Product Details
The Dainese Herosphere Air men's motorcycle jacket is a lightweight, highly ventilated textile jacket for warm-weather road riding. This Black / Red Tarmac colourway combines large mesh panels with certified protection and practical adjustment, making it well suited to summer commutes, day rides and urban or sport-touring use.
This is a ventilated summer jacket, not a waterproof riding jacket. Dainese does include a waterproof inner pocket for a phone or documents, but the mesh outer construction is designed primarily for airflow.
