This one-piece suit by DAINESE is situated in the higher regions of this category of motorcycle clothing: ‘high performance’ vintage Dainese, with hump, quite a lot of freedom of movement and attention for excellent climate control. Racing gear, that’s for sure.
With the Tosa, DAINESE delivers a one-piece racing suit with CE EN 17092-certification. Perforated Tutu cowhide forms the basic structure for a wear-resistant and well-ventilated motorcycle suit. Where you see Tosa, you see a combination of maximum protection, maximum movement and maximum comfort, which should come as no surprise.
The classic DAINESE fit is slender and centred, while offering an excellent freedom of movement in this one-piece suit, thanks to the S1 elastic inserts at the arms, groin and thighs. It’s the bi-axial stretch fabric (there’s also tri-axial) that takes care of the much-needed flexibility on the back, knees and shoulders.
Although every protection functions individually, these motor racing suits are about being greater than the sum of its parts. The special ‘impact protection system’ that is created combines the classic composite protectors of Dainese (knee, elbow and shoulder protection in composite material (EN 1621.1 - level 1), the hips get a set of Pro-shape protectors) with removable external sliders on the knees and exchangeable aluminium plates on the shoulders. It’s better to glide than to roll, in the event of a fall.
The aerodynamic hump can contain a camelbag as well. Very worth mentioning are the D-Tec Racing Core – a completely removable and washable ‘inner suit’ – and the breathing Nanofeel®lining with silver ions. To prevent odours and to ensure a healthy, cool feeling.
As tradition calls, finishing levels are on point. Zippers, collar finish, Velcro, calves and sleeve ends … DAINESE at its best. With a speed demon placed centrally in the design to boast.
There is maintenance clothing and then there is clothing maintenance. Good, solid clothing is an investment in comfort and personal safety. So invest in its maintenance after your purchase and enjoy your gear for longer.
