Historically, the Helstons brand has made itself known in the motorcycle world thanks to its very elegant leather jackets and gloves. Although leather is still fashionable, it's simply not a practical choice, especially for those living in more temperate regions.
That's why French brand Helstons has expanded its collection to include textile jackets that don't skimp on style, while offering equivalent, or even better, levels of protection than its leather jackets. The latest product in the Helstons textile jacket range is the Lynx, a simple yet stylish jacket perfect for everyday wear.
The Lynx takes us into the world of the Air Force by revisiting the bomber. It's a timeless design perfect for all neo-retro motorcycles. Like all Helstons products, this jacket offers the maximum level of protection and is made from abrasion resistant material. It features ribbed sections at the cuffs, waist and collar, as well as leather panels on the upper shoulders that not only provide extra reinforcement, but add an aesthetic touch.
Delving into the technical details, the Helstons Lynx jacket offers standard protection on the elbows, shoulders and back, all CE approved, of course. There is also the possibility of upgrading the back protection to a level 2 version, for more safety. The back protector as well as all the inserts for the protections are hidden under the outer layer. This means that all this protection is present without compromising the style of the jacket, to remain stylish both on the bike and on foot.
Helstons offers the Lynx Jacket in sizes from S to 4XL. It is available in two colors, blue or gray. Regarding prices, the jacket is available for €239.
