“Save your own lifeâ€Â, more than a company mission, almost a must for the Dainese company that has made the world of protection its primary concern since 1972. Dianese is no stranger to innovation, and is currently working air bags for motorcycle helmets and a skin tight space suite (with M.I.T.) for a trip to Mars. They are also happy to announce that they have expanded their lines of protective gear beyond motor and winter sports to include cycling. The new Velocity, Freeride, and Downhill projects offer hard, ergonomic and breathable protectors for extreme off-road use and clothing that competes the latest-generation soft protectors.
Above are the FAST GAIT T-SHIRT and FAST GAIT SHORTS. The jersey is Lycra with incorporated reinforcements on the shoulders in innovative shape memory retention Crash Absorb material (water-repellent elastic-visco nitrile rubber). This material does not reduce comfort in any way and ensures protection in case of fall. Inserts in honeycomb Lycra ensure the greatest breathability. The shorts are a breathable, ladder-proof Lycra and polyester with the Crash Absorb material on the femur. It also has inserts of honeycomb Lycra fabric inside the leg for the maximum aeration and a tour seat with Elastic Interface® Technology.
