With the Rochelle Lady D-Dry®motorcycle jacket, Dainese presents a waterproof, city motorcycle jacket that stands out thanks to its light weight and short cut. This is a style choice and because all functional criteria are more than met, there’s nothing wrong with that at all. Au contraire.
You don’t really feel like you’re riding around in a biker’s jacket. The
Rochelle Lady D-Dry® is
light and even the wear-resistant exterior doesn’t really feel like a motorcycle
jacket. The soft impact protection adds to that feeling.
Anyway, the
integrated D-Dry®membrane
is waterproof and breathable.
Non-removable and incorporated under the sturdy exterior, it hardly stands out. Until it starts to rain. And then, it does what it’s there for. The unzippable thermal lining is something you do notice. Positively speaking, because it has clearly gotten some extra attention. Beautiful and comfortable, and when you add up everything you read above, you’ll see that the Rochelle Lady D-Dry®motorcycle jacket is perfect for autumn, part of winter or spring. The lack of ventilation openings seems to exclude summer a bit, although the breathing properties of the D-Dry®membrane offer relief for quite some time.
So, an all-rounder, this short-cut Rochelle Lady D-Dry® One to use every day. You can even wear it without a bike near, certainly in a city or professional setting. Nobody will look at you funny.
The subtle reflective elements, short cut and limited adjustment possibilities (gorgeous push buttons) on the sleeves and collar suggest that this Rochelle Lady D-Dry® is easy to deal with. This city element is brought back in the practical structure of this motorcycle jacket: an additional pocket on the sleeve, two zippable pockets in the front, an inner pocket… And while you are feeling around in all these pockets, you experience how pleasantly and comfortably the impact protection has been adjusted to them: Pro-Shape 2.0 certified protectors on the shoulders and elbows comply with the highest Dainese safety standards and are conspicuously inconspicuous. You can always add an optional back protector.
In all this inconspicuousness, the totality shows a striking, stylish motorcycle jacket. Good motorcycle jeans are the preferred combination option.
