Building on the success of their Axe protective shirt, the Axe Hydro’s a waterproof Kevlar causal riding shirt that’s the perfect solution to wet/cold weather riding. It has a fully taped and sealed Reissa membrane, providing a premium level of waterproof/breathable performance, that sits between the premium 330gsm outer flannel and a lightweight thermal lining, offering superior protection against the elements. Meeting CE AA certification standards, DuPont Kevlar’s added to impact areas, providing high levels of abrasion resistance, and there’re Armanox CE protectors in the shoulders and elbows, adjustable for a better fit, while a pocket in the back for a D3O back protector. There’re also external and internal pockets, a dropped rear hem to cover the lower back when riding, and a short YKK jacket-to-jean connection zipper.
The Axe Hydro’s available in red/black or grey/black in sizes S to 4XL, and RRP (including VAT) is £179.99. Get yours from anywhere that stocks the Merlin range or www.merlinbikegear.com
