In 2006 we released not one but two innovations: Summer Comfort System™ and Summer Comfort System Pro™. The former developed for waterproof urban jackets and the latter for waterproof adventure and touring jackets.

Summer Comfort System™ consists of a strip of mesh fabric behind the main zip and a second zip option. Depending on your zip of choice, the mesh strip is either hidden or visible, meaning the jacket is fully waterproof or fully ventilated along the entire length of the torso.

Summer Comfort System Pro™ is a more elaborate version and features a detachable piece in the centre of the jacket. Behind this detachable piece you’ll find mesh fabric that enables ventilation along the entire length of the jacket.

Waterproof membranes are great at blocking rainwater, but they can also hamper the ventilating capabilities of your garment. Jackets with a fixed waterproof membrane are known to get sweaty in hot riding conditions – which isn’t comfortable to say the least.

To combat this issue, we present our Summer Comfort System™. This is a regular main zip like you’re used to, but with two options: fully closed or ventilated. SCS reveals a mesh strip in the middle of the jacket that provides ventilation when needed, without compromising waterproofness when it’s raining.

A real must-have when touring full days with colder mornings and warmer afternoons.

Unexpectedly sunny weather is a welcome gift for every rider, unless you’re already out on the road in your non-mesh jacket.

As the temperature rises, you’re about to get cooked in your own gear. Opening up your main zip a bit might help, but it’s not going to be the relief you need.

That’s where our Summer Comfort System™ Pro comes in.

This central part of the jacket is fully detachable and reveals panels of mesh fabric around the main zip. S.C.S.™ Pro turns your motorcycle jacket into a semi-mesh jacket with the flick of a wrist.

Now you know the benefits of our Summer Comfort System™. Want to find out more about other comfort-enhancing differentiators? Return to Warm Conditions and scroll down to continue your adventure.
