Dainese enlarges its iconic motorcycle heritage collection
Dainese, the legendary Italian protection company that created the motorcycle protection category, presents new men and female summer wear at Motor Bike Expo 2016. The new collection features lighter or perforated heritage garments and a dedicated product line for women riders searching for both technicality and style. Worldwide renowned for producing functional, technical performance gear for the world’s top motorcycle racers and recreational motorcyclists, with its vintage collection Dainese showcases a markedly different approach that emphasizes style, while maintaining protection from the elements and injury.
The product line pays homage to Dainese’s roots by fusing its Italian heritage with rugged, vintage style. The collection consists of lifestyle apparel and accessories, including jackets, shirting, knitwear, gloves and footwear in an assortment of earth tones, both for men and women’s wear. The company expertise in working with high-quality, full-grain leathers is exemplified in the collection’s outerwear and accessories that feature a myriad of treatment, finishes and protective aspects. Several elements feature utilitarian elements that meet various motorcycle safety certifications.
The collection’s outerwear offers various elements of rider protection and comes in a variety of finishes, such as waxed cowhide and suede leather. Men’s outerwear Heston and York and female jacket Keira Lady include a pocket to accept back protector – a motorcycle-safety innovation pioneered by Dainese more than 30 years ago. Each jacket features soft removable Pro-Shape protectors (Pro-Armor ready) built into the shoulder and elbow, as well as reflective inserts. The menswear apparel features masculine, classic styled cotton garments with protective elements like internal DuPont™ Kevlar® reinforcements for McKellen trousers.
Outerwear retails from € 399,95 to € 599,95, trousers are available at € 159,95, while apparel, including new Scrawl and Pocket t-shirts and Helmore sweater, ranges from € 39,95 to € 149,95.
Dainese is recognized for its motorcycle footwear, and the new collection features different shoe styles, ranging from Walken, full-length waxed cowhide and canvas boots, to Vicky Lady, female high quality full grain cowhide leather boots. While incorporating elements of weather and injury protection, the footwear is uniquely designed for comfort on and off the road. Rigid inserts, gear shifter guards and reinforcements are featured throughout the collection.
Ellis Man and Lady gloves showcase Dainese’s leather craftsmanship and feature premium goatskin leather. Like Dainese’s racing gloves, the new heritage varieties include soft reinforcements on knuckles.
Footwear ranges from € 149,95 to € 199,95, while gloves from € 49,95 to € 99,95.
