The new 100% Made in Italy gloves, in which racing heritage becomes a style experience
SPIDI releases Race One, the 100% Made in Italy gloves produced in the Safety Lab, the in-house laboratory where the first ever inclined motorcycle glove was created in 1977, designed according to the anatomy of the hand. A place that has always been dedicated to innovation, where today technologies for MotoGP – such as electronic airbag -, are developed, together with collaborations with the most influential streetwear brands in the world.
With Race One, heritage racing becomes aesthetic exploration. These gloves, in fact, reinterpret the racing DNA of the Brand, which has been partnering with two-wheel champions since the Seventies, and combine it with the stylistic research that distinguishes SPIDI in the world of motorsports.
Technologies have changed in 45 years, but the inspiration from which Race One was born is always the same. From the SPIDI headquarters located in Sarego-Italy you can indeed enjoy an ambitious perspective on the Alps which, majestic, invite you to face ever greater challenges, through increasingly ambitious projects.
To translate into reality, however, inspiration must meet the perfect materials. SPIDI relies only on the best know-how in leather processing, which is an art in the Chiampo valley. It is in fact this Italian region where all best leathers for technical gloves come from. While in the same area, craftsmanship meets high-tech innovation to print the studs which, once incorporated into the gloves, deliver comfort in wearability and maximum protection in the event of a crash.
In the Sarego workshop, the worlds of racing and fashion merge inextricably into a unique goal: Race One. Innovation is the soul of this place that changed the history of motorcycling with its prototypes, including the first anatomical motorcycle gloves (1977), the first motorcycle jeans (1988), the first jacket with integrated airbag (1998), the first rider cooling device (2004) and the first anti-smog riding jacket (2019). Milestones of motorcycle gear, but also opportunities to test advanced technologies from which, for example, applications for the medical sector were born.
The colors of Race One are two, like its souls: black and white. The elongated lines reinterpret the concept of speed, recalling the acceleration and forces that these gloves are designed to challenge. Even the protectors placed on the glove are in balance between performance and style: obtained through direct injection and designed to limit abrasion in the event of a slide, with their design they become distinctive elements.
Craftsmanship and high-tech, racing and fashion, performance and comfort. In Race One contrasts coexist and strengthen the identity of the glove, giving life to a unique object, destined to leave its mark.

ICONIC STYLES SHOW YOUR ATTITUDE
Alpinestars has been redefining the style of motorsports ever since the company was established in 1963. For over 60 years, the iconic Alpinestars logo has been representing quality, innovation, and passion.
Alpinestars is pleased to present the all-new Supertech R10 Road Racing Helmets. The result of over 10 years of intensive study, development, and testing, the goal of the Supertech family of helmets is to create the most advanced, protective, and performance-enhancing helmets possible for racers and riders worldwide.
After years of research, development, and testing by Alpinestars’ Helmet Product Development Department including MotoGP legend Andrea Dovizioso, today sees Alpinestars launching the S-R10 Road Racing Helmet. With the S-R10, the focus of the design was to ensure the highest level of performance, particularly when it comes to protection and providing a new level of safety. Additionally, the S-R10 Helmet has been engineered to provide the perfect blend of excellent ventilation, unsurpassed comfort, and the lightest weight possible, without compromising on any other front. Another crucial element unique to the S-R10’s design and development is the helmet’s advanced aerodynamics, achieved through countless sessions in the wind tunnel focused on reducing drag and providing optimal aerodynamic stability. This benefits performance on track, and greatly improves comfort for long rides on the road.
The Alpinestars Supertech R10 Helmet will be available in 6 sizes – XS through 2XL – and in both solid and graphic colorways. Solid colors will include: black carbon matte and glossy, white glossy, and matte black. In addition, Alpinestars is launching two graphics with two colorways each. The racing-inspired TEAM graphic, available in black carbon/red/white glossy, and black carbon/red fluo/dark blue matte, and the minimalistic and heritage ELEMENT graphic, available in black carbon/bright red/white glossy, and black carbon/silver/black glossy.
The S-R10 Helmets will be available for purchase at authorized Alpinestars dealers and distributors, with a limited number available on alpinestars.com starting at 6 pm CET / 9 am PST, on January 30th. The Supertech R10 helmet full-line is going to be available in the United States and Europe in March, with limited online availability and in select North American retailers starting today. The S-R10 will also be available in Asia, with a dedicated Asia fit in the second part of 2024.

All helmets include both clear and dark smoke visors, tear-offs set, Pinlock® lens, chin curtain, and wind and breath deflectors. Accessories for the Element and Team helmets can be stored comfortably in the paddock helmet bag provided with the S-R10.
SUPERTECH R10 HELMET TECHNICAL FEATURES OUTER SHELL CARBON SHELL CONSTRUCTION MULTI-LAYER COMPOSITE DISPERSES ENERGY IN IMPACTS
Homologated to ECE 22.06, DOT, and FIM standards, the Supertech R10’s shell construction utilizes a highly advanced molding technology with a multi-composite combination featuring a 3K high-density carbon outer layer, a uni-directional carbon composite layer, an aramid fiber layer, and a fiberglass layer.
The 3K high-density carbon outer layer provides excellent strength and efficiency of energy dissipation over the shell. The uni-directional (UD) carbon composite layer provides significantly greater radial strength around the shell, preventing compression, but allowing controlled deflection for reducing transmitted impact energy, while the aramid fiber plus fiberglass layers provide critical penetration protection.
This layered composite combination created by bonding everything together with an advanced epoxy resin already applied on the pre-preg fiber, perfectly controls the ideal proportion of resin versus fiber to maximize strength, mechanical performance, and lightweight. The combination of material layers provides improved energy management, as well as limited outer shell deflection, making the energy spread wider and better absorbed by the EPS liner.
The S-R10’s unique shell construction results in extremely effective impact protection. With a fully equipped in-house helmet testing facility within Alpinestars’ state-of-the-art Research and Development center, the company has carried out an exhaustive impact research program, where research and development efforts have shown the S-R10 helmet returning linear and oblique impact performance results which far exceed current ECE 22.06 helmet regulation standard limits. For direct linear impacts, which are impacts at a 90-degree angle between the helmet and an object, the S-R10 surpasses the standard by an average magnitude of 37%. And for rotational acceleration and oblique impact performance, where impact energy comes from an angle other than a linear 90-degree, or right-angle straight impact, the S-R10 exceeds the standard by 65%.
INNER SHELL THE S-R10’S INNER SHELL IS MADE FROM EPS IN DIFFERENT DENSITIES
The S-R10 Helmet has four inner shells just like the outer shell, and is available in four anatomical sizes. The S-R10’s construction is optimized to ensure riders have the correct fit, which not only improves comfort and reduces overall weight but most importantly, improves the effectiveness of the helmet in an impact. Underneath the helmet’s outer shell is an eight-piece multi-density EPS liner, with six specific densities that are strategically positioned in different zones to ensure excellent energy absorption from impact forces dissipated over the outer shell, as well as a close and comfortable fit. The EPS liner, just like the outer shell, has its own unique dimension for each helmet size, further tailoring the helmet’s performance and fit when it comes to protection and comfort.
LINEAR AND OBLIQUE FORCE MANAGEMENT
The EPS inner surface is smooth, creating an optimized, low-friction area, for superior oblique impact management. When it comes to other types of helmet testing, the best helmets are those that provide protection against rotational, as well as oblique and linear impact forces.
To help fight and mitigate those rotational, oblique, and linear impact forces, Alpinestars has designed a low-friction surface on the inner surface of the EPS liner. The inner surface is polished to be incredibly smooth, and then specially coated to reduce friction even further, allowing the comfort liner to move against the EPS. The result is increased rotational and oblique and linear force management, allowing the rider’s head to move independently inside of the helmet, or vice-versa, which can significantly reduce the amount of force transmitted to the head, neck, brain, and spine from an oblique impact, while simultaneously reducing the possibility of a concussion. To recap, specific rotational impact protection is provided by the combination of the internal shape and the specific coating of the EPS liner, coupled with the specially developed surface in the comfort liner. This patented technology reduces rotational acceleration transmitted to the rider’s head.
A-HEAD FITMENT SYSTEM AND CUSTOMIZED FIT
Adding to the personalization and custom, tailor-made fit of the S-R10, is the helmet’s unique and patented A-Head Fitment System. The A-Head System allows the helmet to be tuned exactly to the rider’s preference by having the ability to adjust both the height and angle at which the helmet sits on the head. The EPS is fitted with the A-Head Fitment System that allows for an ultra-specific setup that can be adapted to how deep the rider’s head sits in the helmet, as well as how far forward or backward the helmet is tilted.
To provide riders with the ability to further tailor the SR10’s fit to better suit a wide variety of different head shapes and sizes, Alpinestars is offering a variety of spare parts in a vast range of sizes giving motorcyclists the ability to change and swap out the cheek pads, crown pad, and top pad with a selection of both thinner and thicker options, to truly customize the helmet’s comfort for a perfect fit. With the S-R10’s various inner comfort liner options, plus the unique and patented A-Head Fitment System, there are virtually countless inner fitment configurations to meet the fit and performance needs of all riders.
AERODYNAMICS DEVELOPED WITH CFD SIMULATIONS, VALIDATED IN THE WIND TUNNEL AND ON TRACK, THE S-R10 HELMET IS OPTIMIZED FOR LOW DRAG PERFORMANCE AND MAXIMUM AERODYNAMIC STABILITY
Designed and developed for professional MotoGP athletes where going faster and being protected is the goal. By minimizing drag and ensuring optimal aerodynamic stability, air management outside and inside of the helmet, and a comfortable, customizable fit, the S-R10 Helmet ensures the overall experience in racing and sport riding is fit for champions.
The S-R10 has been developed in the full-scale wind tunnel since the beginning of its development. Aerodynamic targets for the coefficient of drag in different head positions, as well as stability at different angles were a primary goal in the helmet shape development, first extensively developed with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), then validated in the full-scale wind tunnel, and finally on track. The result is a helmet that achieves the lowest level of drag, and the highest level of aerodynamic stability at high speed compared to any other race helmet that we have tested in the wind gallery. This has made the S-R10 already the helmet of choice by factory MotoGP teams for its top aerodynamic performance. Road riders will likely benefit from this too, with reduced strain on their necks at high speed and low levels of wind noise.
The S-R10 Helmet’s aerodynamic spoilers are fitted with an Alpinestars patented release system, with elastic joints that help the spoiler detach from the helmet shell if it is subjected to a significant impact, no matter what the angle, to reduce potential rotational energy.
The helmet also comes with lateral winglets to further support the S-R10’s stability and improve aerodynamic drag. In addition, the helmet visor has turbulators to improve aero-acoustic performance. As a result, compared to the aerodynamic performance of the helmet fitted with the standard road spoiler, the S-R10 itself is already the top-performing, aerodynamic helmet we have tested, and with the configuration of the race spoiler and the aero winglets together, Alpinestars Helmet Development team have achieved a reduction in drag for the helmet of an additional 4.54%.
VENTILATION THE SUPERTECH R10 HELMET CONTAINS ELEVEN VENTILATION POINTS
When it comes to ventilation and breathability, there are 11 ventilation ports, not including the eyeport, with 7 intakes including 3 in the chinguard and 4 on the top of the helmet, plus 4 exhausts, with 2 lateral ports on the chin bar, and 2 on the top rear of the helmet. These ventilation ports integrate directly with the helmet’s shell with a series of air ducts through the inner EPS liner. With the S-R10, airflow comes in through the ports, as well as actively circulates over and around the rider’s head through a series of channels, and then gets extracted out the back of the helmet.
The Top Vent features a large central slider that channels air down to the top of the head for better comfort, which when open, has vents for hot air extraction from the rider’s forehead. Under the rear spoiler, there are two extractor vents for effective hot air exhausting. The Chin Vents are formed by two openings located at the front of the helmet at the sides of the shield lock mechanism, where each flap has a tab in the corner, which is used to open or close the vent. Air entering from this point is channeled towards the inner side of the shields, creating a laminated flow of air that effectively prevents fogging and misting. In addition, the Chin Bar Vents are used to extract humid air to the outside of the helmet.
SHIELD FEATURES THE SHIELD IS DESIGNED FOR MAXIMUM VISION: 220° OF LATERAL VISION AND 57° OF VERTICAL VISION
The shield mechanism is fitted with metal lock levers to to prevent unwanted shield detachment during impacts and/or crashes, which are locked in the closed position by a front metal hook. The cinematic movement is engineered to perfectly seal the visor against the shell’s rubber window trim. The shield is engineered with an impressive wide lowered eyeport on the sides for enhanced peripheral vision, offering 220-degrees of lateral and 57-degrees of vertical visibility and providing a maximized field of view in the riding position and providing great rider comfort.
Additionally, the visor itself can be easily changed or removed thanks to its secure and toolless quick-release system. The S-R10 is fitted with an ECE 22.06 Homologated Optical Class 1 Shield, 3mm in thickness, and coated with an anti-scratch and anti-fog treatment. The shield is equipped with internal pins to accommodate a Pinlock® 120XLT – 100 % MaxVisionTM lens and external pins to accommodate tear-offs.
REMOVABLE PREMIUM LINING REMOVABLE AND WASHABLE, FEATURING FABRICS WITH ANTI-MICROBIAL TREATMENTS
The S-R10 has eight individual internal parts consisting of the crown pad, top pad, cheek pads, chin curtain, chin strap, ear pads, wind deflector, and breath deflector.
Crown Pad: The crown pad and the neck pad are elastically connected, for enhanced oblique impact management and interface with the smooth surface of the inner EPS liner. The crown pad’s construction is based on four panels (front, sides, rear), for an optimized fit with the proper foam thickness.
Top Pad: The top pad is removable and height adjustable via the A-Head Fitment System.
Cheek Pads: The cheek pads are fitted with premium, 3D foam, and fabrics, offering comfort and breathability. The cheek pads feature an ERS emergency extraction system, allowing the side cheek padding to be easily removed by trained medical professionals and they also have a channel for the installation of a hydration hose.
Chin Curtain: A chin curtain is available inside the box to provide further protection against air entering the helmet from below.
Ear Pads: Ear pads are fixed under each cheek pad and help to improve comfort by reducing the aerodynamic noise, they are removable allowing for the installation of a communication system in the helmet.
Wind and Breath Deflectors: The wind and breath deflectors are included to improve aerodynamic behavior and humid air flow, respectively.
CHIN BAR PROFILE
Another outer shell design protection feature is the chin bar’s profile, where the base area has been specifically sculpted to give a relief section. The bottom profile is raised to clear the collarbone, and instead of the hard carbon shell coming into potential contact with the collarbone, the S-R10 has a softer EPP (expanded Polypropylene) liner which extends beyond the helmet shell itself and is covered by a more flexible rubber compound. This chin bar design provides a reduced chance of any sort of collarbone injury, one of the more common injuries in motorcycling.
WEIGHT
And finally, when it comes to weight, the ECE / DOT / FIM certified Supertech R10 helmet tips the scales at an impressive 1,540 grams for a size medium, or 3.4 pounds, providing the S-R10 with an extremely high performance to protection to weight ratio.

Here too, the maxim holds true for BMW Motorrad: To make the existing even better and at the same time to develop new, innovative solutions for carefree riding pleasure. The new BMW Motorrad Clothing Collection 2024 offers a total of 28 new products in the areas of #PluggedToLife, #RideAndShare, #SpiritOfGS, #NeverStopChallenging and #Soulfuel.
Sao Paulo Unisex Matter
#PluggedToLife: Stylish rider wear with high everyday utility.
With the #PluggedToLife Collection, BMW Motorrad offers practical and stylish products that are ideal for everyday motorcycling, but also absolutely suitable for everyday use when you get off your bike. Whether you’re strolling through the city, shopping or sitting in a café.
For the coming season, the Sao Paulo helmet is available in the new colours Matter and Nucleus. With a long visor and integrated sun visor, it is a fashionable, comfortable and safe companion for the city and urban areas.
The London trousers are also available in new colours – light grey and blue. They also look great off the bike with a contemporary 5-pocket look. NP-Flex 3D protectors at the knees offer good shock absorption without compromising comfort.
Seoul GORE-TEX sneakers
Available in khaki for the next motorcycle season, the Seoul GORE-TEX sneakers are as stylish as they are practical. The GORE-TEX membrane reliably protects against wind and water, while the oil and fuel-resistant sole and the integrated heel and ankle protection ensure a high level of safety. The concealed zip on the inside makes putting them on and taking them off fast and easy.
#RideAndShare: Casual roadster and touring lifestyle.
Brand new to the range is the Swartberg AIR Jacket with a sporty blouson cut, the perfect companion for summer outings. The outer material is made of abrasion-resistant polyamide and provides long-lasting ventilation. As a result, this fashionable jacket can also be used in very warm weather.
The Gavia AIR boots are also new. They are made from a particularly breathable fabric, and the special lining and outer materials ensure high levels of air permeability. This makes them ideal for touring in warm temperatures. The lightweight midsole and high-grip Vibram outsole also give them a sneaker-like feel when walking around town.
The System 7 Carbon EVO folding helmet offers maximum comfort and safety. The
full-carbon helmet shell makes it extremely light and offers ultimate impact protection. The Multi-directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) reduces the rotational movement of the head in the event of an impact, minimising the risk of injury. It is available in new colours and decors for the coming season.
Aravis Air Women Blue/Grey
The new blue-grey colour of the Aravis AIR jacket is a breath of fresh air for the hot phases of the riding season. Thanks to large mesh and stretch inserts, it offers not only optimum freedom of movement, but also pleasant air circulation. Particularly practical: Two integrated shoulder straps allow the jacket to be worn on the back like a rucksack when not on the bike. The comfortable, breathable and dirt and water-repellent outer fabric is also available in matching colours for the Aravis AIR trousers.
Aravis Air Women Blue/Grey
The Gerlos trousers are available in a new colour scheme. They offer a comfortable leisure look that is perfect for the summer and transitional seasons. The abrasion-resistant trousers can be made windproof and waterproof with a breathable insert if required. They also have removable and adjustable NPL protectors at the knees and NP3 protectors at the hips.
For those who can’t wait for their next two-wheeled adventure on and off the road, the new products in the #SpiritOfGS collection are real must-haves when it comes to functional clothing. For example, the three-piece GS Karakum GORE-TEX jacket in a new colour scheme. It offers maximum sportiness, ready for any ride, even off-road: With three layers and a GORE-TEX outsert, it covers all conditions from warm to cold. The two-piece GS Karakum GORE-TEX trousers also meet the highest demands.
GS Rallye GORE-TEX Men Red/white
The rugged GS Puna GORE-TEX jacket is also available in new colours for the coming season. With this jacket, motorcycle fans will be well equipped for off-road riding. The outer shell is made from a high-strength polyamide/cotton blend, and areas most at risk when falling are reinforced with a half-tone PU coating with ceramic particles. GORE-TEX Z-Liner construction keeps the jacket waterproof and breathable. There are also matching GS Puna GORE-TEX trousers. Featuring GORE-TEX Z-Liner construction, it is waterproof and breathable, with elasticated inserts for added mobility and a range of adjustment options for a better fit.
Available in new colours for the 2024 GS Rallye GORE-TEX Jacket, this well-ventilated jacket’s waterproof GORE-TEX outsert protects against wind, bad weather and dirt. The highly abrasion-resistant polyamide-cotton material, together with NP3 joint protectors, ensure a high level of safety. The modern look is complemented by practical details such as numerous inside and outside pockets. In addition, the highly ventilated GS Rallye GORE-TEX trousers in a new colour design with a waterproof GORE-TEX outsert offer the best protection against wind, bad weather and dirt.
Finally, the waterproof VentureGrip Pro GORE-TEX boot offers rugged reliability, safety and comfort for both touring and enduro use. The all-rounder is designed for everyday use and features a high-grip, highly durable, oil and fuel resistant Vibram outsole. A shin plate and three adjustable aluminium buckles stabilise the precision-fit construction.
The #NeverStopChallenging collection caters for everyone from sporty motorcyclists to real race track cracks. The M Pro Race GORE-TEX boot is new for 2024. It meets the highest performance requirements and features large hard plastic protective elements. Lateral, replaceable magnesium sliders on the heel and toe of the boot prevent injuries and make the boots very durable.
The sporty Downforce jacket comes in a new colour. It can be used for both commuting and leisure riding from spring to autumn.
The KnitRace sneakers combine modern design and motorcycling material. They feature 3D knit technology for breathable comfort. The stylish sneakers are certified as motorcycle boots (level 1) thanks to shift lever protection and safety features such as integrated ankle protection and 3D heel protection. The M colour print on the heel is a visual highlight.
The ProRace gloves will also be available in a new colour next season. They are ideal for sporty riders who value agility, safety and grip when riding fast.
#SoulFuel: Designed for the pure passion of riding.
Spandau jacket
The Spandau jacket is brand new for 2024. It is made from abrasion-resistant denim fabric. It combines maximum safety and function with a classic look thanks to discreet protectors. The jacket has four outer pockets and three inner pockets. It can be attached to the BMW Motorrad trousers via a connecting zip.
The Westend leather jacket is also new for next year. It combines classic design with outstanding functionality and safety. The jacket is made from approx. 1.2 mm thick and LWG-certified cowhide leather. This makes it particularly comfortable to wear and a visual highlight in its own right. Features such as the full-length metal zip fastener with storm flap, high-quality inner lining, three closable outer pockets and three inner pockets increase functionality. For added safety, the leather also conceals advanced NP-Flex protectors on the shoulders and elbows, which are barely noticeable and can reduce the risk of injury by providing maximum comfort and good shock absorption. An NPL back protector can also be retrofitted. Last but not least, the leather jacket can be attached to BMW Motorrad trousers with a 40 cm wide connecting zip.
Westend leather jacket
The Moosach trousers are also new for 2024. They are made from abrasion-resistant denim fabric. They stylishly combine safety and functionality with a classic look thanks to their discreet protection. The 5-pocket style trousers are lined at the thighs and can also be used for everyday wear. For added safety, there are removable NP-Flex protectors at the knees and hip.
The Treptow GORE-TEX laced boot for the 2024 motorcycle year is also new. It offers high functionality and a classic look. The sewn-in pull loop at the end of the bootleg section makes them particularly easy to put on. The boot is wind and waterproof thanks to the GORE-TEX membrane and the leather/canvas mix. Safety is also at the forefront of the boot’s design. In addition to the NP-Flex ankle protectors, the laced boots are equipped with sturdy toe and heel caps, as well as shift reinforcement. There is also a special inner lining for optimum temperature regulation. The mid-high shaft and the profiled Vibram outsole on the men’s model ensure perfect grip on the foot rests. The Vibram outsole is resistant to oil and petrol and also provides excellent grip and comfort. The classic Treptow GORE-TEX laced boots not only look great on a motorcycle, they can also be stylishly combined with jeans and a leather jacket.
Schwabing jacket
Finally, the Schwabing jacket, with its heritage look, is a revival of a classic in a new design for 2024. The traditional double stripes on the sleeves are a real eye-catcher. Underneath the high-quality cowhide leather, NP-Flex protectors on the shoulders and elbows keep you safe, while two outside pockets and three inside pockets provide plenty of storage space.
REV’IT! does things just a little differently than usual with the Paramount GTX. Created as an engineering statement, this one-piece, fully waterproof Adventure Touring suit combines the best in water- and weather-resistance technology with an unconventional design.
Not forgetting, of course, the benefits of ride comfort and overall protection against the elements. So you can ride whenever and wherever you want. Discover the Paramount GTX now at your official REV’IT! dealer and on www.revitsport.com. Pricing and sizing details below
Step in, zip up, take off
Constructed from extremely durable and waterproof 3L GORE-TEX, and technology carried over from the world of drysuit diving, the Paramount GTX shields riders from all elements. Regardless of where, when, and whatever the conditions. You simply open the Paramount GTX one-piece suit from collar-to-bottom-hem with the TIZIP® MasterSeal full-length zipper, then step in – with motorcycles boots or shoes on – zip up, and take off.
Ride on in total comfort
By design and by construction, the Paramount GTX wears like an all-encompassing, waterproof oversuit. Meaning you can wear the one piece over dedicated base and mid layers, or simply put it on over your everyday attire. The 100% weatherproof outer shell and the TIZIP® MasterSeal zipper keep out precipitation, while the patented VCS|AquaDefence waterproof ventilation and several tactically positioned ventilation zippers allow riders to adjust to all conditions imaginable. That means the Paramount GTX will not just take riders comfortably through the wet and bad, but warmer weather just as well.
Unprecedented range of motion
The advantages of the design transcend mere weatherproofing. By eliminating the gap between jacket and pants – or overlap of materials – the one-piece Paramount GTX suit offers remarkable riding comfort, even over longer distances. This is because the entire suit is suspended from the shoulders only, without clinging to the hips, resulting in unprecedented on-bike range of motion.
Touring outfit like never before
Engineered to put on and be gone, the Paramount GTX one-piece suit is equipped with top-tier protection all around. From the CE-level 2 protectors on the back, shoulders, elbows, and knees, to REV’IT!’s almost imperceptible CE-level 1 SEESMART armor on the hips; all the protective elements are position adjustable to your preference. Add in the many stretch elements and fit adjustability, specific short and longer sizes, the REV’IT! Paramount GTX offers a fully weatherproof and extremely comfortable touring outfit like never before. PARAMOUNT GTX ONE PIECE

Heated mid-layer combines Micro Carbon Heating with purpose-made UltraFlex fabric.
Relief from even the worst winter chill is now within reach of year-round riders, thanks to the latest innovation from Keis – the J601RP UltraFlex Heated Jacket.
This mid-layer garment combines in-house developed fabric technology and their proven Micro Carbon Heat elements, for maximum comfort and heating efficiency.
Keis-Developed UltraFlex Technology
The Jacket is made from a unique material called UltraFlex. Developed by Keis, UltraFlex fulfils the three most important elements a heated motorcycle mid-layer must have:
For maximum efficiency, heated clothing needs to be pressed gently against the body – too tight and it can cause sores, too loose and it is less effective;
Motorcycle mid-layers need to be flexible, so they don’t restrict movement on the bike or create tight spots, affecting blood flow;
The fabric should not be bulky, so it takes up minimal space under riding jackets.
UltraFlex is made from a combination of 85% Chinlon and 15% Spandex. Commonly used in activewear, Chinlon is a synthetic, lightweight material known for its strength and durability. It also has a smooth, soft texture and can wick away moisture, making it an ideal choice for a motorcycle mid-layer.
Adding Spandex creates exceptional elasticity, and provides a generous four-way stretch. It helps mould the garment to the wearer’s body for a snug fit, without restricting movement.
Tried and Tested Heat Technology
Tried and tested Micro Carbon Fibre heating panels deliver consistent warmth without the weight and bulk often associated with heated garments.
Panels on the front, back and sleeves deliver infrared heat to the body’s core. Additional sections in the collar provide welcome relief to the neck, which is often left exposed to the cold in the gap between helmet and riding jacket.
The panels are washable and are so reliable that Keis offers a lifetime warranty on them.
Power on Tap
The Keis UltraFlex Jacket produces 65W of heating power. The level of heat it delivers is set using a Keis Heavy Duty Controller worth £38, which for a limited time comes free with the J601RP.
Supplied with everything needed to run directly from a motorcycle or scooter’s 12v battery, current draw is low (5.4A), so it won’t overload the charging system. Should the rider prefer, it can also be powered via the Keis Cigarette Lighter/DIN Power Supply Lead (an optional accessory).
Available in unisex sizes 2XS-3XL, the Keis J601RP UltraFlex Heated Jacketretails for £220 (including VAT). Alongside the lifetime warranty on the heating elements, the jacket itself is also covered by a two-year warranty.
DIRT Series – Seek the authentic in the second chapter of REV’IT!’s Adventure Off-Road collection.
REV’IT! expands the DIRT Series with two new Adventure Off-Road jackets, an upgraded waterproof smock, ventilated adventure pants, and a pair of weather-resistant gloves. REV’IT!’s signature Adventure Off-Road collection of modular designs that complement each other both practically and aesthetically is also further supplemented with new color options for a few existing DIRT Series styles.
Mix and Match
With the new Component 2 H2O and Continent jackets, the Blackwater 2 H2O smock, Territory pants, and Continent gloves, REV’IT!’s extensive and distinctive Adventure Off-Road collection receives a number of interesting new additions. The DIRT Series is a collection of several purposeful off-road-oriented garments that are engineered to mix and match – to assemble the ideal outfit of choice to one’s own preferences, riding style, and personal clothing taste.
Refined design and practical execution
The purposeful and lightweight products in the DIRT Series are visibly inspired by the outdoor scene, with refined, modern design and practical execution. Notable examples include the stylish, new waterproof Component 2 H2O jacket and the striking Blackwater 2 H2O smock, as well as the ventilated version of the existing Peninsula pants; the Territory – for when the trails heat up.
Two styles in one
A totally new proposition is the Continent jacket. Made with both softshell material and durable CORDURA® ripstop, the Continent offers two styles in one. By unzipping the long sleeves, the windproof jacket quickly transforms into a sleeveless off-road vest. An ideal match for off-road rides where ever-changing conditions are present.
New color options
In addition to the new products, this season’s DIRT Series collection also gets new color options for the Territory jacket, which is now available in black, a new aubergine version of the Sierra jersey, and a similarly stylish brown color as the new Component 2 H2O jacket for the Continent pants.
Get the most out of the collection
The REV’IT! DIRT Series comes equipped with CE-level 1 SEEMART armor as standard in the most important impact zones. But to get the most out of the collection – especially off-road – wear the DIRT Series garments in combination with REV’IT!’s own Proteus protection jacket and Scram knee protectors.

Weise Outlast® Sirius 2.0 Gloves now with KP1 knuckle protection.
Beat winter hands-down with new and improved Weise Outlast® Sirius 2.0 Gloves, which now feature KP1 rated knuckle protection and space-age temperature regulation, for the ultimate in cold weather comfort.
CE I-KP Certified Protection
Made with a full grain leather and textile shell, Outlast® Sirius 2.0 Gloves have KP-1 rated knuckle protection and also come with a practical visor wipe and touchscreen compatibility.
Outlast® Climate Control
Inside, the Outlast® lining provides built-in climate control. This space-age material, originally developed for NASA, absorbs, stores and releases heat to actively regulate the body’s microclimate.
As the wearer’s hands warm up, the Outlast® lining absorbs the heat, keeping them cool and reducing the risk of perspiration. If the temperature drops, the heat is released to keep the hands warm.
This active control helps to reduce the heat-up/chill down cycle often experienced when riding in varying temperatures and conditions, keeping the wearer consistently comfortable.
mcTex™ and 3M™ Thinsulate
A mcTex™ waterproof and breathable membrane keeps out wind and rain, while allowing any perspiration to escape.
Additional insulation is provided by 3M™ Thinsulate G100 to the back of hand, and C40 at the palm.
mcFit™ Technology
The linings, membrane and outer shell are held firmly in place with the proven mcFit™ system, so there’s no uncomfortable stitching or seams and the liners won’t twist or pull free.
Weise Outlast® Sirius 2.0 come in men’s sizes S – 4XL and women’s XS – XL. Both versions retail at £129.99 including VAT. Like all Weise clothing, they’re covered by a two-year warranty.

If it’s adventure you’re after
REV’IT!’s all-new Echelon GTX outfit combines all the riding comfort to leave the comfort zone with a refreshing outdoor scene-inspired design and progressive color options. A careful mix of 2L and 3L GORE-TEX fabrics is used throughout to offer durable waterproofing as well as all the lightweight wearing comfort you could ever want if it’s adventure you’re after.
Form-meets-function design
The REV’IT! Echelon GTX jacket and Echelon GTX pants both sport a refined, minimalist design with clever features subtly woven into its GORE-TEX outer-shell material. Practical additions such the jacket’s top-tier, waterproof TIZIP® main zipper that hides an extra-large ventilation panel underlines the multi-season appeal of the outfit while its highly effective, stretch-enhancing elements are positioned to perfectly blend into the form-meets-function design.
Confidence, safety, and a touch of sophistication
With no risk of having to choose style over substance, the Echelon GTX outfit comes with a Class AA safety rating for both the jacket and the pants. The Echelon GTX ensemble also features REV’IT!’s proprietary CE-level 2 SEESOFT AIR back protector, CE-level 2 SEEFLEX armor at the shoulders, elbows, and knees, and CE-Level 1 SEESMART protection at the hips as standard. To ensure that you ride with confidence, safety, and a touch of sophistication—no matter where your adventures may lead.
The LS2 Serra Evo Ladies Jacket is an all-purpose jacket ready to take you from the daily commute to a long tour. Suitable for most weather conditions, it is waterproof, breathable and well-fitted.
The LS2 Serra Evo Ladies jacket is well fitted to a woman’s shape and suitable for a variety of motorcycling rides.
Earlier in the year (June), I had a trip to Norway and this time it was a different style of riding. I knew there would be plenty of off-roading to do and wanted a jacket that would be suitable for any weather without having to stop to adjust anything. LS2 Serra Evo Jacket fitted the requirement. It is waterproof and breathable with vents for warmer days. It also comes with a thermal lining but I was hoping that won’t be necessary (it wasn’t).
What I really like about the jacket is the flattering fit for a lady. With several adjustments available, it really follows the body shape beautifully for a look that is safe and attractive.
