NEW RELEASE: LEATT 2021 GEAR LINE

Leatt have come out swinging for 2021 with a near-complete redesign on their line up of riding gear. Right from the top of your noggin, to the tippy toes of your feat, Leatt have you covered.

Starting out as a single product company, innovating the protection aspect of our sport, Leatt created the first neck brace for moto riding in 2001. A concept that starts growing rapidly and reaches its release to the market in 2006 to critical acclaim.

20 years later, Leatt has released their all-new line up with new names, new numbers and more options throughout the entire range. Additions to their helmet, gear, off-road, goggle and protection lines that will sure to please even the pickiest of riders.

We are hoping to try out this new 2021 gear for ourselves in the coming weeks, but until then, we have all the goss from Leatt themselves. Scroll on down.

Press Release: October 6th

Leatt's dedication to rider safety and scientific approach to riding gear is distinct in their advanced new 2021 range of Moto Helmets, including the 9.5 Carbon and 8.5 Composite.

ULTIMATE HEAD AND BRAIN PROTECTION
Slipping the 9.5 Carbon Helmet onto your head, you’ll instantly notice its high quality. To say it’s possibly the most comfortable helmet is no exaggeration. Providing massive airflow at any speed, it feels exceptionally light yet remains highly protective.

Naturally, all Leatt helmets are built to be compatible with the Leatt neck brace, allowing for maximum head and neck mobility. Leatt’s 9.5 Carbon is undoubtedly one of the lightest DOT/ECE approved helmets you can buy. If you are looking for a stylish helmet that features the latest technology in safety and comfort, Leatt’s 2021 range of Moto helmets is for you.

PREMIUM HEAD AND BRAIN PROTECTION
Redefining head and brain protection, Leatt introduces the 9.5 Carbon Helmet and 8.5 Composite Helmet. With premium protective features like four densities of impact foam cut into five sections, visor with breakaway function and emergency cheek pad removal. The highest level of impact protection is achieved using 360⁰ Turbine Technology, which reduces forces associated with concussion and rotational acceleration to the brain.

While large ventilation channels, a Pro-Fit elastic comfort liner and a hydration port provide all-day coolness and comfort. All helmets also feature a washable, anti-odor X-Static® Inner liner that wicks away moisture and offers excellent breathability.

JACKETS
From heavy-duty Enduro to lightweight and super-ventilated, Leatt's striking range of 2021 jackets are packed with high-performance features like a lightweight, durable shell, water-resistant/breathable material, X-Flow mesh, pre-curved zip-off arms, Brush Guard and hydration pocket. Keeping you dry, ventilated and protected from the elements, for increased comfort and performance.

Leatt's bold, stylish 2021 jerseys include the 5.5 laser-cut and welded, ultra-light race fit jersey with MoistureCool stretch mesh and the 4.5 classic fit jersey that's super vented with X-Flow mesh. Dirt, water and stain resistant, these impressive jerseys will keep you cool and comfortable on the track.

PANTS
The impressive 5.5 pants offer a pre-curved race fit, internal knee brace system to reduce wear and tear, and inner knee reinforcement with full-grain leather for superior bike grip. While the light and breathable 4.5 pants feature a pre-curved classic fit, RipStop stretch and X-Flow mesh panels for cool, ventilated comfort that keeps you at peak performance.

Leatt also offers two levels of palm, with a slim, durable MicronGrip palm setting a new standard for gloves in this price range, offering you good wet and dry grip. While the durable, breathable ultra-thin NanoGrip palm offers superior wet and dry grip and handlebar feel.

Their 2021 gloves are fully touchscreen compatible and supremely comfortable thanks to FormFit finger stitching. The range includes the 3.5 and 4.5 Lite, 2.5 X-Flow, WindBlock and SubZero, and 1.5 GripR.

The 5.5 Flexlock boot is now joined by the 4.5 Boot - another price conscious option that has nearly all the safety features you can find in the premium 5.5.
