PRO GUIDE

Feature-rich Mondial 2.0 suit

Oxford Products ' best-selling Mondial Dry2Dry laminate jacket has returned with improvements ( including CE Level 2 protectors ), increased adjustability and more wearer-friendly ease of use across the garment . Available in men ' s and women ' s sizes , Oxford ' s laminate textiles fuse the Dry2Dry membrane to the outer shell , creating an extremely lightweight , durable and waterproof garment . The upgraded CE Level 2 protectors in the shoulders and elbows ( EN 1621-1:2012 ) are formed from a soft , flexible polymer that conforms to the wearer ' s individual body shape ; these protectors harden upon impact with high shockabsorbing properties . When temperatures rise , the WarmDry thermal liner can be removed , allowing the ventilation system to channel cool air directly to the body and allowing warm air to exit out of the rear exhaust vent . Large chest vents are now easily opened and fastened with one hand , without even needing to look at them . In addition to the water-resistant zippers , clever fabric techniques create rain channels that further prevent rain ingress . Semi-autolock zippers ensure the flap remains closed when not in use . Additional features include CE A Certification ( EN 17092-
4:2020 ), a back protector pocket , 360 ° reflective printing for night-time visibility and YKK long and short connecting zips that allow pant attachment for a secure protective fastening . Climate control features include the Dry2Dry laminate construction with a 5,000 mm waterproof rating , 5,000 g / m2 / 24 hrs breathability rating , the WarmDry removable thermal liner , large foldback chest direct vent with hook and loop fastening ( easily used with one hand ), direct ventilation at the upper arm and upper back , water-resistant zippers on all exposed openings and under and over centre opening plackets for increased water resistance . The construction is in durable , high-tenacity polyester for the outer shell for exceptional strength-to-weight ratio , bar tack stitching to reinforce stress points and a neoprene rolled neck for next-to-skin comfort . Accordion stretch panels above the elbow increase the freedom of movement . There is a drawcord adjustable hem , slim profile tri-glide webbing adjustment at the upper arm and waist for increased ease of use , five-point press stud collar adjustment , elasticated loop and TPU hook at the collar for collar foldback and dropped rear hemline . The matching Mondial 2.0 MS pant also includes CE A Certification ( EN 17092-4:2020 ) and level 2 CE knee protectors ( EN 1621-1:2012 ), with a hip protector pocket , reflective printing and the same YKK long and short
connecting zips . The range of features use similar fabrics to the jacket - Dry2Dry laminate construction and WarmDry removable thermal liner - with direct ventilation at the upper leg and water-resistant zippers on all exposed openings . The durable high-tenacity polyester outer shell offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio .
