Assault Gear Review – Hurricane

With the arrival of Assault’s Hurricane Touring Gear, the designers and manufacturers of this incredibly comfortable suit have kept two of the most important things in mind when you opt to buy good gear built to last; One, you need great protection from the elements and result of coming off your bike and two, being seen by other commuters on the road.
Made from durable Cordura material and fitted with CE approved shoulder, elbow, back and knee protectors, you will be looking at a suit that has you completely catered for from the get-go.

Assault has designed this suit not only with creature comforts in mind, such as easy-to-get-to storage pouches (we all know these as pockets), effectively positioned Air-Flow zips and detachable thermal inners, but these are considered highly practical as well as a necessity to most.
On the jacket body itself, fully adjustable at the waist, you will find a total of five Velcro’d compartments - the two upper pockets and back pouch are both fully zip and Velcro equipped, where the remaining hip pockets account for the other two fitted with just Velcro.
The second creature comfort/necessity mentioned are the Air-Flow pockets. These zipped pockets can be found positioned on the forearm of each sleeve, shoulders and shoulder-blades, combining taking your thermal inners out for long rides on those warm days out in the country.
The pants/bottoms of the suit have not been neglected in this area and have full-on knee zips which run about 20cm across the knee and 20cm up the thigh for effective air flow travel.

Available in Black, Red and Blue the Assault Hurricane suits are one of the most affordable and genuinely nicest-looking suits out there. Quality and comfort have not been compromised for affordability and aesthetics – this is honestly the kind of suit that wears and shows off its rider.
