All-Season Touring Performance with Direct Laminate Waterproofing

The Dririder Nordic Evolution Jacket is a highly technical road jacket designed for commuters and touring riders who require reliable weather protection without sacrificing mobility. Featuring a direct laminated waterproof and breathable outer shell, this garment prevents water soak-through to keep the rider dry and light in heavy rain. The integration of premium cowhide leather on high-impact areas ensures superior abrasion resistance while maintaining a flexible, ergonomic fit for long-distance comfort.

Key Features

• Direct Laminated Shell: Waterproof and breathable 10,000mm membrane laminated to the outer fabric to prevent water absorption.
• Hybrid Construction: Multi-directional stretch material reinforced with premium cowhide leather on the shoulders and forearms.
• X-Halo Armour: CE Level 2 certified protection at the shoulders and elbows for high-level impact absorption.
• Modular Thermal Liner: Upgraded insulated liner that can be removed and worn as a standalone jacket off the bike.
• Direct Ventilation: Zippered intake vents on the chest and forearms with exhaust ports on the back for airflow management.
• Safety Seam Construction: Built with ISO4916 safety seams to provide maximum structural integrity during a slide.
• Magnetic Assisted Closures: Five external pockets equipped with magnetic closures for easy access even while wearing gloves.
• Adjustable Ergonomics: Arm and waist adjustment points combined with pre-curved sleeves for a tailored riding fit.

Advanced Protection and Safety

The Nordic Evolution prioritises rider safety through its comprehensive CE Level AA certification under the EN17092-3:2020 standard. Beyond the Level 2 limb armour, it includes a High-Density Foam back protector and dedicated connection zips to secure the jacket to compatible riding pants. The fixed mesh lining is hypoallergenic and quick-drying, ensuring a fresh interior environment during intensive use in varied Australian climates.
