Full details
The Dainese Avro 5 Leather Jacket is designed for adult male riders seeking advanced protection and comfort. Its key benefit lies in the premium leather construction combined with composite protectors and PU plates for superior impact resistance.

FAQs
How do I clean the leather exterior of the Dainese Avro 5 jacket?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and never submerge the jacket in water. Always allow it to air dry away from direct heat.
Can I wear this jacket in the rain?
While the leather offers some water resistance, this jacket is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry or light rain conditions. For heavy rain, consider a dedicated rain suit or a waterproof jacket.
What type of protectors are included?
The jacket comes standard with composite protectors in the shoulders and elbows. Pockets are available for optional Dainese chest and back protectors (sold separately).
How do I attach the detachable lining?
The lining attaches using an internal zipper system. Align the lining's zipper with the corresponding zipper on the inside of the jacket and zip them together. Secure any additional snap closures if present.
What is the recommended way to store the jacket when not in use?
Store the jacket on a wide, sturdy hanger to maintain its shape. Keep it in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Is this jacket suitable for summer riding?
Yes, the ventilation zippers and the option to remove the lining make it suitable for warmer weather. However, on extremely hot days, the leather material may still retain heat.
What is the warranty period for this jacket?
Please refer to the official Dainese warranty information for the specific period and terms applicable to your region. Typically, manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials and workmanship.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff or restrictive
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the jacket for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Condition the leather with a suitable product to soften it.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the slider. If it remains stuck, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Detachable lining is difficult to remove or install
Ensure the jacket is laid flat and the lining's zipper is aligned correctly with the jacket's interior zipper. Pull the lining's zipper firmly and smoothly. Check for any obstructions.
Ventilation zippers do not open/close smoothly
Check for debris or fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Clean the teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax.
