CE certified ‘Jackets’

In addition to being CE certified the jackets carry armours from D30 and KNOX, most trusted internal impact protection armours. These armours also carry CE level one and level two armour certifications. This range of riding jackets has been thoroughly tested for abrasion resistance, impact protection, ergonomics, tear strength, seam strength, innocuousness and dimension stability.

Most of the riding gears that are being sold for their protective qualities only have their armours CE certified, instead of the entire garment being certified under CE. There is a misconception that CE certified armours and CE certified jackets are the same thing. It is important to understand that CE certified armours only certified for impact protection whereas a garment to be CE certified has to additionally undergo numerous other tests.

Where to get them?

The riding jacket collection has been segregated based on different riding conditions and needs of the rider: City/short Rides, Highway Touring and High Altitude/All-terrain range; priced at INR 4,950 up to INR 14,950 respectively. To aid the rider in selecting the right riding jacket Royal Enfield has created an interactive page on their website, where a user can filter out jackets based on the weather conditions, riding needs or protection levels they desire. The user can also compare the different jackets and decide which one works the best for them. The collection can be purchased from Royal Enfield’s official online store and at all the Royal Enfield dealerships across the country. Additionally, the jackets can also be purchased from Amazon and select Central and Shopper Stop outlets.
