As part of the growing laminate range within Merlin’s Explorer Collection, the Sayan arrives as a timeless classic with leather overlays to the shoulders and elbows in a classic British four-pocket style. Designed and tested with adventure in mind, this is a lightweight, durable and versatile jacket that is equally suited for an inner-city commute as it is for a two-wheeled adventure off the beaten path.
The Sayan comes equipped with an impressive five-piece set of D3O armour, pre-fitted to the garment with pockets for additional chest protectors. This, in combination with its rugged outer shell, grants the jacket a CE Level AA safety rating.
The AquaSeal+ 2L waterproof membrane is laminated with the outer layer, meaning the Sayan is completely waterproof and the outer won’t wet out in heavy rainfall. The material itself is breathable, but is aided by closable vents on the chest, biceps and back for those sunny rides.
Merlin have found the sweet spot where functionality meets style, making the Sayan a capable motorcycle jacket that will not look out of place off the bike either.

- Let Down by Velcro! 1 people found this helpfulReal shame. The overall feel and look of this jacket was exactly what I wanted. But massively let down by the cheap Velcro closures on the neck and the bottom of the jacket. It kept coming undone on the very first outing, and I imagine that it wouldn’t get any better over time. This would have been the perfect jacket if it had a button closure or better quality Velcro
- Good but definitely not perfect 0 people found this helpfulThis jacket is incredibly warm and I think it looks great. The zip in thermal liner does a good job and the armour feels very well placed, secure and comfortable. Unfortunately on my jacket within three days part of the pocket came unstitched which I had to have repaired myself. Although the jacket feels good quality overall this has diminished my trust in how well it’s made. The jacket has very little in the way of reflectivity which means it can leave you feeling a bit invisible particularly when dark. I’ve also found that the openings to the lower pockets are incredibly tight. The cuffs could have used more Velcro as they regularly come undone if not secured carefully.
- Great textile jacket 0 people found this helpfulReally like the jacket. Easy to remove the inner layer or add back in for those cold riding days. Feels comfortable with plenty of pockets. The fabric looks very nice as well and it doesn;t make you look too bulky like some other jackets. The weight also feels reasonable given the armor it comes with (have tried a different Merlin jacket which felt awfully heavy by comparison).
- It’s lovely, but.. 0 people found this helpfulTruly is a great looking jacket, and ticks all the boxes. Warm, waterproof and great D30 Armour. My only slight gripe is the fitting, the shoulders tend to lift up while in the riding position and it ends up looking like you’ve huge shoulder pads on. Maybe that’s just me tho, but none of my other jackets do this..
- Nice jacket 0 people found this helpfulJacket looks very good and is not too bulky. Quite comfortable to wear. Not worn it in wet conditions yet but I expect it would do fine. Had to size up versus what the measurements suggested so be aware of that when ordering. Returns process was quite easy for Urban Rider so I would happily use them again.
