When the development process started for the Trench GTX, our aim was to create a fashionable city motorcycle jacket with all the functional and protective features you normally find only in high-end touring motorcycle jackets. It would be a motorcycle jacket designed for long-distance, metropolitan commuters that ride 365 days a year on two wheels, in any type of weather imaginable. Mission: Accomplished.

The laminated GORE-TEX® outer shell is extremely breathable and, as you would expect, 100% waterproof. Being a laminated outer shell, the water pick-up is virtually non-existent, so the motorcycle jacket stays dry and lightweight all the time. This plays a huge role in preventing hypothermia during winter or colder rides. When used without the included thermal liner, there’s an unsurpassed breathability making this motorcycle jacket comfortable to wear in warmer conditions. Thus, you have here an almost four-season motorcycle jacket, with the exception of extreme heat.

Unparalleled, on-demand airflow is provided by our patented VCS|aquadefence ventilation system, conveniently positioned at the chest, yet nicely integrated into the design. Hot and humid air that could potentially get trapped inside the motorcycle jacket can easily escape through the air outlet vents around back. In terms of protection, the Trench GTX motorcycle jacket has got it all. SEEFLEX™ CE-level 2 armor is found at the elbows and shoulders, and it’s also prepared for the SEESOFT™ CE-level 2 back protector.
