Our patented innovations all start from the principle that controllable air-flow and protection don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Crash forces twist an oversized garment around, with the protection areas likely to move away from points of contact, leaving little or no benefit from having the armor in the first place. See this and you'll know that any protective armor in the jacket has probably shifted. Most so-called vent systems were nothing more than zipper slits - when open they expanded the jacket shell forming an air brake around the rider. Until another Vanson innovation solved the problem.

We’ve all seen a guy like this – jacket filled with air, holding onto the bars for dear life with the wind trying to rip him off his bike. As Miss Vikki in the Vanson Showroom once said: “If a Cobra 2 and a Drifter had a baby – what would you get? You’d get a DRAC!”īack in 1995, when we first worked on designs with variable venting, the idea was to allow airflow into the jacket to cool the rider without creating a billowing puffed-up bag of humanity coming down the road.
