What is PrimaLoft® Insulation?
Primaloft® insulation is engineered to keep riders warm without bulk. Originally developed for extreme environments, it delivers lightweight thermal protection that performs reliably in cold and damp conditions, perfect for motorcycle riding gear insulation.
Primaloft has stood at the forefront of technical material innovation since 1983, when it developed a synthetic alternative to down at the request of the US Army. Today, the brand is recognised worldwide for its extensive range of synthetic insulations that set the standard in their field.
HOW DOES PRIMALOFT® INSULATION WORK?
PrimaLoft® is a high-performance, sustainable insulation engineered for superior thermal efficiency. This advanced synthetic insulation combines ultra-fine fibres that forms a resilient structure of tiny air pockets efficiently trapping heat while repelling water. Even when exposed to moisture, the fibres retain their structure, keeping you warm in wet conditions. PrimaLoft® fibres are finer than a human hair, giving them exceptional softness and lightness. It is also highly compressible while remaining breathable - ideal for cold weather performance without adding bulk.
WHY CHOOSE PRIMALOFT® INSULATION?
- Unrivalled Warmth - Delivers the same thermal performance as goose down - without the bulk or limitations. Ideal for cold weather riding.
- Inherently Water Resistant - Naturally water-resistant and fast-drying, it keeps insulating even when wet, unlike traditional down.
- Maximum Durability - Resists clumping and holds its shape over time, offering dependable warmth ride after ride.
- Enhanced Breathability - Wicks moisture and allows airflow to help regulate body temperature and reduce overheating.
- Packable - Lightweight and compresses easily for convenience.
- Hypoallergenic - Its durable fibres make it suitable for allergy sufferers.
- 100% Recycled Content - Sourced primarily from plastic water bottles. Since 2015 nearly 1 billion water bottles have been diverted from landfills and marine environments.
