The Ducati Corse |D|air® C2 riding suit made by Dainese in the exclusive Ducati Corse livery is equipped with an integrated airbag that, in synergy with the existing protections in the professional suit, covers the shoulders, neck, collarbones and upper chest. Made of D-skin 2.0 full-grain cowhide leather, it has been upgraded with a super-ergonomic construction of the arms and knees, equipped with steel plates integrated directly into the leather and interchangeable sliders. CE-certified, it is the ideal garment for the track thanks to an integrated electronic system that allows the rider to download and verify key performance data like lean angle and speed.
A material traditionally used in motorcycling clothing that offers a good level of breathability and guarantees increased abrasion resistance. It is a product that, starting from different bases, requires a complex series of manufacturing processes to ensure constant standards in terms of aesthetics and safety. The variation in thickness has a bearing on the perception of softness and resistance to tearing and abrasion. A thinner leather is more comfortable but is used for less technical products because it is less resistant. A thicker leather is more rigid but more resistant to tearing and abrasion. The characteristics also vary according to which part of the leather is used to produce the article.
Glossy finished kangaroo leather (thickness mm 0.9 +/- 0.1), it stands out for excellent tear and abrasion resistance. Among the materials currently in use for racing suits, kangaroo leather stands out for the best mechanical resistance to lightness ratio.
The leather is 0.9 mm (1/32”) thick, making it 25% thinner than cowhide for motorcycle sport use. The same is obviously true for its weight:
One square meter of kangaroo leather weighs just 600 grams (1.32 lbs) and resists to abrasion for 5 seconds
• Excellent tear and abrasion resistance > high protection in case of falls
• Reduced leather thickness > lighter suit > better comfort, especially in case of prolonged use
• Reduced leather thickness > superior fit > the suit better accommodates the racer’s movement

Buffalo leather is used in motorcycle apparel thanks to its durability, flexibility and appearance.
Thickness 0,9 +/- 0,1 mm.
The leather is barrel-dyed and then slightly sprayed.
This maintains the natural characteristics of the leather and gives the garment a worn appearance in a short time, thanks to the slight contrast between the black barrel and the sprayed one.
Tough and durable > good abrasion resistance, tear resistance and tensile strength > good protection in case of falls/ skidding
• Soft and flexible > comfortable and pleasant to the touch
• Particular texture and appearance > pleasant touch & feel
Excluding sports use, the use of fabric in motorcycle clothing is increasing rapidly. Thanks to a huge range of materials and technical solutions, products of different weight, volume and technicality can be produced, all designed for specific types of bike usage or for very different climates at prices that are more contained than for similar leather pieces.
• Stretch technical fabric made of high-tenacity 6.6 Nylon in the warp and stretch 6.6 Nylon in the weft
• Nanotechnology-based finish is used to obtain non-iron, water and oil-repellent fabric

• Excellent tenacity, high abrasion, wrinkle and heat resistance, high resilience, minimal moisture regain and good resistance to chemical and physical agents. Due to all of these features, polyester is used either pure or combined with other natural, man-made or synthetic fibers.
• More specifically, the polyester used in Ducati summer clothing items has an abrasion resistance of 450 cycles. Weight makes garments less prone to ballooning up at high speeds. A double polyurethane coating on the inside provides wind resistance, breathability and good water repellent properties.
• Excellent tenacity and high resilience > dimensional stability (no shrinking)

100% polyester twill fabric, 280 g/m2, abrasion resistant (1450 Martindale cycles, UNI EN ISO 388/2004), waterproofed.
Twill is a type of fabric with a textile weave characterized by an aesthetically pleasing diagonal pattern. This weave grants the fabric softness and good deformability, features that make garments produced with it both comfortable and resistant.
• Softness of fabric > garments adapt to body movement > excellent ergonomics
• Abrasion resistant > excellent protection in case of falls or slides
• Natural look > eye-pleasing
• Waterproofing > garments will not get soaked in rainy conditions
Softshell fabric is a combination of 3 different layers overlapped on one another (polyester outer face, membrane in the middle and micro-fleece inner face). The three layers are pressed together in a laminating machine.
Heat and pressure are applied to the top and bottom layers to bond them together with the breathable membrane in-between.
Each of the three layers fulfills a specific function:
• the tight and elastic weaving of the outer layer provides wind-cutting and water repellent properties.
• the middle layer membrane determines the garment performance: depending on the needs, some products are wind proof and breathable, others waterproof and breathable
• the micro-fleece inner layer keeps the body warm and lends the fabric a soft and pleasant touch.
• The unique construction of this fabric ensures breathability and keeps out the elements
• Great resilience > In order to fulfill its functions, a Softshell garment must hug the body and flow with its movements > slim fit, great comfort and excellent material performance
• Excellent color fastness and dimensional stability > product features remain unaltered through time
• Textile fibre of vegetable origin
• Characterised by good skin friendliness
• Disperses heat quite easily
• Highly hygienic
• Comfort
• Softness
• Pleasant to the touch
• Mixed fabric
• Due to their higher tension, the bottom warp threads push the weft threads down forming a depression, while the loose threads remain on the surface and create a relief. This creates a quilted effect, enhanced by the softer padding of the weft yarn, also called honeycomb structure.

• Fibre obtained from Merino sheep
• This type of wool is particularly prized for its fineness, due to the fact that the hair of a merino sheep is thinner than the hair of a common sheep
• Because a merino wool garment is lighter than an ordinary wool garment, it can be worn in warmer seasons too
• Wear resistance (more resistant that common wool)
• Crease resistance (creases less than common wool)
• Lightweight
• Great water absorption capacity
• Made with two warps and a weft. The first warp forms the basis of the fabric, the second warp forms the effect which is better known as loop. The shearing consists in cutting the upper part of the loop, thus lending the terry cloth a velvet-like texture
• Great water absorption capacity
• Extreme softness with velvet effect
• Pleasant to the touch
The linings, whether fixed or detachable, offer an important contribution to the comfort of the garment and therefore to the well-being and safety of the motorcyclist. They are made with technical fabrics that, depending on the use of the garment, cool, warm or help maintain the body’s microclimate.
Membranes are a fundamental functional element for many items in the collection. Whether they are laminated on the outer layer or removable, they are made of high quality materials that offer waterproofness and/or protection from the wind while maintaining great breathability and excellent comfort.
Thanks to this special three-dimensional lining, an air chamber forms between the outside and inside of the garment, in order to provide an ideal microclimate.
• Good inner ventilation > fast drying in warm weather
• Good insulation at mild temperatures > as the outer temperature varies, it is not necessary to add or remove the thermal lining
• Excellent fit > does not require the addition of a further thermal lining, which would modify the garment’s fit
• Innovative bacteriostatic polyester lining developed using nanotechnology

Windout is a wind-proof, breathable membrane designed to protect against the wind-chill effect (i.e. the heat loss perceived by the human body when exposed to the combined effects of low temperatures and wind.
As a matter of fact, the cooling effect of the wind makes the human body feel colder than the actual air temperature).
Made from 120 g/sq m polyamide fabric with water repellent treatment on the outside and breathable, windstopper inner coating.
