Weise Maverick jacket - new orange flavour

New from WEISE® for 2010, the Maverick jacket is available not only in black, red and blue colour options but also an eye-catching orange version. Cool citrus colour schemes feature on machines in the Kawasaki, Harley-Davidson and KTM ranges and there is growing demand for brighter colours of bike clothing from owners of plain-coloured motorcycles, too.

As with the complete WEISE® range, substance has not been forsaken for style; all Maverick jackets have a tough 600 denier textile outer shell with CE approved armour at the shoulders, elbow and back, offering all-round impact protection, while 3MTM reflective panels on the chest and back can be easily spotted by other road users in poor visibility.

An ISOTEX® waterproof, windproof, breathable drop lining provides a barrier against the elements, while the WEISE® Water Release System (WRS) channels away excess water to ensure a dry and comfortable ride even in heavy downpours. The Maverick features a removable 100-gram thermal quilted inner and trouser connection zip to prevent the jacket 'riding up'.

Topping off the Maverick's practical specification are two large capacity external waterproof pockets, additional arm pockets (for carrying all the daily essentials) and a large pocket at the back (ideal for carrying unlined over-trousers).

The WEISE® Maverick Jacket is available at an RRP of £139.99 in sizes S-3XL in black/gun/blue, black/gun/red and black/gun/orange and up to size 5XL in black/gun/gun. Further details on the complete 2010 WEISE® range of rider apparel can be found at www.weise-clothing.co.uk or call 0117 971 9200.

Cool it this summer with Weise Air Spin

Temperatures this summer are predicted to reach record levels, possibly as high as 100° Fahrenheit, making it tough for motorcyclists to keep their cool wearing traditional leather or textile biking wear.

Weise® developed the Air Spin in response to requests from customers for a jacket that combined the protection of CE approved armour at the shoulders, elbow and back with maximum ventilation for summer riding. The outer shell has 500 denier construction on the arms and shoulders with generous air flow mesh at the front and rear of jacket, allowing the cooling breeze to penetrate. There is a detachable waterproof/breathable drop liner under the outer shell, so getting caught in a traditional summer thunderstorm will not present any problems.

Singing sensation Taio Cruz recently tried out a Weise Air Spin jacket while taking advantage of the Get On campaign’s free one-hour experience session, which is available to anyone over the age of 16. The pop star, who stormed the UK and US charts with his number 1 hit single Break Your Heart, took time out from filming the video for his latest single, (Dynamite, due to be released on August 23), to enjoy a training session with Brands Hatch Yamaha. Sessions can be booked at www.geton.co.uk which also provides a one-stop shop of information on how to get into biking.

Available in a choice of black/red, black/blue and black/gun in sizes XS - XXXL and priced at £99.99, the Weise® Air Spin jacket makes riding in the heat a breeze. For more information on Weise clothing visit www.weise-clothing.co.uk or call 0117 971 9200
