Scooter clothing - Tucano Urbano
Posted: Sat Mar 08, 2014 11:57 pm
Just a quick recommendation, I decided as it was my second winter with the SH125i I would buy some specific scooter clothing with an aim of allowing me to use the scooter occasionally for commuting without having to change into different clothes once I got to work (my work wear is shirt and chinos).
I ordered the Tucano Urbano Urbis 4g Jacket (a bit of a mouthful granted) in brown, with body armour, and its a lovely warm jacket and it shows that its been improved over previous versions. Nothing bad I could say about it at all.

I also ordered the trousers that go with this, which allow you to zip yourself in and out of them without taking your shoes/boots off as they have zips and velcro up the sides of both legs. These are a brilliant idea, and make changes quicker when I get to work (I wear lace up boots all day, and appreciate not having to take these off when Im taking off my scooter wear). The zips on the sides are a little tricky to do up (I always seem to have problems with zips that are two way, so perhaps its me). The fit of these is perfect, in that they fit well, and are obviously designed for a scooter stance as they dont ride up your leg when riding.

Fab gear that gets my full recommendation, I also note the 4G jackets are now on offer (in UK through Urbanrider).
Cheers.
