Richa Armada 11 Gore-Tex Pro Jacket

Description

The Richa Armada 1.1 Gore-Tex jacket is our top-of-the-line item for the adventure rider who wants to be prepared for anything Mother Nature throws at them and does not want to take any chances. Some call this a full battle suit.

Even sport touring riders will appreciate all the features and functionality on offer whether they ride across town or around the world. Our Armada 1.1 Pro builds on our experience with the earlier model Armada to ensure it is everything you need, and more.

The polyamide chassis is built truck-tough to stand up to anything and is lined with genuine Gore-Tex to make it waterproof and highly breathable. The lining is polyester and polyamide for comfort and throughout the exterior construction are panels of varying patterns. In wear spots, like forearms, elbows, pocket flap edges, vent edges, and shoulders are shark skin-like Superfabric patches that are designed to repel wear.

The 3/4 jacket length offers great body coverage and the YKK heavy-duty main zipper does double duty by allowing it to be unzipped from the bottom for best comfort seated on your moto.

Choose your own base layer with this jacket as none is included. Our buyers no longer want the old style, zip out base layers as was once common. We offer some great items for this.

Pair this jacket with our Richa Armada 1.1 Gore-Tex Pro trousers and know that you are wearing the best, most thought out, adventure suit on the planet.

at the wrist should riders want to seal the wrists even tighter.

Neoprene lined soft collar. Seals the neck tab with hook and loop allowing
adjustment to any size

Collar loop end to attach to a hook along the neck to hold the tab open on hot days
and avoid flapping in the wind.

Decorative and reflective silver elements on the forearms, shoulders, back and front
to aid visibility.

Standard D3O brand protectors. The back protector is Level 2 (EN1621-2:2014)
Viper Pro and the shoulders and elbows are Level 2 (EN1621-1:2012) EVO Pro X.

One-inch-wide mesh draft flap with its own zipper so the rider can choose to seal up
the front with the main zipper or use the draft flap zipper to allow this full-length vent
to aid cooling.

Unique upper chest/breast vents are held closed by a vertical zipper, horizontal hook
and loop, and a magnet on the lower/inner corners. When fully opened the lower
corner has a stud that mates with a receiver so when folded up and opened it is easy
to hook the stud in the receiver and, when things get chilly one hand can unhook the
stud and the flap will close and stay closed with the magnet in the corner so riders
neednt stop to zip up. This allows secure sealing when desired yet it is easy to open
and close during riding when conditions change.

Two unique mid-chest 4-inch vertical vents backed by a mesh liner on both sides of
the main zipper

Sleeve-end gussets are mesh backed and unzip from both ends

Sleeve ends have elastic gaiters to keep out drafts and are non-removeable.

1621-3:2018) divided chest protectors for enhanced torso protection. Can be
repurposed.
