Decide before the tech pack

Four decisions that shape an ADV touring jacket before the tech pack

Shell, liner, armor and length; the colorway and the badge come after these

600D polyester shell swatch next to a Cordura-type nylon shell swatch
600D · Cordura-type

01Shell: 600D polyester or Cordura-type nylon

600DCordura-type

600D polyester is the standard touring shell and takes color well. Cordura-type nylon is the harder-wearing shell for adventure riding off the tarmac.

Wrong choice 600D on a rental fleet that drops bikes on gravel every week.
Removable thermal liner half zipped out of a touring jacket shell
Liner · shell only

02Liner: removable thermal or shell only

Removable thermalShell only

The removable thermal liner turns one jacket into a three-season jacket. Shell only is the summer-market version, with the membrane still in.

Wrong choice Shell only for a club that rides mountain passes in spring.

03Armor: pockets fitted or pockets empty

FittedEmpty

Pockets fitted with armor ships a ready-to-ride jacket; pockets empty lets a brand fit the armor it already stocks.

Wrong choice Pockets cut for one armor shape and a brand that sources another.
Touring-length jacket over the pant next to an adventure-length jacket with a connection zip
Touring · adventure

04Length: touring or adventure

TouringAdventure + zip

The touring length covers the hip and the top of the pant; the adventure length is shorter and sits over adventure pants with a connection zip.

Wrong choice A touring length on a fleet that pairs the jacket with over-the-boot pants and a connection zip.

Five entry points

The five entry points: where a waterproof motorcycle jacket lets water in

A waterproof membrane keeps water out of the fabric; the jacket keeps water out of the rider, and those are two different jobs.

  1. Main zipStorm flap with a hook-and-loop strip over it.
  2. CollarCloses high with a soft chin guard.
  3. CuffsCinch under or over the glove.
  4. PocketsZips with garages at the top.
  5. HemCord pulls the shell onto the pant.

Not through the fabric. Water does not come through the fabric of a laminated jacket; it comes in at the openings. Each of the five is closed a different way, and the closures are the part of the jacket a buyer can check without a lab.

A needle hole is an opening too. Behind those closures, every seam in the shell is taped on the membrane side. The taping is checked before the liner goes in, when the inside of the shell is still visible.

How to check itPut the sample jacket on a form under a shower rig and close everything.
  • Water runs off the shell and off the closures.
  • Dry inside at the main zip, collar, cuffs and pockets.

Shell fact

Collar to hem

Anatomy of an ADV touring jacket, collar to hem

Eight parts across the shell and the liner; the branding is on the chest, the sleeve and the back, never over a vent. The dark tiles are the two the rider works on the road.

  • CollarCloses high with a soft chin guard; adjustable so it seals over a neck tube.
  • Storm flapHook-and-loop flap over the main zip, the first entry point closed.
  • Chest and back ventsZip vents that open into the jacket, chest as intake and back as exhaust.
  • Arm ventsZip vents on the upper arm, opened with a gloved hand.

  • Removable thermal linerZips in at the collar and the cuffs; out on a hot afternoon, in for the cold start.
  • Cuffs and hemCuffs cinch under or over the glove; the hem cord pulls the shell onto the pant.
  • Connection zipOn the adventure length, the zip that joins the jacket to the pant.

One jacket, three weathers

One jacket, three weathers: vents and liner set for the day

The touring jacket is a system, not a shell; the vents and the liner are the two controls the rider has

Three states, one shell. Cold start: liner zipped in, vents closed, collar sealed. Hot afternoon: liner out and packed, chest and arm vents open as intakes, back vents open as exhausts, so air moves through the jacket instead of sitting in it. Rain: liner in or out as the temperature says, vents closed, storm flap and collar sealed, and the membrane does the rest. All three are reachable on the road, with gloves on, without taking the jacket off except to remove the liner.

Built for gloved hands. This is why the vents are zips with pull tabs a gloved hand can find, why the liner zips in at the collar and cuffs rather than buttons, and why the vent positions are set on the riding form: chest intakes where the wind hits the rider, back exhausts where the air leaves.

How to check itWith the sample on and gloves on, open every vent and close it again. Zip the liner out and back in.
  • Nothing needs a bare hand.
  • The shell still fits with the liner out.

ADV touring jacket sizing: over the layers, arms forward, size-run set

A touring jacket is sized with the liner in and the arms on the bars; a jacket that fits standing up rides short in the sleeve

Sized for the cold start. The size run is set with the thermal liner zipped in and a mid-layer under it, because that is the state a rider buys the jacket for. Sleeve length is measured with the arms forward on the bars, not hanging, so the cuff still covers the glove when the rider is riding. The armor pockets are positioned for that same forward position, so the elbow armor sits on the elbow when the arm is bent.

Try it on the bike. Before bulk, a size-run set goes out so the club or the brand can try the sizes on the bike, liner in, gloves on. The signed size sheet then travels with the order through cutting, sewing and packing.

Sleeve ruleMeasure with the arms forward on the bars. A sleeve that fits standing rides short.
  • Signed size sheet travels with the order through cutting, sewing and packing.
  • Fleet size mix from your bookings, or ours for a first order.
