Husqvarna Motorcycles and premium Italian casual clothing brand REPLAY are proud have presented the latest result of their partnership – a clothing collection aimed squarely at style-conscious riders in the fastevolving two-wheeler market . Riders are increasingly favouring their motorcycle for transport , especially in city and urban areas , and there is growing demand for urban mobility products that provide comfort and safety while riding , yet maintain wearability and good looks off the motorcycle .
The collection ’ s riding jeans feature a pioneering new denim fibre . Traditional motorcycling denimwear has two layers , with denim over Kevlar ® or one of its derivatives . The new denim fibre adopted by REPLAY uses a single layer to provide protection with comfort without compromising looks . This fabric technology merges REPLAY ’ s premium Hyperflex denim with CORDURA ® fibre , spun together in a single layer to allow clothing to be cut for a contemporary fit , incredible comfort and protection . The jeans have CE Level B certification with abrasion resistance up to 45 km / h . Other benefits of the fabric are that garments made from it are up to half the usual weight of denim jeans offered as motorcycle clothing . The organic fibres and single-layer technology make it breathable , and four-way stretchability of up to 50 % ensures comfort .
A stylish and functional Replay Padded Vest is also part of the collection and guarantees free movement thanks to dynamic stretch panels . Inner and outer front pockets are complemented by an easy-to-access zipped back pocket . A subtle Husqvarna Motorcycles print adorns the left breast .
The Replay Zip Hoodie comes in dark blue or black and is warm and functional , with taped zippers and an integrated key pocket . Furthermore , a Husqvarna Motorcycles emblem decorates the front .
The Replay Crew Neck Tee is available in grey or the motorcycle brand ’ s familiar yellow . The Husqvarna Motorcycles print is proudly displayed on the front of the shirt .
REPLAY has been the official sponsor of the Husqvarna Motorcycles Moto3 team since 2020 . The brands make perfect teammates , both being renowned for stylish , high-end products and a flair for innovation .
Recently , the partnership has also inspired a limited edition of ten machines with exclusive parts and graphics . The strictly one-off run features the Vitpilen 701 , 701 Supermoto and 701 Enduro LR . These REPLAY edition models will be loaned to selected celebrities .
The new Husqvarna-REPLAY collection is now available at selected , authorised Husqvarna Motorcycles dealers and REPLAY stores . Availability may differ from country to country . For details on pricing and availability , see your local Husqvarna dealer .
