Airbag Vest Helite Turtle Extra Wide
Airbag Vest Helite Turtle Extra Wide is a 3in1 vest providing a revolutionary level of protection. The main advantage is the presence of inflatable airbag system, which can absorb impacts on the upper body and ensures effective dispersion of energy. Potential head impacts will occur in lower speed and with delay, thus head will be protected against traumatic brain injury. Moreover, the head and spine will stay fixed in a natural upright position so that neck vertebras can’t get injured by hyperflexion. The vest is also equipped with a back protector which acts like a turtle shell. The result is increased protection against tearing and full dispersion of force over the surface. Fort high comfort Airbag Vest Helite Turtle Wide is equipped with inner mesh for better air circulation and the system of buckles and Velcro straps for easy size adjustment and easy fastening with motorcycle gloves on. Another practical feature is its large reflective applications which increase the passive safety while riding in poor light conditions.

Airbag Vest Helite Turtle Extra Wide - Product parameters
With most moto clothing, ventilation is provided via permeable and breathable material. Ventilation ensures sweat release and allows the skin to breathe better. That's why ventilated clothing is more pleasant to wear.
Detachable layer can be found in a large number of motorcycle jackets. This type of a jacket is suitable for both winter and summer because the layer can be easily detached from the jacket. The layer is usually insulated and as such provides warmth and comfort, even in colder weather. Its advantage is that it is easily washable.
Quality protectors over the right places prevent injuries during falls. All protectors have been tested to meet the corresponding CE standards. CE certification is given to products that meet required standards for a selected type of product.
Reflective features exponentially increase the user's visibility. They are suitable especially for winter months that come with mists and early sunset. However, they shouldn't be forgotten even during summer.
Reflective features on clothing items usually take the form of a reflective lettering or stripes that don't clash with regular wear.
Jacket and trousers are secured together by special zippers along the trousers' circumference. Together they make up a comfortable jumpsuit. The complete ensemble provides better protection and prevents wind or water from getting in. For this connection to work, you need trousers with the same type of zipper, preferably of the same brand and model. If you are not sure your chosen trousers and jacket fit together, feel free to contact our customer support.
Removable protectors are great for those who plan on using their motorcycle clothing casually as well. Without the protectors, your movement won't be limited in any way and the jacket or trousers will be lighter and more comfortable. It is also easier to wash clothes without protectors.
