Dainese Gilet Manis 13, Protector Vest

Product Description

GILET MANIS 13 protective ski vest. Back protector with controlled movement external plates to provide skiers with the greatest possible degree of safety & comfort. The most advanced design characterizes this innovative back protector vest that breaks the classic design patterns, & sets new ergonomic standards. The innovative construction solution gives the protector 3 more degrees of freedom than protectors of the past, thus allowing it to closely replicate all the shapes of the human back in typical sports activity. The protector is capable of extending or retracting by bending, in this way following the movements of the torso. It is also able to bend & twist to follow the lateral bending movements of the body. The composite sandwich is the result of the 30 years of experience in the design of back protectors, the external plates with controlled elastic return movement are made from polypropylene & coupled to the Crash absorb®. A final layer of comfort material ensures precise coupling with the surface anatomy of the back. The protector is characterized by large perforations & very small surfaces in contact with the body to provide maximum thermal comfort, & integrated in an elasticated vest made in jersey holl fabric. Material Inner core in perforated Crash absorb® shock absorbing material Articulated external plates with controlled mobility, made from polypropylene with perforated & corrugated structure Localized comfort padding Shock protection Back protector certified to EN 1621.2/2003 Standard (Lev. 2) Ergonomics Back protector with 4 degrees of freedom: Longitudinal stretch, Longitudinal bending, Torsion, Lateral bending controlled by special tensioners Vest in elasticated Jersey Holl:
- Central zip
- Silicone rubber elasticated insert at the waist. Temperature adjustment External perforated pads Breathable Jersey Holl Reduced contact area Crash absorb® perforated absorption material Inner core in perforated Crash absorb® shock absorbing material Special material (water-repellent elastic-visco nitrile rubber) with shape retention memory & excellent energy absorption that adapts perfectly to the shape of the body & ensures optimum fit. Articulated external plates with controlled mobility, made from polypropylene with perforated & corrugated structure. Synthetic polymer used to produce the stiff shell in protectors. Distinguished by elevated resistance to abrasion & impact. Very light, & completely watertight. Back protector certified to EN 1621.2/2003 Standard (Lev. 2) Directly from the racing world. On the track, the maximum riding performance is ensured only when the rider is completely concentrated without worry of injury in case of fall. Dainese® has always provided its champions with the latest state of the art in terms of safety & then transferred this technology to products for the public at large. Back protector homologation is the final step in making the same protectors used & tested by champs like Valentino Rossi available to motorcycle riders everywhere. The homologation of back protectors to EN 1621.2/2003 Standard means that they have successfully passed a maximum impact force transmissible level before sale. The Standard assesses protectors at two performance levels after receiving a series of impacts from a striking force in a predetermined area.
- Level 1: limit of 24 k N per single impact, 18 k N for the average of all impacts
- Level 2: limit of 12 k N per single impact, 9 k N for the average of all impacts. Crash absorb® perforated absorption material Special material (water-repellent elastic-visco nitrile rubber) with shape retention memory & excellent energy absorption that adapts perfectly to the shape of the body & ensures optimum fit.
