Material

The armoured puffer is made from Cordura, a super-tough material known for its durability and impact resistance. 


Cordura fabrics are known for being lightweight, breathable and weather resistant, which is why the SA1NT team chose it to construct this innovative moto puffer.


Weather Resistance and Breathability

The SA1NT armoured puffer is perfect for wearing on those harsh winter days when the elements turn against you. It has a DWR finish (durable water repellent), as well as a waterproof and windproof laminated internal membrane. This membrane not only keeps the cold out, but releases heat from the inside, so you won't feel hot and stuffy as you ride.


Design and Versatility

The SA1NT armoured puffer serves double duty as both a protective garment and a fashionable everyday jacket. Made to look and feel like an ordinary puffer, this jacket is still more than up to the task when it comes to protection. With the double appeal of casual fashion and unbeatable protection, the armoured puffer is seriously great value.


Warmth and Comfort

Most puffer jackets are either warm or comfortable, but rarely both. The SA1NT puffer is impressively comfortable given the amount of safety features that it's packed with. It's super warm but not especially bulky, so you can stay dry without sacrificing manoeuvrability.

Care and Maintenance

  • Try to wash your jacket as little as possible to give it a long shelf life. If possible, spot clean stains with a damp cloth instead of washing the entire garment.
  • Remove the armours when washing.
  • Turn the jacket inside out and cold hand wash it, or cold machine wash it on a delicate cycle.
  • Do not iron or bleach it.
  • Tumble dry on low or dry flat.

SA1NT Puffer Jacket in a Test Drive

The SA1NT puffer brings a hell of a lot to the table. It's stylish and comfortable enough to wear all day long, both on and off the bike, but it definitely doesn't skimp on protection. This jacket is a dream come true if you love to ride all year round no matter what the weather dishes up.


Black puffers pair with just about any outfit, so you can wear this jacket pretty much anywhere you go. It's a great 'undercover' option if you don't like walking around in loud motorcycle gear. 


Most importantly, the jacket is seriously good at keeping you warm and dry, but it's still breathable so you won't feel like you're suffocating.

The first of its kind in the world, the SA1NT armoured puffer is a seriously impressive piece of moto gear.
