SHOEI GLAMSTER 06

“I love the retro styling, the comfort. It's very lightweight and comfortable but It's not too loud.”

The Glamster is Shoei’s first real attempt at blending modern function with classic form, and they have nailed it. It looks the part and is an absolute joy to wear, being both comfortable and very light. It is a beautiful helmet with a small, sleek shell that is free from much of the clutter you’ll find on modern helmets. But make no mistakes; under the hood this helmet has all of the modern safety features that make Shoei such a well-respected name in motorcycle land.


DMD VINTAGE

“That's probably what you've seen me in most. It's just such an easy helmet. It's so stylish, so quick and simple. It's a great shell size, It's very discrete.”

The DMD Vintage open face helmet is aptly named: it stays true to the desirable, sleek shell shapes of 70's open face helmets. It does so while adhering to modern safety features, which is an admirable feat and makes this one of the more popular helmets around the Urban Rider headquarters.


GOLDTOP 1958 LEATHER JACKET

“It doesn't scream motorcycle jacket. It just looks like a leather jacket, a stylish leather jacket but it is CE approved and does come with armour.”

If you've ever had the pleasure of seeing a Goldtop product up close, you know these guys know a thing or two when it comes to leather motorcycle equipment. The 1958 jacket is no different: it is a beautiful short cut leather motorcycle jacket styled after american aviator jackets from the 1950s with a folded collar and clean, fitted lines. The leather used is a beautifully soft leather that is 1.4mm thick. This is thicker than most motorcycle jackets out there, offering excellent protection against road rash. Because Goldtop only select the best hides and dye them using aniline dyes, they keep the leather soft and supple, making their jackets comfortable from the get go.


KNOX ACTION PRO MK2

“This is new to my kit list but I'm very pleased with it. It means I can wear a hoodie, a casual shirt, nothing that's motorcycle oriented over the top and I know that I'm protected.”

The Knox Action Pro MK2 is an extremely low profile, abrasion-resistant armoured shirt designed to fit underneath your riding gear. Featuring super slimline Level 1 Knox Micro-lock armour at the shoulders, elbows, and a Level 2 Micro-lock back armour insert, this base-layer is suitable for other adrenaline-fuelled pursuits too - from skateboarding and skiing, to eBiking through the city streets.


JOHN DOE PIONEER MONO

“I don't need to rave about them too much, you know, you're wearing them. They're a fantastic jean. You can sit very casually and they don't look like a motorcycle jean and yet they are fully protective CE approved jeans.”

The Pioneer jeans are the slim-fit option in the range, combining all-day comfort with huge levels of protection. CE approved to Level AAA (no mean feat!), thanks to John Doe’s proprietary XTM-Fiber® and stretch denim twill blend, these are as comfy as your Sunday trackies, but will literally save your skin. Integrated hip and height-adjustable knee armour pockets, with Level 1 protectors included are there for added safety.


TCX DRIFTER WATERPROOF BOOTS

“They are an incredibly comfortable boot, but my god do you feel invincible in them. I can't wait to put them through their paces.”

The TCX Drifter is the ideal boot for whoever likes to ride anything, anywhere, any condition, any time, for a long time. TCX constructed the Drifter boots around their often praised, ergonomically outstanding Comfort Fit System so you can rest assured that whatever precarious situations your adventures throw at you, your feet will be comfortable.


WATERPROOFS

“I would recommend the Scott waterproofs. I've tried them on, we've tested them and they are fantastic. I would also recommend these - Richa Rain Warrior - if you're on a tighter budget or just looking for something for the occasional rain storm.”

Introducing the Scott Ergonomic Pro DP Rain Jacket and Trousers, a reliable choice for facing Mother Nature's harshest conditions. Crafted by Scott, this rain gear features a stretchable and breathable outer material paired with a laminated DRYOsphere membrane, ensuring an optimal fit and reliable wind and weather protection.

Additional honourable mentions include the Richa Rain Warriors, and all Revit rain gear.

These gloves are designed with a short cuff to provide increased freedom of movement and a reinforced palm made of aramid fiber for exceptional durability.
