Hotpants from Keis

Ditch bulky underlayers and keep legs cosy, even on the chilliest rides, with the new T103RP Heated Trousers from Keis.

They’re ideal for riders of naked bikes and cruisers, which offer little protection for the legs, and for pillions who don’t move around as much as the rider, often sitting high up and exposed to wind chill.

Designed to be worn under riding trousers, the Keis heated trousers are made from a lightweight and breathable soft shell fabric – with an elasticated waist – so they fit comfortably without restricting movement.

When the temperature drops strategically positioned heated panels with Micro Alloy Element Technology provide instant warmth – no more feeling like legs won’t work when stopping at junctions or for fuel etc.

There’s a connection flap built-in for adding a Standard or Bluetooth Keis Power Controller – optional extras, enabling the user to change the heat setting, and to switch on and off.

Power for the T103RP can come directly from the bike’s 12V battery – via the power lead supplied – or they can be connected to a Keis heated jacket, bodywarmer or vest, for all-over warmth. The current Draw is a modest 3.25A and typical power is a substantial 39W.

Keis T103RP Heated Trousers retail at £165- including VAT, come in sizes XS-3XL (UK 32”-44” waist) and come with all required wiring and easy-to-follow instructions.

They’re made from the highest quality materials and can be hand washed. Like all Keis garments, the heating elements are covered by a Lifetime Warranty for complete peace of mind.

New from Oxford: Dakar Dry2Dry Air 1.0

DAKAR AIR 1.0
DRY2DRY™ TEXTILE JACKET
The heat can be almost as brutal when crawling through town as when crossing the Sahara, so the Dakar Air jacket has been designed to keep you cool regardless. Huge, full-length mesh panels (front, rear and down the arms) provide welcome airflow even at low speeds.

Equally, rain can ruin any journey, so the Dakar also offers a very special waterproofing solution: a removable lightweight liner which is fully waterproof, highly breathable and made from stretch materials with a mesh inner, so you don’t even know it’s there.

And because you could be riding flat-out on rough desert roads or weaving through slippery city streets, this comfort makes no concession to safety.

As well as huge adjustability to ensure a perfect fit and 360˚ reflective detailing for night-time visibility, the chassis is built from Oxford’s toughest HD POLY. This is welded to reinforced overlays using hidden structure stitching to form a protective shell, which comfortably exceeds the CE AA standard.

Paris or Dakar… your choice.

FEATURED TECHNOLOGY
Designed for the sports-adventure rider who demands versatility from their summer gear, the Dakar’s highly ventilated HD Poly outer shell and fully removable Dry2Dry waterproof lining make it ideal for those days where weather can be predictably unpredictable. Comfortable, moisture-free riding is ensured by the innate breathability of Oxford’s Dry2Dry technology, while Active Construction throughout allows the wearer full freedom of movement.

  • WarmDry™ Thermal Tech
  • HD-POLY – high density polyester outer shell
  • Durable Overlays on the shoulders
  • Hidden structure stitching
  • Bar-tack reinforcement stitching
  • Water resistant coating to prevent wetting out of the shell material

NEW Keis Heated Puffer Jacket

The ultimate in winter luxury, Keis’ new J801 Heated Leisure Puffer Jacket insulates and heats for full-on comfort wherever you are – on your motorcycle, hiking in the hills, cycling, walking the dog or spectating at outdoor events.

Designed to be worn under a motorcycle jacket as a mid-layer, or as an outer garment for leisure pursuits, the luxurious high tech thermal puffer is filled with a generous layer of lightweight 3M Thinsulate™ featherless insulation, which traps body heat and allows moisture to escape.

Three levels of warmth are available – set via the fully integrated power controller on the left side chest panel – with lighting to indicate the selected power setting: Low (green), Medium (amber), and High (red).

Power comes from a portable Keis 2600mAh battery, which sits in its own dedicated pocket. It’s capable of providing up to 6 hours of warmth. The jacket of course comes complete with a Keis portable battery charger, for topping up from any standard UK 240V three-pin outlet.

Built to last, the Keis Puffer Jacket is constructed from the highest quality materials and can be hand washed. Like all Keis garments, the heating elements are covered by a Lifetime Warranty, for complete peace of mind.

The Keis J801 Heated Leisure Puffer Jacket comes in sizes S-L (UK 36″-44″ chest), with a portable battery pack and charger, priced at £260 including VAT.

Scrambler Ducati and RefrigiWear, the historic clothing brand created in New York in 1954, present a limited edition licensed collection that enhances the original, iconic and urban essence of both brands.

RefrigiWear x Scrambler Ducati, which comes about from a partnership between the two brands, presents a unisex capsule collection with a dual brand that combines the passion for two wheels with a fashion attitude, embracing the streetwear nature of RefrigiWear and the self-expression of Ducati Scrambler.

Presented for the first time in Florence at Pitti Uomo – among the most prestigious international fairs in the fashion-clothing sector – the spring / summer 2022 collection includes a bomber jacket, a windproof jacket with hood, a sweatshirt and two backpacks. All models are meticulously detailed and  characterized by the RefrigiWear x Scrambler Ducati mash-up logo.

The aesthetic impact of the garments is decisive and recognizable, the design stands out thanks to the dynamism of the pattern inspired by street culture. The predominant colours are ochre yellow or military green combined with black, colours that have always identified the two protagonists.

The extension of the licensed collaboration has already been confirmed for a line in the 2022 autumn / winter season, which will see two iconic RefrigiWear models combined with the creative and rebellious touch of Ducati Scrambler.

The collection will be available starting from spring in the RefrigiWear and Ducati sales networks, as well as on the Ducati online shop.

Keis Sock-it to Cold Feet

New for winter 2021/2022, Keis S302 Heated Socks keep toes toasty warm and can be worn on the bike or off it, the ultimate in winter luxury!

Feet are among the first bits of the body to feel the cold, because blood flow to the extremities is restricted when temperatures drop. Add in the wind chill factor on a moving motorcycle and you’ll need more than a thick pair of wooly socks to remedy the situation.

Made from a thin, lightweight and breathable soft-shell material, Keis Heated Socks are designed to be worn over a pair of normal socks, inside your regular riding footwear.

Each pair features Micro Alloy Element Technology, for instant warmth when it’s needed – relief on even the most miserable winter rides. Current draw is a modest 0.6Amps, which won’t tax the charging system on modern motorcycles.

They can be powered directly from the 12-Volt motorcycle battery, with the power lead supplied. Alternatively Y-leads – also in the box – enable the user to run power from a Keis Heated Jacket or Vest down each leg to the  Heated Socks.

An optional Light Duty Power Controller (not supplied) can be connected to the power lead for the S302 Heated Socks, enabling the user to change the heat setting from high to medium or low, and to switch on and off.

Keis S302 Heated Socks are available in UK shoe sizes 4-10+ (EU 37-44+) and are priced at £85 per pair including vat.

They are fully machine washable for season-long freshness and the heating elements enjoy a Lifetime Warranty, for complete peace of mind.

Ducati presents the new Apparel collection 2022

Performance Wear collection
Ducati presents the new Apparel collection 2022: style, functionality and safety to enjoy all the bikes in the Ducati range.

Ducati presents its new clothing collection for 2022, consisting of products suitable for all types of needs, designed to meet the requirements of all motorcycle enthusiasts.

Within the 2022 Apparel collection there are technical garments, conceived and intended to make riding Ducati motorcycles even more enjoyable and safer. These products are designed by the Centro Stile Ducati and made in collaboration with the best companies in the sector, with high quality materials that guarantee long life and good protection to the rider. In addition, there are more versatile products suitable for many situations, up to casual clothing, perfect to be worn in everyday life and while supporting the Ducati riders competing in the MotoGP and Superbike world championships.

The Ducati Performance Wear collection is divided into Racing lines dedicated to the track, Sport dedicated to sporty riding on the road, Touring for travel contexts and Urban for getting around town without compromising on the level of protection.

Ducati Corse Power helmet

Safety continues to be a key element for Ducati in the development of its product. One example is the new Ducati Corse Power helmet, in the Racing line. Designed by Drudi Performance on an Arai base this helmet is characterized by the outer shell in SNC2 (Structural Net Composite) fibre, which is highly resistant and has a smooth surface capable of dissipating energy for excellent impact protection. The patented inner shell, made of EPS with different densities and with variable compactness areas depending on the position, completes the safety features and allows the rider to enjoy the track to the fullest. The visor system gives a wide field of vision at any riding angle, while the ventilation is optimized for maximum stability and efficiency at high speeds.

Within the Sport line, there are two new garments that combine safety and comfort without sacrificing style. The Speed ​​Evo C2 leather jacket has an asymmetric design that gives a touch of sophistication and modernity to a distinctly sporty look. Freedom of movement and comfort are combined with CE certified safety equipment, which includes protections on shoulders and elbows, combined with plastic inserts on the shoulders and a predisposition for back and chest protectors. The zipper along the waist allows the jacket to be joined to the trousers.

The Ducati Corse Tex Summer C3 technical jacket, on the other hand, is specifically designed for hot-humid climates and for the summer season. It guarantees excellent thermal comfort even on the hottest days thanks to the removable windproof inner lining and the mix of mesh and light fabric that ensures excellent ventilation. The safety of the garment is confirmed by aluminium inserts on the shoulders, by composite protections on the elbows and by the predisposition for the insertion of the back protector.

In the Touring line, two outfits stand out which are the ideal travel companions to make every ride unforgettable. Both were designed by Aldo Drudi and produced by Ducati.

The Tour C4 jacket and trousers outfit represents the perfect combination of features and design: light and resistant, practical and quick to change into. The Tour C4 is characterized by the possibility of adjusting the space on the arms, waist and hips, combined with the air vents on the arms, torso and legs. The waterproof and breathable membrane and the thermal lining, which is a quilted jacket that can also be worn separately, allow this garment to be efficient in all weather conditions. Safety is guaranteed by CE certified protectors on shoulders and elbows, and the jacket is designed for the insertion of the back protector.

Atacama C2 touring outfit6

The Atacama C2 outfit is a total look dedicated to adventure in a perfect combination of performance, style and safety. The outfit features three modular layers with thermal lining and H2Out® waterproof membrane for maximum comfort in all conditions. Practicality and comfort of the garment are maximized by the air vents, space adjustments and elasticated areas. The jacket’s excellent versatility is also due to the detachable sleeves, to the resealable shoulder protection bag and the zip to match the trousers.

Heritage C2 leather jacket

The big news in the Urban line is the Heritage C2 jacket, designed for city riding. The unmistakable look of this garment is inspired by the historic Ducati Meccanica brand dating back to the mid-1950s. The urban design that characterize this product matches perfectly with important CE certified safety features, such as protections on shoulders and elbows and is designed for the insertion of a back protector.

Finally, Ducati offers an extensive Lifestyle range , including various Ducati and Ducati Corse sweatshirts and t-shirts, featuring new graphics with bold lines and colours. Within this collection, the Ducati Corse Thrill windproof jacket, available for both men and women, has also been renewed. The Ducati Corse Thrill is the ideal garment for fans of the Ducati Corse brand, who want to wear their passion even in their free time. The three-layer stretch soft-shell fabric guarantees excellent windproof protection as well as being highly breathable.

Lifestyle collection

The latest Ducati Apparel products will soon be available at the dealership network of the Bologna-based motorcycle company and on Shop.Ducati.com.

New LS2 Snow Winter Riding Gloves

Light, flexible and packed with practical features to deal with the cold and wet, LS2 Snow gloves offer comfort and control on chilly winter rides.

Underneath the tough textile outer shell is a Hipora® waterproof, windproof and breathable membrane, which keeps wind and rain out but allows perspiration to escape, for dry hands and fingers.

Velcro® Flap adjustment at the cuff provides a tight seal around jacket sleeves, preventing rain and wind from seeping in. The wrist is also secured by Velcro®, for a snug fit.

Power Stretch Leather at the fingers and wrist help with delicate control of the clutch, throttle and brakes – crucial on slippery streets.

Should the worst happen, KP1-rated knuckle protection, TPR protection at the fingers, as well as reinforced palm and finger sidewalls, give peace of mind. A palm slider also features to help protect the vulnerable wrist bones.

A Clear Vision visor wipe is fitted to each of the index fingers – an invaluable addition to any winter glove – and touchscreen-compatible sections enable electronic devices to be operated without the need to remove the gloves.

Winter-ready with the T.ur’s laminated touring kit

Featuring state-of-the-art technologies, premium materials, CE-Class AA approved levels of safety as well as a laminated, waterproof membrane, the T.ur ZERO range proves itself to be ready for the most demanding adventures.

T.ur’s first laminated all-weather touring kit tackles the cold season with the J-ZERO jacket and the P-ZERO trousers, designed to travel in the most hostile climates and studied in every detail to combine thermal comfort, wearability and CE-certified safety.

The outer layer is made from CORDURA®, with inserts in the super-strong SUPERFABRIC® material, and lined with an impermeable, breathable laminated membrane. T.ur also incorporated a range of handy details, such as the removable collar and Tucano Urbano’s patented HYDROSCUD® structure, which ensures that the garment is completely impermeable and at the same time guarantees the necessary levels of aeration for versatile use in all seasons. The removable under-layer – which can be worn separately – features THERMORE® Thermal Booster (170 gr) padding, which increases body temperature when winter begins to bite.

Safety is guaranteed by the CE17092-certified design, as well as the advanced CE Level 2 D3O® LP2 Pro elbow, shoulder and knee armour included as standard – granting the Class AA ranking. There are also CP1 D3O® CE protectors on the chest, an Aero 3D mesh pocket to fit the D3O® VIPER PRO CE back protector, and pockets on the hips.

The D3O® armour used is 40% more protective than the Level 2 CE-standard requires and is guaranteed in all climates including ambient, wet, hot and cold conditions, meaning T.ur riders can go anywhere and be confident they are well protected. Highly breathable with Tri-ventilation technology, the design of the D3O® LP2 Pro increases air passage and moisture flow from the body through the armour, so riders can stay cool in hot conditions. Thanks to the clever geometry of the armour, flexibility and fit have been optimised with soft, flexible materials with high shock absorbing properties, providing enhanced comfort so riders can keep their concentration on enjoying the ride.

There is also a whole host of details designed to ensure comfort during longer journeys, including the Safety&Support System, which allows the rider to position an elastic lumbar belt inside the jacket to improve the position of the back protector and share the weight of the jacket itself more evenly around the body.

Completing the winter equipment range are the CE-certified G-ZERO gloves, featuring a double-glove structure. The outer gloves have four fingers, with the fourth and fifth fingers joined together to ensure optimum thermal insulation and protection, while HDry® technology uses a patented procedure to glue the impermeable membrane to the external material to stop water from getting through, even when faced with the most extreme rainfall. The internal gloves have five fingers to ensure maximum dexterity are made with THERMORE® Thermal Booster (130 gr) padding.

The J-ZERO jacket is available in black/red (S-4XL) and dark grey/red (S-3XL), with RRP £529.99.

The P-ZERO trousers are available in black (S-4XL), with RRP £299.99.
