Halvarssons Wien jacket in black (HAL722)
£449.00
Product Information
The Halvarssons Wien jacket is the CE approved replacement for the company's longstanding and hugely popular Prime jacket. Like the Prime, the Wien is constructed using a drop-liner membrane. The outer fabric is slightly more abrasion resistant than that used in the Prime but, as ever with Halvarssons, the material is backed in all the most vulnerable areas with a lining known as Hi-Art that increases the strength of the outer material by 500%. For warmth, the Wien comes lined with Outlast, but you also get an inner thermal jacket, made from Innoborne, that can be worn separately. Venting on the Wien is excellent, with two openings on the chest and an exhaust vent across the back. For fit, the Wien has adjustable, elasticated straps on both flanks, and it is this feature, in particular, that made its predecessor so wearable. Level 2 armour comes fitted in the elbows and shoulders. There's a pocket for a back protector, but we prefer to fit our own D30 protector that has been modified to take Velcro, rather than Halvarssons own, somewhat heavy protector. Obviously, the Wien can be zipped to any Halvarssons pant, but again we prefer to match the Wien with the laminated Wish pant rather than their drop-liner Wien trouser. We always opined that the Prime jacket with its Prince pant was the perfect combination for 95% of riders. We feel the same about its replacement: the Wien and Wish.
