With its recently introduced one and two-piece leathers selling well, especially into sportsbike-mad North-Eastern European markets, it was almost inevitable that Oxford Products would make a textile jacket aping the styling of its cowhide offerings. So, for riders who want the racetrack aesthetic combined with the comfort and practicality of textiles there is the new Omega. It’s an AA-rated jacket with a high density polyester shell and a Dry2Dry waterproof membrane. CE level 2 shoulder and elbow impact protectors are fitted, and there is a pocket for an optional back protector. A removable thermal gilet and zippered chest vents make it year-round comfortable. It comes in men’s and ladies’ versions, in black or black/red/camo, for an SRP of £169.99.
