High-tech motorcycle clothing

Rukka has been synonymous with top-quality motorbike clothing for decades. Rukka always focuses on the complete system in this regard - from functional garments on the skin, to protector technology and the outer protective layer. Bikers who value quality, comfort and safety in equal measure cannot do any better than Rukka.

This clothing has a connecting zip.

Breathable material. Prevents condensation forming under the cover due to fluctuations in the outside temperature.

100% waterproof

Sold under various brand names (Gore-Tex, Reissa, Tepor, Sympatex, Hipora, Porell, Helsapor, Enprotex, Nibo, Humax, Drygate etc.). Gore-Tex and Sympatex have patent protection. One thing all these membranes have in common is their basic function: exploiting a temperature gradient, perspiration is transported from the inside to the outside, yet wind and rain cannot get in. This effect makes both fabric and leather clothing highly weatherproof, and also very comfortable to wear. The membranes are manufactured from different base materials, depending on the brand, and are made either as a loose "liner", as a laminate (bonded to the outer material), or as a coating on a carrier material. The first product of this kind, the "Gore-Tex" membrane made of Teflon, fulfils its function due to its very fine pores, which allow moisture from the skin to move outwards, but prevent the larger raindrops from moving inwards. Gore-Tex is indeed highly effective, but the patented material comes at a price. All the other membranes consist of polyurethane or polyester, and transport water vapour molecules outwards by means of chemical reactions. Different materials have been adapted to the various applications in the field of motorcycle clothing. All of these climate membranes are sensitive to mechanical damage: if a membrane is pierced, clearly it can no longer provide protection. Damage can also result from the use of inappropriate washing agents. Softeners, including those contained in detergents, damage the membrane irreparably!

What is Armacor?
It is a patented combination of high-tech fibres developed by Gore: ARAMID and POLYAMIDE, which are used as the shell of a GoreTex 3-layer laminate. What's new is the "core-sheath structure": a "fibre sheath" made of hard-wearing, UV-stable polyamide encloses the "fibre core" of highly tear- and /heat-resistant aramid.
This means:
GREATER SAFETY! The "lattice structure", which is also new, is designed to absorb the multidirectional forces acting on the fibres in the event of a fall and to significantly reduce the effects of the simultaneously occurring abrasive forces .
GREATER COMFORT! Improved breathability because the 3-layer structure reduces the layers of air remaining in the fabric. The shell absorbs less water because it is firmly attached to the GoreTex membrane in a 3-layer structure.

D3O contains intelligent molecules that locks together on impact to absorp and spread the force. D3O is extremly thin and flexible but provides maximum shock absorption.
