SHOULDER & ELBOW VanTech CE Level 2 Armor included....Icon indicates garment comes with VanTech CE ARMOR as standard feature.
REMOVABLE BACKPAD - VELCRO VanTech CE LEVEL 2 BACKPAD STANDARD....Icon indicates BRVI and VanTech backpad standard in garmentVanTech ARMOR is CE approved. Smaller shapes allow a flexible fit.....BRVI supports the backpad from the shoulder area and thus the backpad hangsdown the back of the garment like a back pack shoulder strap and does notpull down the garment at the center back.
RAM A.I.R. sleeve vents are a patented design....There is usually one vent in each sleeve..Closure is by a waterproof nylon coil zipper. This design places the ventfacing forward at the inner elbow - so that when unzipped thevent bows outwards and scoops air into the sleeve and up the arm.....Our unique design feature is that the open vent is bridged by a perforatedmaterial that keeps the shape of the sleeve - so the sleeve does notgrow - bag and billow in the wind. This retains the elbow protection of thesleeve in the proper location - while also allowing substancial forcedventilation up the arm to the torso of the rider.
AIR CURTAIN VENT.... This is a patented vent system that allows the riderto open or close an <> stitched into the front lining panelsof the garment. This design has the outline of the vent top-stitchedthrough the outer shell.....The AirCurtain is made of waterproof coated nylon - so when closed the ventis sealed. This Air Curtain may be opened a little or a lot - making theventilation adjustable.....This design is ideal for allowing full frontal graphics without compromisingthe ventilation capabilities of the garment.
REAR EXIT VENTS....Usually two zippered vents in rear of garment close to the underarm area.....Vents are zippered closed.....OR - a single rear vent across the back.....Rear vents are necessary to allow air to flow from a front venting sourceover the rider and out the back so as to prevent ballooning of the garment.
ADJUSTABLE WAISTBAND....Icon indicates garment has adjustable waistband for enhanced fit flexibilityGarments with this feature offer +/- 2 inches of adjustability at thewaist area. The exact amount will vary from style to style.This is available in both Jackets and Pants.

For adventure touring, here is our Vanson ODYSSEY JACKET. Originally designed as both complement and compliment to the Buell adventure-touring motorcycle, our Odyssey Pants and Jacket (Styles ODYS, ODYP for men; ODLS, ODLP for women) are an excellent combination for both on- and off-the-road excursions. Comfort, protection, ease of movement and ventilation control in all weather conditions were the design goals for this family of garments.

Your sine qua non for comfort, ventilation and protection is a garment that flows the maximum amount of air, without billowing and deforming, which would lead to both fatigue and loss of protection, from armor shifting away from impact areas.

We chose 1000 denier Cordura nylon as the base material for its renowned durability and strength (developed at DuPont to replace the steel belts in radial tires). Cordura is very strong, but does not breathe well. With the Vanson AirCurtain Vent (US patents 5507042, 6883178,6868557) in the front and RamAir Induction Vents (US Patent 5704064) in the sleeves we can give you very effective ventilation.

The cover for the AirCurtain Vent is a double layer of 1000 denier Cordura which we top-stitch in a diamond pattern for extra strength. Behind the opening is the AirCurtain, of waterproof coated nylon with waterproof zippers, and an ingenious drainage system that lets rain water flow out of the sides, with air leaving through two exit vents just below your armpits, and a larger vent across your upper back.

Protection is enhanced by the Vanson Floating Armor system (US patents 607274, 6260196 ) with CE approved armor at the shoulders and elbows. The standard backpad fits into a lining pouch.

With a two-way center-front zipper you can adjust the opening for comfort on a long ride, and the Velcro tabs on the sides of the waistband can give you a snug fit if you need to keep out the wind; at the back you can zip the jacket and matching pants together. To keep your neck comfortable while keeping out the weather we lined the collar with lightweight leather over a foam-filled roll.

You'll have plenty of storage with two inside open-top mesh pockets and two waterproof zippered hand pockets on the outside.

BLACK 1000 DENIER NYLON CORDURA. Cordura yarns were
originally formulated by DuPont for use as cording in
radial tires - hence the name CORDURA. These yarns are
extremely tough with good abrasion resistance. A 3/4 oz.
polyurethane coating on the inside makes the material
water-resistant and strengthens the weave. This material
has very minimal stretch. It can also fade when exposed
to strong ultraviolet light.
.
CORDURA is a coated fabric and should not be washed or
dry-cleaned as this will damage the coating and seriously
harm the fabric integrity. Garments made from
Cordura should be hosed off with cool water and air-dried.
