The Thiago is a very urban-oriented motorbike jacket, and with it, you will just want to walk around a lot more after the ride. A waterproof 2-in-1 as well, in retro style.
We just want to say: do not be misled by the retro-urban look & feel (those diamond-shaped stitchings) and the café racers you associate with this, Modeka delivers with the Thiago a very contemporary and performing motorcycle jacket. At a very competitive price, moreover. The outer layer is a mix of cotton and polyamide, with a double layer at critical crash zones. The result is a wear-resistant fabric, without compromising mobility or comfort. On the contrary, the Thiago is light for a motorcycle jacket and even more so if you remove the Humax® membrane. The latter is of course breathable and 100% wind and waterproof.
Do not look for thermal lining. As a city person, you are likely to wear a thick sweater or an extra layer underneath the Thiago, and a full day walking in the forest will probably not be part of the plan. The Thiago is a city coat which regularly changes shoulders for the back of a chair in a coffee bar. Ventilation zippers are available.
YF is responsible for the impact protection. Shoulders and elbows are standard equipped with CE-approved protectors and for those who prefer, a CE-approved back protector can be fitted without much effort.
The waist with the elastic strips, the press buttons at the front, on the collar, on the sleeve ends and on the upper arms (as adjustment possibility), they give the Thiago a sturdy appearance. As if he is armed against what urban life can Throw at him.
The Belt Loop shows that the combination possibilities must be sought in the direction of a good pair of motorbike jeans.
