Tucano Urbano Summer 2009 Collection

Tucano Urbano have recently launched their Summer 2009 collection which includes some great new lightweight jackets and gloves perfect for Spring thru Autumn riding.

We particularly like the Tucano Urbano Technotrench unisex mac, there's no armour, but a great cut and a perfect jacket for on and off your bike teamed with casual or work-wear! If you're sold on the Tucano Urbano brand this is definitely one for your collection.

Other hi-lights include the Matrix Nano jackets for him and for her, along with Shorty Cotton, Shorty Cotton Lady, Rocky and Adriana.

Some say we're in for a great Summer this year (well we do deserve one don't we!) so prepare to look and stay cool out there..........as the tarmac melts! :-)

Armadillo Scarlett Mac Review

Armadillo Scarlett Mac: One of our most popular jackets and proving irresistible as we emerge from the depths of winter.

Bright and stylish - there are plenty of similar red mac's available on the high street but none with the ability to keep the elements out and provide a good degree to protection to the urban scooter rider.

The d3o™ intelligent shock absorption is discreet and pliable, so - while you can remove the elbow and shoulder protection, there's no real need, making Armadillo's Scarlett Mac eminently wearable on or off your ride, and great value not having to swap between two jackets for protection and style!

The Mac is 10,000mm waterproof, 6,000mm breathable and windproof with cuff mittens for chilly mornings, an MP3 pocket and headphone loops plus an internal comms pocket.

Overall - we're not surprised Armadillo's Scarlett Mac is so popular: superior contemporary styling plus fun functionality make this scooter jacket one of the best choices for Spring through Autumn riding.

We're off to stock up!

Tucano Urbano Bora Review

Tucano Urbano Bora: What can we say - our best selling jacket, closely followed by Parka Lady T and Urbana Lady T.

Tucano Urbano's Bora is very similar to the men's Libeccio with it's military styling but cut for the female form.

Gents - it's proven: we're boring! While black if pretty popular in the Bora, the fairer sex seem comfortable with some more colour in their scootering life. The Bora also comes in green, red and sand!

Again a jacket for all seasons, with removable winter padding and ready bike/street wearability!

Good choice ladies!

Tucano Urbano Libeccio Review

Tucano Urbano Libeccio: We could review something we have gathering dust on the shelves with a view to shifting it, but we don't have anything like that, so thought it appropriate to review some of our most popular items - after all there must be good reason for folk to keep coming back for more!

Tucano Urbano's Libeccio Scooter Jacket is our best selling men's scooter jacket, closely followed by the Urbis T and Parka T. The Libeccio is truly a jacket for all seasons and is eminently wearable on or off your ride.

The Libeccio comes with full CE approved shoulder and elbow protection plus back protective padding - it's all removeable, so if you've covered your bike up for a couple of weeks, just whip the armour out and it's good for the pub, the high street or that weeekend away! Oh, and the outer shell is fully breathable and waterproof, with a hood tucked into the collar for added protection.

About 50% of the Libeccio's we supply are black, but don't discount the other colours, they're smart and colourful without being garish - there's black, green, red, sand and blue.

Overall - we're seriously impressed with the Libeccio - it's quickly become 'the' requisite scooter clothing, with it's military styling and slightly fitted shape, this one should be back year after year.
