Casual Urban Protection with Huntsman Coating

The Merlin Axe Jacket delivers a classic lumberjack aesthetic engineered specifically for motorcycle protection. Constructed from soft brushed cotton with a specialised Huntsman water-repellent coating, this jacket bridges the gap between casual streetwear and technical riding gear. The internal construction features a full-length Kevlar® fibre lining to provide essential abrasion resistance for the modern commuter.

Key Features

• Huntsman Coating: A technical water-repellent finish applied to the brushed cotton outer to help manage light rain and road spray.

• Pants Integration: Features a short YKK connecting zip to securely attach the jacket to compatible riding trousers.
• Adjustable Fit: Snap detailing at the cuffs and a drop hem design allow for a tailored fit and improved coverage while in the riding position.
• Utility Storage: Twin patch chest pockets provide accessible storage for small essentials while maintaining the urban style.
