Advice & Guides If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...
Chase freedom as you carve your way through city traffic with enhanced freedom of movement of the Distec: a hooded jacket with Macna's patented Confold™ construction that makes it convertible into a backpack.
Seek Out the Sun
The Distec jacket is designed for good weather and made of Macna's Armour Stretch™ fabric, enabling you to move around as much as you need to. Its hood is detachable, but you can also secure it in the Hood Holder™ at the back if you like to be prepared for rain after parking. Both choices prevent the hood from flapping around, just like the Hood String Holders™ at the front secure its strings.
One of a Kind
This jacket is one of a kind because of Macna's patented Confold™ construction that enables you to turn it into a functional backpack so you've got your hands free after parking. The backpack is fitted with a Helmet Loop™ to which you can attach your helmet, and it provides enough space for your gloves and essentials.
At the back, Macna have fitted their Belt Loop™ that enables you to connect the jacket to the belt of your jeans. Its wrists are equipped with Thumb Loops to prevent the sleeves from creeping up, and the Card Pocket on the lower left arm can be used to store your ID, back card, or other means of payment or identification. The Zip Grip™ at the bottom of the main zip makes it easy to insert and close when you're wearing gloves.
Armour
The Distec is equipped with CE certified (level 1) R.I.S.C™ protectors at the elbows and shoulders. On the outside of the shoulders, Macna have opted for additional R.I.S.C™ caps that are flexible. A R.I.S.C™ back protector is separately available and easily placed in the designated compartment.
