Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

This jacket is designed for everyday and all-day wear and offers waterproofing. For extreme cold, additional thermal layers would be necessary, as it does not have integrated heavy insulation.

How do I find the correct size?

Please refer to the Dainese size guide provided, which details measurements for chest, waist, and hips to ensure the best fit.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry.

What does 'D-Dry' mean?

D-Dry is Dainese's proprietary waterproof and breathable membrane, designed to keep you dry from external moisture while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.

Is this jacket intended for racing?

While it has a sporty look, it is described as being for everyday and all-day wear. For dedicated track racing, specialized racing suits or jackets with higher protection levels would be recommended.

How often should I reapply waterproofing treatment?

It is recommended to reapply a DWR treatment when you notice that water is no longer beading up on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.

Troubleshooting

Jacket leaks water

Ensure zippers are fully closed and check for damage to the D-Dry membrane. Reapply a DWR treatment if water is beading less effectively.

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive

Consult the Dainese size guide for accurate measurements. Consider if appropriate base layers are being used. Note that a sporty fit can feel snugger than a relaxed fit.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil) to the zipper teeth to improve smoothness.

Reduced breathability

Ensure ventilation areas are open and not obstructed. Check if the internal lining is damp, which can affect perceived breathability. Allow the jacket to fully dry.
