The Tryton is quite the atypical motorcycle jacket. It looks like an anorak while it features a full-length zip in the front and it serves as a versatile 3-in-1. Its adventurous style reveals that there could be lots of special qualities – which there are.
‘One thing is not like the other…’, is how the expression goes.
This Tryton motorcycle jacket is definitely unique. Macna itself calls this style ‘utility’. Surprising at times and then you discover how good certain properties are. Take the central zip for example: it appears to be missing. Then, you realise that the left one of the ‘half’ zips at the front runs all the way to the waist. So, not ‘central’, but diagonal. This gives you the typical, wide kangaroo pouch, which is always fun. And clever.
We automatically link the anorak style with colder regions but this 3-in-1 is so much more versatile. The Tryton features a removable thermal lining and then there’s the removable Raintex ML membrane. Whatever set-up you go for, it’s always comfortable, even when it’s directly onto your skin. That didn’t used to be like this. The exterior is a combination of different ripstop varieties and thicknesses, and cowhide. Among other things. There are also the subtle, reflective Night-Eye elements to improve your visibility. During the day, Night Eye is merely a part of the design but at night, the microscopic little Night Eye elements reflect the light back to the source.
Large 3D mesh ventilation panels on the chest, back and arms create a serious airflow when you need it. If that need comes while you are riding and you don’t want to take off the Tryton motorcycle jacket to open the ventilation openings at the back, then you can use the Quick Vent system: two straps with buckles at the collarbone that run all the way over your shoulders. Pulling them opens up a few panels at the back, almost like a remote control. The buckles can be attached to the press studs on the chest pockets.
You can remove the hood or keep it in place with the Hoodie Holder while the designated water outlet prevents your motorcycle jacket from retaining too much moisture between the membrane and the outer layer.
The RISC level 1 impact protectors on the elbows and shoulders are in charge of the necessary protection. You can buy a CE-certified back protector separately to then fit it in the designated compartment.
This Tryton motorcycle jacket features Easy cuff sleeve ends. By using a zipper (instead of loops with press studs) the different removable layers don’t hinder one another and getting in and out of it is much easier. Other in-house developed Macna elements are the Belt Loop and the Dynamic Cuff that allow for a better fit between sleeve and motorcycle glove.
The choice for a belt loop to connect the trousers is a sensible one: an individualistic and striking motorcycle jacket like this one can be combined with every pair of Macna motorcycle trousers. Even the motorcycle jeans option is worth considering.
