Leather Motorcycle Jacket Buyers Guide Dainese Montone
A Buyer's Guide to Leather Jackets - More Than Skin Deep
Dainese Montone $1299
Dainese's Montone is really a thing of beauty, from its stylish exterior to its fortified interior. And speaking of exterior, the Montone's is sheepskin. For those of you unfamiliar with it, sheepskin is very soft, windproof and naturally water-resistant. Contrasting with the rich brown of the sheepskin body is a patterned dark-brown cowhide on the inside of the arms and the sleeve gussets. The Montone keeps the bells and whistles to a minimum: There are only three pockets, two outer and one inner, all zippered, and a Velcro-type closure at the throat. There's no skimping on quality, from the heavy-duty metal zipper with wind flap to the stitching and like-buttah sheepskin. Dainese is well known for covering many of the top MotoGP racers in its hides, and the Montone benefits from that experience, with CE-approved armor in the shoulders, elbows and down most of the forearm, and substantial padding all the way to the wrist. Not only is the armor removable, but it can be adjusted via Velcro so it's in the optimal position for your body. The inner fleece isn't wool but polyester.
