TRIXIOR REFLEX THREAD 3M SCOTCHLITE
D-TEC Engineered Hyper Fabric – Stemming from Dainese‘s most advanced
material research, TRIXIOR is a one-of-a-kind material resulting from
revolutionary technology. Through virtual prototyping, Dainese technicians
have successfully created a fabric with controlled geometry and thickness,
where each area is prepared with a weave of materials that have different
properties. This technology was also used to insert highly reflective threads
in the most exposed zones, attaining an optimized result. Scotchlite is a special refractive material produced by 3M Company. Thanks
to its particular flexible structure made of glass micro-beads combined with
a reflective layer on the back part of the stripe, the sheeting glows brightly
when there is a small angle between the observer‘s eye and a light source
directed toward the material, but appears nonreflective when viewed from
other directions. This is extremely useful to increase by far the visibility of
clothes during nightime for security purpose.

CO-INJECTED SHOULDER
WITH METAL INSERT TITANIUM & ALUMINUM
SHOULDERS
The co-injected shoulder with metal insert is one of the most revolutionary
innovations developed for Dainese garments. The customary removable
composite protection has been substituted here by an injection of plastic
material over a net externally covered in polyurethane. A pocket for the
insertion of the metal plate fastened by rivets on the inside is created
inside this structure. The result is a completely armoured CE homologated
protector jointed to the rest of the garment with the minimum occupation
of space for the maximum advantage to the wearer’s comfort. Harnessing the many benefits of titanium and aluminum - from light weight
to outstanding abrasion resistance and controlled sliding - this new-design
shoulder armor benefits from seamless integration and increased coverage
to provide outstanding protection. Advanced multilayer under-shell
protection dissipates impact forces to CE 1621.1. Level 2.
