This motorcycle jacket is suitable for the motorcyclist who rides all year round in all weather conditions. 100% Waterproof guaranteed due to the GoreTex® membrane!
The Held Imola ST GTX motorcycle jacket is a sporty Gore-Tex jacket and suitable for the motorcycle rider who rides all year round in all weather conditions. The jacket has a perfect fit: the front of this motorcycle jacket is slightly shorter and the back slightly longer, which is ideal for your forward position on a sports motorcycle.
The jacket is also equipped with SAS-TEC® protectors which are CE-approved and wear comfortably. The Held Imola ST is entirely made of the highly wear-resistant DuPont® Cordura 500D. Due to the breathability of the Gore-tex membrane and the ventilation possibilities, the jacket is very comfortable to wear under all circumstances. With the Clip-In Technology you can install a thermal liner yourself. (Note: this is not included)

Removable GTX Liner
In garments with a removable GTX liner, the waterproof membrane is separate from the jacket or pants. This offers flexibility, as the liner can be removed in warmer conditions. In the rain, the rider stays dry, but the outer fabric can absorb water, making the garment heavier and colder, and increasing drying time.
Z-Liner GTX
With a fixed Z-liner, the GTX membrane is permanently placed between the inner lining and the outer shell. This system offers greater convenience since nothing needs to be removed. However, similar to a removable liner, the outer fabric can still become saturated during rain.
Laminated GTX
With laminated GTX, the membrane is directly bonded to the outer fabric. This prevents the material from absorbing water, causing rain to bead off the surface. The result is a lighter garment that dries faster and cools less in wet conditions. Laminated GORE-TEX is often chosen by riders who commute daily or frequently ride in changing weather conditions. Because this construction is less flexible, effective ventilation is essential for comfort on warm days.
Laminated 2-Layer and 3-Layer
Within laminated GTX, a distinction is made between 2-layer (2L) and 3-layer (3L) constructions. In 2-layer GTX, the membrane is laminated to the outer fabric and protected by a separate inner lining. In 3-layer GTX, the membrane is permanently bonded to both the outer fabric and the inner lining. This prevents layer movement, reduces wear, and increases durability, especially during intensive use.
