Indian_mesh_jackets_press_release_EMEA

As the riding season gets underway, Indian Motorcycle dealerships are now stocking a range of three different jackets that are perfect for those warm summer rides.

The lightweight mesh fabric used in the following jackets allows a cooling airflow to pass through to the rider. In colder weather the rider can attach the removable windproof liner that provides a barrier to the elements.

Here’s the range:

SPRINGFIELD MESH JACKET (#2863713)

During the late 1940s and in the 1950s, Indian Motorcycle dominated dirt and road racing courses. The brand won three straight Springfield Mile victories during that time. The Springfield Mile is a one-mile-long clay oval motor racetrack on the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield. This jacket pays tribute to Indian’s racing history in Springfield and has a classic look but is made with modern materials. Full mesh panels allow maximum airflow for riding in warm weather. Jacket details include leather panels on the shoulder and elbow areas along with an embroidered and applique chest logo. A removable lightweight windproof liner offers insulation when the temperature drops. The jacket also includes removable CE certified armour in the shoulders and elbows. A women’s version of this jacket is available. Men’s sizes S-3XL, women’s sizes XS-3XL

LIGHTWEIGHT MESH JACKET (#2865215)

Many owners buy one of our motorcycles to ride on long cruises in warm weather, so Indian knew it would have to come up with lightweight jacket to keep them cool. This retro styled mesh riding jacket has bold branding to the chest and back and a full mesh construction. It also includes removable CE armour for the shoulders and elbows along with a removable windproof liner for when the temperature drops. Sizes S-3XL

PERFORATED ROUTE JACKET (#2865214)

Look very closely and you’ll see that this jacket has tiny holes perforated in to the leather. It means that riders still have the look and protection of leather but stay cool from the air filtering in. A removable quilted liner can be worn underneath for when the temperature drops off. There’s also removable CE armour, several convenient pockets and colourful Indian Motorcycle branding.
Sizes S-3XL

MEN’S MESH GLOVES (#2863722)

The leather palm of these give a good grip but the really neat aspect is the mesh fabric back panel that allows a cooling airflow to pass through and keep hands comfortable during warm weather riding. Shell: 42% leather, 35% polyester, 21% nylon, 2% Spandex. Lining: 100% polyester. Mesh panels are combined with leather; gel padded palm; Velcro wrist closure with Indian Motorcycle branding.
