Motorcycle properties, from a motorcycle maker
The fabric does not melt under abrasion.
That is its own bullet, on a base layer. No other base layer in this catalogue addresses the question at all — not the training leggings, not the ski thermals.
It matters because a base layer is worn directly against the skin under riding kit, and many synthetics soften and melt under friction heat. The maker chose polypropylene with elastane, which binds little water and tolerates friction heat far better than polyester. The property claimed follows from the material chosen; it is not a coating that wears off.
Its airbag vest is a motorcycle-specific system from a motorcycle maker — which is not true of most of that family, where the majority of what the shelf holds is published for equestrian use.
Its listing text, though, is brand, category, colour and size. Everything that decides an airbag purchase — the trigger arrangement, the coverage, the service interval, the cost after a deployment — is in the maker’s own documentation and not in what was sold on that page.
Electronic airbag system · motorcycle-specific
An electronic airbag vest from a motorcycle equipment maker. The listing text itself is minimal — brand, category, colour and size.
Best for: A rider prepared to read the maker’s own documentation, which is where this system is actually specified.
≈ $870 / £700 / €750
A motorcycle base layer in polypropylene with elastane, published by its maker as not melting under abrasion — the only listing in this family to address that property.
Best for: Wearing under leathers or a suit, where what the layer next to your skin is made of has been thought about.
Nothing written into the text below is a current price. Where an amount appears in a sentence, it is the reading taken on the day that sentence was written; what a shop is asking at this moment loads beside the product itself, and that is the figure to go by.
