New Tornado Sports Jacket for under £200
31st January 2008


WEISE® has introduced a highly specified, close-fitting and comfortable sports leather jacket that will sell in the shops for under £200.  The Tornado jacket is part of the new collection of race-specification bike wear that is the first of its type in the brand's history and reflects the core WEISE® values of quality materials, fit and functionality, all at a great price. 


The Tornado jacket shares many features with 1-piece race suits, such as its distinctive red mesh lining and TPR reinforcements on the shoulders.  There are genuine KNOX® CE protectors in the shoulders, elbows and at the back too. 


However there are several features specific to this jacket.  The outer shell is manufactured from tough, durable Monaco performance leather in 1.2-1.4mm thickness.  Comfort is high on the agenda, thanks to Keprotec® stretch panels on the arms and elasticated leather panels on the back, which ensure there is freedom of movement for the wearer.  Vented leather panels deliver a cooling breeze in hot weather while a removable quilted thermal inner jacket provides insulation from the elements in the cold. 


As with all WEISE® products the attention to detail shines through. There are 3M® reflective materials on the chest and back to aid night-time visibility and a Neoprene trim on the collar & cuffs. There are two outer pockets, fastened with zips and the jacket can be attached to matching jeans with 360 degree and 6 inch zippers.  Reliable YKK® zippers are used throughout and the cuffs have snap-lock versions that are designed to stay shut fast even in a crash situation.


The Tornado jacket is produced in a wide choice of sizes (38” – 50” chest) in black priced at £199.99.  It is covered by a one-year, no quibble warranty for peace of mind.
