Dainese Metal 7 Gloves: ultimate MotoGP-level protection in every detail

Dainese Metal 7 Gloves: ultimate MotoGP-level protection in every detail

Dainese has introduced the next generation of MotoGP hand protection – the Full Metal 7 gloves.

Offering the most advanced hand protection ever, the Full Metal 7 gloves, maximise comfort and lightness whilst increasing riding sensitivity for that all-important handlebar control.

Certified to EN 13594 Level 2, the Full Metal 7 gloves are made from goatskin leather combined with aramid fibre lining and stitching to offer supreme comfort and feel.  Packed with Dainese’s innovative technology, the Full Metal 7 gloves feature Pro-Tek titanium inserts with a PU base on the knuckles. These are designed to protect the back of the hand and knuckle area, whilst offering exceptional levels of comfort and hand mobility, further by a pre-curved shape which hugs the knuckle area. The PU co-injected base and titanium plates ensure premium impact protection, excellent sliding and grip avoidance in case of a fall.

Ultimate MotoGP-level protection can be found in every detail of the gloves with the inclusion of TPU finger sliders and Distortion Control Protection on the little finger – a thermoplastic polyurethane insert positioned at the base of the finger to prevent extra rotation of the finger in the event of a fall. The fingers have an elastic and high-tenacity construction with micro-elastic elasticated inserts.

The Full Metal 7 have been pre-curved for race-riding and there are front and rear holes for increased ventilation. The cuff is adjustable to customise for a perfect fit along with a tightening strap to ensure the gloves stay put and keep the rigid inserts in the correct position. Dainese’s Pro-Hand technology can be found on the external side of the palm to aid protection if sliding to prevent further injury.

Riders can choose from Black/Black, Black/Red-Fluo and Black/Yellow-Fluo and in sizes XS-XXXL. The Full Metal 7 gloves have an RRP from £399.95 and will soon be available in Dainese stores and official stockists.

Dainese Introduces its 2024 D-AIR® Racing Suits: Three New State-of-the-Art Motorcycle Suits

Dainese presents the new MUGELLO 3 D-AIR®, MISANO 3 D-AIR® and MISANO 3 D-AIR® WMN: three state-of-the-art, lightweight, high-performance motorbike suits, equipped with the revolutionary triple-activation D-air® Racing airbag and the pentaxial elastic system, designed to offer the very highest levels of performance and safety on the track, as well as maximizing comfort and ergonomics.

The latest incarnation of the D-air® RACING SHIELD 3X system – featuring the Racing Shield 3x airbag with patented microfilament technology that allows for up to three consecutive activations – ensures maximum safety on the bike. The system takes safety to the next level by allowing the rider to independently replace the gas generator up to 3 times before the airbag needs replacing.

Plus, Riding Mode by Dainese allows to choose the airbag use mode depending on whether you’re on the road or the track. The right mode selection offers the greatest possible safety for the conditions to be faced.

MISANO 3 D-AIR – BLACK RED FLUO-RED

Superior performance is guaranteed by the technologies used in the construction of all three of these suits, rendering them extremely ergonomic; in addition, they are the lightest racing suits with an integrated airbag system. Specifically, the Mugello 3 weighs 20% less than the lightest suit with an integrated airbag system currently on the market. Safety, superior quality and comfort meet unprecedented lightness.

The innovative pentaxial elastic system on the back enables maximum freedom in the saddle in any riding position, due to the suit’s capacity to stretch in five directions, adapting seamlessly to the rider’s movements.

The new Veloce Racing Neck design, race-tested by MotoGP riders, reduces pressure on the neck, increasing freedom of movement and control. The Pro-Armor protectors on the shoulders and the soft inserts on the hips provide comfortable protection in all racing conditions. The new Soft Edges Construction system on the nape and cuffs – made from engineered abrasion-resistant and breathable fabric – enables maximum fit adaptability on all sizes and arm lengths.

MISANO 3 D-AIR – BLACK-ANTHRACITE FLUO-YELLOW

The metal plates (titanium for the Mugello 3, aluminum for the Misano 3 and Misano 3 WMN) on the knees, shoulders and elbows – an iconic technology used across Dainese racing clothing – are designed to facilitate sliding in the event of a fall, minimizing the risk of rolling and maximizing energy dissipation.

Innovation in every detail: the latest evolution of the Replaceable Slider System (RSS) 4.0 now enables the knee slider to be changed without altering the position of the base attached to the Velcro on the suit. This makes it possible to maintain an ideal position at all times, simply replacing the new slider. Innovation also comes to the elbows of the suit, which now offer two different slider positions; these can be easily adjusted with one hand with no need for tools, so riders can always choose their preferred position on the basis of the lean angle achieved.

Thermal comfort is guaranteed through the perforated areas on both sides of the suit, with larger vents at strategic points, for the best performance even on the hottest days at the track.

Finally, the in-and-out boot system allows the boot to be worn both inside and outside the suit, as the rider chooses. The waterbag kit and the new removable and washable inner liner complete the highly versatile features of Dainese’s most advanced suits ever.

MUGELLO 3 D-AIR – BLACK FLUO-RED WHITE

The MUGELLO 3 PERF. D-AIR® 1PC LEATHER SUIT, crafted entirely from high-quality durable kangaroo leather, will be available for£3,999.95. The MISANO 3 PERF. D-AIR® 1PC LEATHER SUIT, made from D-Skin 2.0 full-grain cowhide which offers excellent ergonomics and performance, will retail at £2,249.95. In the women’s version, the price of the MISANO 3 PERF.

MISANO 3 D-AIR WMN BLACK RED FLUO-RED

New additions to the Dainese 2024 boot line-up

For 2024, Dainese is pleased to present several new boots to its range of riding footwear – including the urban, sneaker-style Suburb D-WP, Suburb Air and a new colour to the sporty Nexus 2 boots.
Suburb Air

Suburb 
The new Suburb WP and Suburb Air are certified to CE – Cat. II – EN 13634 Standard, with rigid inserts on the malleolus area and soft D-Foam on the internal side for protection in the areas where it’s needed the most in the event of an accident. There is a gear shifter guard in PU to help with the longevity of the boots too.

The Suburb WP is constructed from suede leather and an abrasion-resistant fabric upper with a waterproof D-WP® interior, ideal for wet days. The Suburb Air has the same great look as the Suburb WP but, as the name would suggest, is perfectly suited to those warmer rides thanks to its highly ventilated construction of a microfibre upper and mesh lining.

To ensure comfort for all-day wear, both the Suburb Air and Suburb WP have an Ortholite® footbed and Groundtrax® outsoles. This technology has been specifically engineered to provide grip, stability and comfort on and off the bike.

Certified to CE – Cat. II – EN 13634 Standard, the Nexus 2 boots feature an Internal AXIAL Distortion Control System, an articulated structure integrated into the boot that serves a triple purpose: protecting against sprains, reducing the intensity of impact by distributing it over the structure‘s entire surface, and stopping objects from entering the boot. For further protection, there is a nylon heel, a protective inner nylon hull, a reinforced nylon toe and thermoplastic polyurethane inserts on the shin.

Easy to wear and fit, there is a zipper at the back to close, flexible joints for extra walking comfort and an adjustment strap for a customised fit. The sliders on the toe are removable and the boots come with a setscrew wrench for any adjustments.

The Nexus 2 boots have an RRP of £289.95 and are available in sizes EU39-47. Riders can choose from Black, Black/Anthracite, Black/Fluro-Red or the new colour Black/Lava Red/Iron-Gate.

Smart Jacket – MotoGP protection for the road from Dainese

Designed with the flexibility to be worn over or under any outfit and without needing to be connected to the motorcycle, Dainese’s Smart Jacket combines all the power of the latest generation of D-Air® – Dainese’s Airbag System – into the convenience of a vest.

With no need for a back protector, the Smart Jacket can be folded when not in use to be stored in a backpack or even a top box. However, this doesn’t mean riders aren’t protected, with the system offering the equivalent protection as seven back protectors and the Smart Jacket being constructed from abrasion resistant material.

The Dainese D-air® airbag system protects the motorcycle rider’s back and vital parts with its ‘Shield’, the patented airbag with microfilaments that ensure high shock absorption capacity without the need for hardshell protective gear. Its special structure and microfilaments guarantee uniform, controlled inflation, offering the same level of protection over every inch of the jacket. Dainese’s D-air® system is the only certified motorcycle airbag protection that doesn’t use hardshell protection on the torso (EN 1621-4 Lev. 2) or back (EN 1621-4 CB Lev. 1).

Rain or shine, the Smart Jacket has riders covered – with ventilation for warmer days and a totally waterproof electronic system for any sudden downpours.

The brain inside the Smart Jacket senses and analyses everything that goes on around the motorcycle rider. It uses its sensors to monitor and process data 1,000 times a second, the complex Dainese-developed algorithm ensures that the Smart Jacket only deploys when needed – in the event of lowsides, highsides, rear-end collisions and in the event of a collision with a stationary vehicle.

The intelligence behind the Dainese D-air® in the Smart Jacket is the result of data gathered in more than 25 years of tests and use on the road and track by both everyday and professional motorcycle riders throughout the world.

With a battery life of up to 26 hours continuous use and a shipping mode, activated using the D-Air® app – which doesn’t require a subscription – the Smart Jacket can go everywhere.

The Smart Jacket can be serviced and repaired in the UK in Dainese’s service centres.

The Smart Jacket in black is available in both Men’s and Women’s fit options and in sizes XS – XXL. It has an RRP of £649.95. The Smart Jacket Hi-Vis has an RRP of £729.95 and is available in sizes XS-4XL

Matteo Sinigaglia, CEO of Fashion Box SpA, said: We are thrilled to announce this partnership as we feel this comes as a perfect match of our two brands. The motorcycling world has always been part of the creative DNA of Replay and Dainese is the pinnacle of premium performance riding gear. We both believe that performance denim will play a pivotal role for bikers in the future and this capsule aims to celebrate our common drivers of creativity, innovation and performance discovering new wearability horizons.

Cristiano Silei, CEO of Dainese, added: Two examples of international Italian excellence are coming together to establish a long-term collaboration that will allow the expertise of Dainese and Replay to find expression in products on the market. Motorcycle riders have always been at the center of how we think about design. Our priority is to accompany them however and wherever they move. This collaboration is further proof of how style, creativity and safety are inseparable and complementary.”

MANIFESTO
Dainese leather, protecting the greatest heroes of motorcycle racing under extreme performance conditions, combines with Replay denim and style, under the banner of urban freedom and outdoor living.

Two Italian icons of safety and style. Together.

The Dainese|Replay collection was designed to protect riders while emphasizing their uniqueness.

THE CAPSULE COLLECTION
The Kevins jacket features concealed protectors for elbows and shoulders boasting Dainese Pro Shape 2.0 technology and conceived especially for riders. Inspired by the auxetic structures present in nature, the jacket offers safety and total freedom of movement. The leather sleeves and Hyper Cordura denim body immediately betray its origins: this is indeed a Replay’s iconic sartorial jacket.

The Eddiel pants combine Dainese’s technology and experience in motorcycle protective denim with Replay’s style, echoing the iconic fit of the Replay’s Zaldock model. They are made of Hyper Cordura with inserts on the knees and elastic ribs in soft Dainese leather. For this co-branded capsule, a new denim fabric, which weaves together Cordura with Hyperflex denim, has made it possible to create technical and certified garments for sports use (AA EN17092-3-2020 and A EN17092-4-2020) that are lighter, more flexible and breathable.

Dainese Smart Jacket | Replay: the most versatile airbag for any road use, with the ultimate Dainese D-air® airbag system is now available in a new version with Denim Hyper Cordura inserts and leather yoke. This jacket offers the protection of the most advanced Dainese D-air® airbag technology used in MotoGP™, in a versatile vest that fits any rider. It does not require connections with the motorcycle. Owing to its independent electronic unit the Smart Jacket recognizes dangerous situations, providing the maximum level of protection possible to riders, equivalent to seven back protectors but without the bulk of a rigid back protector.

Completing the capsule is a black t-shirt with a bold treatment featuring a copper color print.

Copper is indeed the reference color of this capsule, which will be recognizable owing to an external leather label showcasing the two brands’ 3D metal logos with copper finish. A whole series of details such as buttons, zippers, rivets, labels and tags, is again in copper color.

The first co-branded capsule collection by Replay and Dainese to inaugurate their licensing agreement will be distributed in selected stores and on the website of both brands starting from 27 October.

Dainese Launches Smart Jacket


Dainese presents Smart Jacket, the new D-air airbag vest that can be worn underneath or on top of any jacket – a foldable, functional article of clothing, which does not require any connection to the bike. Used by the champions of MotoGP™, D-air® technology has been developed by Dainese with more than twenty-five years of research, in order to achieve the maximum level of versatility, now also for use on the road. Available in versions for men and women, Smart Jacket introduces stationary impact protection for the very first time.
Dainese Smart Jacket is the first airbag vest featuring D-air® technology that can be worn either over or under any jacket or outfit, without requiring any form of connection to the bike. This D-air® protector is worn separately from clothing, can be used riding any bike and on any road, and is available for both men and women. In addition, it is foldable, so it can be placed in a backpack or top box.

Smart Jacket is the result of more than twenty-five years of Dainese research on the D-air® system, and combines in a single garment the ultimate in airbag technology for motorbikes, the same used by MotoGP™ professional riders, with the maximum of versatility and easiness of use.

The “brain” of Smart Jacket is the triggering algorithm. The electronic central unit analyses 1,000 times per second the data transmitted by seven sensors and detects any dangerous situations, activating the system only when necessary. Two decades of development and the millions of data items gathered have enabled an extremely sophisticated algorithm to be created, with the ability to predict an accident, including stationary vehicle collisions.
The Shield is at the heart of the protection provided by Smart Jacket, an airbag featuring Dainese patented technology that, thanks to its exclusive structure with internal microfilaments, guarantees that the inflation is even and controlled throughout the entire surface and creates a shield that envelops the body and delivers protection to the rider. The Shield covers the chest and back, ensuring the same degree of protection as seven Level 1 back protectors, despite not having any form of hardshell protective gear inside: the result is an extremely light and practical garment which, once off the bike, can be easily folded and placed in a bag, a lateral top box or a backpack.

Smart Jacket offers a further fundamental element of versatility and comfort: ventilation. The external fabric of the jacket is ventilated, but the main innovation is found inside: the Shield is in fact folded over on itself, enabling, in normal riding conditions, air to pass through the front part. In case of activation the Shield expands to cover the entire chest guaranteeing the maximum level of protection. Smart Jacket is also designed to be worn in the rain, thanks to the water-repellent fabric and waterproof D-air® technology that have no problem with water.

Smart Jacket inherits the best practical features from the third-generation D-air® Road range, such as the option to have the airbag replaced by an authorised dealer. The long battery life makes this garment even more usable, guaranteeing 26 hours of function and fast recharging time.

Dainese Smart Jacket is available in six sizes, with a version for men and a version for women. It will be in stores from July, and will retail at £569.95

Dainese Exhibits At The 2018 Motor Bike Expo

Dainese Exhibits At The 2018 Motor Bike Expo With A Booth Dedicated To The New Dainese Settantadue Brand

The style of historic garments meets latest-generation technology: the Dainese Group’s new brand presents outerwear from its Speed Leather, Archetypes and Demon Flower lines at the Verona event.

Following the success of 2017, Dainese returns to the Motor Bike Expo and presents Dainese Settantadue, the Group’s new brand. Dainese Settantadue resurrects the history of motorcycle clothing in the glory years and gives it a Contemporary Heritage twist, with garments that combine elegance and technical solutions able to satisfy today’s safety requirements.

Art Director Renato Montagner explains the guideline that led to the birth of the new brand: “The main thread of Settantadue lies in its interpretation of Dainese’s origins and 45 years of experience, always at the forefront of innovation. The traditional processing of the leather, the attention paid to details recreated especially for each piece, the integration of Pro-Armor protectors without distorting shapes or equilibriums: a fusion, rather than a revisiting of past garments. Just as history is not only made up of heroes, style does not only belong to champions. This is why we’ve also taken inspiration from the every-day biker, who finds the bike to be a form of expression and keeps the spirit of this passion alive. For example, models like the Toga and the Chiodo were not linked to prominent figures in the past but have always represented a clearly recognisable image”.

The leather jacket is the star of the first Dainese Settantadue collection, a timeless garment that unites generations of motorcycle lovers. Lines include: Archetypes, Speed Leather and Demon Flower. All created with meticulous attention to detail, they are inspired by key stylistic elements from the past. Archetypes focuses on cult products such as the Chiodo, the classic leather jacket much loved by bikers, rockers and travellers in the 60s and 70s. Speed Leather brings jackets like Toga72 and Rapida72 to the attention of the public, jackets that hark back to the racing suits that Dainese produced at the start of its journey. The Demon Flower line presents Patina72, with its unique lining created for Dainese Settantadue by New York artist Othelo Gervacio and enhanced with a hand-finished treatment of the drum-dyed leather.

From 18 to 21 January, the entire collection will be on show in Hall 4, stand 14I.

The Dainese Settantadue brand narrative continues online with a dedicated website and social profiles that express the genuine passion for this original and authentic lifestyle day after day.
