The motorcycle gear company has integrated several new features into the jacket, starting with a waterproof, breathable outer shell made of 400-denier nylon and 100-percent seam-sealed construction. For added abrasion resistance in key areas, 640-denier nylon has been added to the elbows and shoulders.

Other upgrades include fully adjustable D30 T5 CE armor in the shoulders and elbows, delivering the same protection as CE armor but in a thinner and more flexible package. The collar closure utilizes a new slider snap that has adjustment ranges of 1.5 inches for a personalized fit. Cut to fit a woman’s unique figure, the jacket offers compression straps on the bicep and forearms and a waist belt with hook and loop closure.
