FAQs
What is the CE rating of this jacket?
The Oxford Delta 1.0 Textile Jacket is rated CE Level AA, indicating a high standard of abrasion resistance and protection for motorcycle riders.
Does it come with a back protector?
No, the jacket includes pockets for CE-approved elbow and shoulder protectors, but a back protector must be purchased separately if desired.
How do I clean the jacket?
The outer shell can be machine washed on a gentle, cold cycle. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Air dry only. The removable thermal lining can be hand-washed.
Is the jacket fully waterproof or water-resistant?
The jacket features a waterproof membrane, making it waterproof. However, prolonged submersion in extreme conditions might eventually test its limits.
Can I wear this jacket in different seasons?
Yes, the jacket is versatile. It includes a removable thermal lining for colder weather and air vents for warmer conditions, making it suitable for year-round use with appropriate layering.
What kind of fit does this jacket have?
It's designed as a 'short length' jacket with a sporty fit, featuring accordion stretch panels for ease of movement and adjustable points for a customizable fit.
Are the elbow and shoulder protectors adjustable?
The CE protectors for the elbows and shoulders are typically housed in adjustable pockets, allowing for minor positioning adjustments for optimal comfort and protection.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down until it moves freely.
Water ingress during heavy rain
Ensure all zippers are fully closed and Velcro tabs are secured. Re-apply a suitable waterproofing spray to the outer fabric and check the condition of the waterproof membrane.
Lining is difficult to remove or re-insert
Align the lining carefully with the jacket's internal attachment points (zippers, snaps, or Velcro). Ensure no fabric is caught in the zippers.
Ventilation feels insufficient in hot weather
Ensure all air vents are fully open. Consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers to help manage perspiration. For extreme heat, a more heavily vented jacket might be required.
