FAQs
What material is the Dainese Avro 5 jacket made from?
The main construction is high-quality Tutu cowhide leather, complemented by S1 and Microelastic 2.0 stretch fabric inserts for enhanced flexibility.
Is this jacket suitable for all seasons?
The jacket includes a removable thermal liner, making it adaptable for cooler conditions. Without the liner, it is suitable for warmer weather, though it is a leather garment.
What kind of protection does the Avro 5 offer?
It comes equipped with standard composite protectors on the elbows and shoulders, offering good impact resistance. It is also designed to accommodate a back protector (sold separately).
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the specific Dainese size guide for the Avro 5 jacket. Proper sizing is critical for both comfort and the effectiveness of the protective features. Measurements like chest, waist, and arm length are usually key indicators.
Can the thermal liner be worn separately?
Yes, the removable thermal liner is designed to be used independently as a light insulating layer off the motorcycle.
What is the primary intended use for this jacket?
The Dainese Avro 5 is inspired by MotoGP™ suits and is ideal for sport riding, track days, and spirited road use where a combination of protection, mobility, and a sporty fit is desired.
How should I clean and maintain the leather?
Clean the leather with a damp cloth or a dedicated leather cleaner. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and protected. Always store it properly to maintain its condition.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth to loosen it.
Thermal liner is difficult to attach/remove
Ensure the jacket is laid flat and the liner is correctly aligned with the internal attachment points (zippers and snaps). Avoid forcing the components; check for any obstructions.
Leather appears dry or cracked
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to the affected areas and the entire jacket. Regular conditioning is key to preventing this.
Jacket feels too tight or restrictive
Check if the waist adjustments are properly set. If the tightness is in the arms or shoulders, ensure you have selected the correct size and consider if the thermal liner is contributing to the snugness.
