RETRO RIDING JACKET FOR YOUNGSTERS

AA-rated textile riding jacket for junior riders from Duchinni Youth

New to the Duchinni Youth range, the Michigan textile jacket wraps up modern safety, comfort and practicality in seriously cool ‘old-skool’ styling that young pillion riders will love to wear, on or off the bike.

Like all the clothing in the Duchinni collection, the Michigan is made to the same high standards as adult motorcycle clothing.

Rated AA for safety, it has a tough and durable 600D outer shell and comes with a CE-approved back protector and armour at the shoulder and elbow as standard.

The Michigan’s retro styling will appeal to all ages, with contrasting leather arm stripes, diamond-quilted panels and vintage-styled YKK zips.

A comfy passenger is a happy passenger, so the Michigan is waterproof, windproof and breathable, with a removable 75gsm quilted thermal liner to deal with all weather conditions.

The collar is trimmed with soft Neoprene® and there are two zipped hand-warmer pockets to keep fingers warm when off the bike.

There’s plenty of adjustment at the waist, collar and cuffs, plus zipped 3 cm extension panels on each sleeve to accommodate growth spurts – a very welcome feature for budget-conscious parents.

Two zipped chest pockets on the outside and three internal pockets provide plenty of places for young riders to stash their treasured items.

The Duchinni Michigan retails at a recommended £139.99 and comes in a range of sizes catering for youngsters from 6 to 16 years old.

Duchinni Grid Youth Jacket for Young Riders

Rated AA for protection, this stylish waterproof jacket is designed exclusively for junior riders.

Stylish, comfy, weatherproof – and made to the same high safety standards as adult motorcycle clothing – the Duchinni Youth Grid Textile Jacket puts younger motorcycle passengers in pole position.

There’s no minimum legal age for children to ride as pillions in the UK, although they must meet certain safety requirements. They need to wear a properly fitting helmet, be able to sit securely on the motorcycle seat with their feet on the footrests and hold on firmly.

Responsible parents will also want them to wear quality protective gear and Duchinni has responded to this with a range of clothing and boots designed exclusively for 6-15 year olds.

AA-rated for peace of mind

Made to the same exacting standards as adult motorcycle clothing, the Grid is tested and approved to the AA rating for safety.

The outer shell is a tough and durable 600D fabric, and it comes with CE Level 2 shoulder and elbow armour and a Level 1 back-protector as standard.

Grows with the wearer

A welcome feature for budget-conscious parents, the Grid has zipped 3cm sleeve extension panels, as well as adjustment at the waist and cuffs, to accommodate growth spurts.

Weatherproofing built-in

Speaking of comfort, there’s a 75gsm quilted thermal liner and the fleece-lined and Neoprene® trimmed collar adds an extra element of luxury. A waterproof and breathable membrane keeps rain out but still allows the body to breathe naturally.

Retailing for £99.99, the Duchinni Youth Grid comes in children’s sizes XS-XL, in a choice of Black/Gun, Back/Neon Yellow and Black/Red. All colour options come with reflective detailing for added safety and removable embroidered logo/flag badges, so the wearer can customise their look. Find further information at duchinni.com

DUCHINNI’S BRIGHT IDEA FOR KIDS

Weatherproof and with huge reflective panels on the front, back, sleeves and hood, the Duchinni Volt helps younger riders stay dry and stand out – on and off the bike.

Made from rugged Ripstop textile, with taped and welded seams, the Volt can be easily rolled up and stashed in a rucksack or bike luggage, ready for action in damp or dark conditions.

Extra-large silver panels front and rear, plus silver sleeves, have a 360-degree reflective coating that shines brightly when caught in a vehicle’s headlights, helping the wearer stand out on murky days and dark nights.

The drawstring hood is also reflective and can be removed, so it won’t flap around when riding, making the Volt suitable for a range of outdoor activities, such as cycling, walking and school trips.

Mesh lined, with elasticated cuffs, the Volt is quick and easy to get on and off, and includes two external zipped pockets, to safely carry essential items (or treats!).

The Duchinni Volt comes in junior Sizes XS (32″) to XL (38″).

Duchinni Jago Jacket is Kids Tough

Keeping fast-growing youngsters in good quality riding gear can be a very costly business, so Duchinni designed their Jago Youth Jacket to grow along with them

Keeping fast-growing youngsters in good quality riding gear can be a very costly business, so Duchinni designed their Jago Youth Jacket to grow along with them.

Each arm has a zipped panel, which extends when opened, making the sleeve up to 3 cm longer. Sleeves can also be adjusted for width, as can the waist, collar and cuffs, for a safe, snug and comfortable fit.  

When it comes to protection, the Jago is AA rated for safety, just like the adult motorcycle jackets, and is fitted with Level 2 CE-approved shoulder and elbow armour as standard, for complete peace of mind.

Keeping the young rider warm and dry is taken care of with a quilted thermal lining and breathable, waterproof and windproof drop-liner. In warmer weather, the thermal lining can be removed and vents at the front, rear and arm opened to allow cooling airflow.

Now available in five colour choices – Black, Black/Red, Black/Neon, Black/Camo and Black/Purple – the Jago comes in children’s sizes XS-XL (32”-38” chest).

Matching Imola textile trousers (£79.99), with leg extender panels, and Bambino gloves (£34.99), are also available..

New range-topping Duchinni helmet

Duchinni’s top-end helmet for 2020, the new D1300, has an advanced fiberglass shell and premium-level features, for a very accessible price.

The outer shell is made from advanced fiberglass, with aerodynamic sculpting for cleaner airflow, reduced head movement and noise. Combined with the low weight, at just 1480g, the D1300 is comfortable to wear on long-distance trips and high speed blasts.

Airflow inside the helmet is maximised, with vents that feed a cooling breeze through advanced channelling in the EPS liner to exhausts at the rear.

There’s also a high quality textile lining, which is removable and washable, for season-long freshness and comfort.

An anti-scratch, double curvature visor – with tool-free release – gives a clear view of the road ahead and wide peripheral vision. Behind that sits a drop-down internal sun-visor, which is easily operated with a gloved hand.

A breath deflector and chin curtain come as standard and the D1300 is held securely in place with an adjustable micrometric buckle.
