Motorcycle gear is a tricky look to master. Go too far in one direction and you’ll end up looking like a Power Ranger suited up for a fistfight, or, in the other direction, Peter Fonda cruising through downtown NOLA. The former gives you optimum protection while the other offers, arguably, maximum style. It’s rare to find a motorcycle-jacket-and-pants combo that’s a happy medium, evenly blending comfort and style with protection from the elements and road rash (or worse). Obviously, you shouldn’t compromise on your personal safety out on the road for the sake of gaining style points, but a reflective neon-yellow synthetic riding suit will only make you stand out for all the wrong reasons when you’re nowhere near your bike.
For riding gear that completely owns the middle of the safety-style spectrum, Aether has your back. Their new Navigator Jacket and Range Motorcycle Pant are designed with a heavy nod to style, but still offer all the abrasion protection and weatherproofing one should expect in modern motorcycle gear. For longer hauls that’ll see more storm cells and saddle time, the Expedition Moto Jacket and Pants up the protection factor with even more durable materials and weatherproofing to stand up to prolonged exposure. Yet somehow they manage to incorporate streamlined, rugged looks, too.
From weekend excursions to a day ride in the hills, and all the stops in between, Aether’s moto gear finds a balance between the safety and performance you need with the style and savvy design you want.
