Reliably cool: Motorcycle clothing from France

The French firm Segura was established in 1967 and made a name for itself in the 70s as outfitter to numerous motorcycle racers. Segura has more than half a century of experience when it comes to professional protective gear for motorcycle riders. Today Segura specialises mainly in retro style, but still attaches the greatest importance to maximum safety in actual use on a motorcycle. So, of course, the entire Segura collection is CE certified. And the design: Ultra cool, très chic, just typically French!

Most traditional, high-quality outer material with cult status for motorcycle clothing and accessories. Unmistakable in its natural, high-quality look, the strong image, ideally suited to both figure-hugging and highly functional designs. The biker's "second skin" still has the edge over any textile material when it comes to safety and resistance to abrasion and tearing. The way the material stretches as the clothing is worn means that leather clothing adapts to the body contours ideally, thus also guaranteeing that protectors fit optimally. Leather clothing should therefore always be bought with a close fit. Impregnation, leather oil and surface coatings guarantee good weather protection and a degree of rainproofing, but unfortunately also limit the breathability. Relatively heavy, but enthusiasts value this as a "quality feature". Looked after properly, it is very durable. Because leather does not itself offer much thermal insulation, the other features of the garment, or the base layers of clothing, must provide some help here.
