Textile Jackets & Suits
If textile jackets had been as abundant, versatile and diverse in 1954 as they are today, Brando’s bad boy biker persona in the movie The Wild One would have had a whole new appearance. The lightweight, waterproof/breathable, flexible
and comfortable natures of textile jackets make them an attractive
alternative to their leather brethren.
In terms of protection, all Firstgear textile jackets employ waterproof/breathable
Hypertex®, an effective combination of abrasion-resistant synthetic materials.
To ensure the ultimate in protection, should you find yourself sliding down the road, all textile jackets are double stitched using the best 5-ply nylon thread available. All Firstgear textile jackets also feature CE-approved armor in the elbows
and shoulders, the two most commonly impacted areas of your body.
