket to air dry away from direct heat. Re-proofing may be necessary periodically to maintain water repellency, following manufacturer guidelines for waxed fabrics.
