Cordura® is one of the most popular fabrics used in motorcycle gear, known for its exceptional durability and abrasion resistance. Made from high-tenacity nylon, Cordura® is engineered to withstand harsh conditions, making it ideal for riders who need gear that can handle high-speed slides or rough terrain.
At Cupola, we use Cordura® in many of our motorcycle jackets and pants, ensuring maximum protection for riders in the event of an accident.
Kevlar® is synonymous with toughness and is often used in motorcycle garments to provide extra protection in high-impact areas. Known for its lightweight strength and heat resistance, Kevlar® is woven into key sections of gear like elbows, shoulders, knees, and back to offer reinforced protection without sacrificing comfort.
Cupola integrates Kevlar® into the design of our textile jackets to offer superior protection in critical areas, keeping you safe during unforeseen accidents.
When it comes to all-weather riding, GORE-TEX® is the go-to fabric. This high-performance material provides a perfect balance between waterproofing and breathability, ensuring that you stay dry and comfortable in both wet and dry conditions.
Cupola uses GORE-TEX® in our jackets and pants to give riders peace of mind during unpredictable weather, ensuring a dry and comfortable ride no matter the conditions.
Polyester is a versatile fabric often used in motorcycle garments for its lightweight nature and affordability. While not as abrasion-resistant as Cordura® or Kevlar®, polyester is still widely used for casual riding gear or in areas that require flexibility and comfort.
At Cupola, we use polyester in some of our urban-style jackets where comfort and style are just as important as protection.
When riding in hot conditions, staying cool is essential. That’s why we use mesh fabrics in our summer motorcycle jackets to provide maximum airflow. Mesh allows air to flow freely through the jacket, preventing overheating during long rides.
Cupola’s mesh jackets are designed for optimal ventilation while still offering the necessary protection for safe riding.
Softshell fabrics are ideal for riders looking for a balance between protection and comfort. Known for their stretchy, lightweight, and breathable properties, softshell jackets provide excellent wind resistance while remaining flexible enough for comfortable long-distance riding.
At Cupola, we incorporate softshell fabrics into some of our jackets to ensure riders experience comfort without compromising on style or functionality.
Often used in collars, cuffs, and storm flaps, neoprene is a stretchy, weatherproof material that provides excellent water and wind resistance. While it’s typically used in small areas of the jacket, neoprene adds a touch of comfort and protection in places where flexibility is key.
Neoprene is one of the many specialized materials used in Cupola jackets to enhance comfort and performance.
