Dririder Climate Control Exo 4 Jacket - BLK / BLK

The DriRider Climate Control Exo 4 is a vented hypersports jacket that pairs high-strength textile with full grain cowhide leather in the impact zones, so you get abrasion resistance where it matters without carrying the weight of a full leather jacket. Micro mesh panels through the body keep air moving on warm days, while D3O CE Level 2 armour sits under the leather at the shoulders and elbows.

Two removable liners make it a genuine year-round jacket. The Dri-Tex waterproof/breathable liner handles wet weather and zips out for hot, dry riding to reveal a mesh comfort lining, and the dotted quilted thermal liner adds warmth for cold mornings. Pre-curved arms, stretch panels across the chest, shoulders and elbows, and a lined comfort collar keep the fit comfortable in a sports riding position.

Best suited to sports and sport-touring riders who want one jacket for changing Australian conditions, finished here in a discreet black/black colourway.

Remove both the waterproof Dri-Tex liner and the quilted thermal liner, and take out the D3O® shoulder and elbow armour, before any washing.
Follow the sewn-in care label for wash temperature and method; do not dry clean, tumble dry or iron the shell or the liners.
Wash the D3O® armour by hand in lukewarm water with mild soap only, then air dry it flat away from direct heat before refitting.
Sponge the leather shoulder and elbow panels with a damp cloth and a leather-safe cleaner rather than soaking them, and avoid solvents, petrol and household detergents on any part of the jacket.
Dry the jacket on a wide hanger at room temperature, well away from heaters, exhausts and direct sunlight.
Zip the waterproof liner back in for wet rides and store it flat when removed, so the membrane isn't creased or punctured.
Check before each ride that the armour is seated correctly in its pockets and that the arm and waist adjusters are set for a snug, non-restrictive fit.
Use the pant zipper connector when pairing with compatible DriRider trousers so the jacket cannot ride up in a slide.
Inspect seams, zippers and the leather panels periodically, and retire or repair the jacket if it has been through a crash or shows abrasion damage.
Store on a hanger in a cool, dry, ventilated space; avoid long-term compression in a bag, which can crease the membrane and mesh.
