FAQs
What material is the Dainese Avro 5 Textile Jacket made of?
The jacket is primarily constructed from durable textile materials, often including nylon and polyester blends, designed for abrasion resistance and comfort.
Can I wear this jacket in the rain?
This jacket is designed for general riding conditions and offers some resistance to light rain. For heavy downpours, it is recommended to wear a separate waterproof outer layer.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to Dainese's sizing chart, paying close attention to the waist measurement (UK size 48 in this specific product description). It's recommended to measure yourself and compare with the chart. Trying the jacket on, if possible, is ideal.
Are chest and back protectors included?
No, the jacket comes with integrated composite protectors at the shoulders and elbows. Pockets are provided for optional, separately purchased chest and back protectors.
How do I clean the jacket?
It is recommended to hand wash the jacket in cold water with mild soap and air dry it. Always check the specific care label inside the jacket for detailed instructions. Remove protectors before cleaning.
What is the purpose of the PU plates?
The Polyurethane (PU) plates are incorporated into the jacket's design to enhance abrasion resistance in key impact zones and help distribute impact forces.
Can the thermal liner be worn separately?
The detachable thermal liner is designed to be worn inside the jacket and is not intended for separate wear as a standalone garment.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too warm
Remove the detachable thermal liner. Open the ventilation zippers on the chest and arms to increase airflow.
Jacket feels too cold
Ensure the detachable thermal liner is securely zipped in. Close all ventilation zippers. Consider wearing additional thermal layers underneath.
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper while pulling the fabric taut. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Fit is loose around the waist
Use the adjustable Velcro straps at the waist to tighten the fit. Ensure the jacket is the correct size for your body measurements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Dainese Avro 5 Textile Jacket comes ready to wear. To set up for different conditions, first ensure the jacket is clean. If using the detachable thermal liner, it can be easily zipped into place inside the main jacket. Ensure all zippers and Velcro fastenings are secure.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed to accommodate optional Dainese chest protectors (e.g., Pro-Armor Chest) and back protectors (e.g., G1 or G2). Refer to the Dainese website or product manual for specific compatible protector models. It is designed for male riders and the sizing is based on UK waist measurements.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Hand wash the jacket in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. The detachable liner can often be machine washed on a gentle cycle, but always check the care label.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture. Hang it on a wide, padded hanger to maintain its shape.
- Protector Maintenance: Remove composite protectors before cleaning. Inspect them regularly for signs of damage or wear. Replace if compromised.
