Rukka new 3-in-1 Gore-Tex riding suits

Synonymous with protection and comfort, premium quality and uncompromising design, this all-new versatile Rukka 'Rapto-R' suit for men and 'Raptorina' 3-in-1 suit for women are additions to the Rukka 'Armaprotection' that "impress with their high-quality materials and excellent comfort in a wide variety of riding conditions".
The 3-layer Gore-Tex Pro laminate makes the jacket and trousers fully water- and windproof while offering a market-leading level of breathability. The material is elastic throughout and easily conforms to the wearer’s movements with Armacor reinforcements at the elbows, shoulders, knees and hips to provide higher wear resistance.


These versatile suits are able to cover a wide range of temperatures from near freezing all the way to mid-season highs: in warm weather, multiple well-placed ventilation zips can be used to promote airflow within the suit and stay cool, while the included extra warm down liners provide insulation when riding in the cold.
The down inner jacket and trousers fit comfortably under the protective shells and can be packed into their own pouches when not in use. High-quality protectors developed by Rukka in cooperation with D3O are said to "provide excellent impact protection with Rukka D3O Air XTR Level 2 protectors on the shoulders, elbows, back, hips and knees, plus a D3O CP1 Level 1 chest protector.
The 'Raptorina' suit comes with a Rukka D3O Air XTR Level 1 back protector and D3O LP1 Level 1 protectors for the shoulders, elbows, hips and knees, with an option to upgrade to Level 2 protectors if desired, and additionally includes a pocket for a D3O CP1 divided chest protector.
The Rukka AirCushion system on the seat of the trousers forms a thin air cushion on the contact surface with the seat, reducing condensation. An integrated and stowable Rukka ATS Gore-Tex stretch collar provides additional wind protection.
