Single Layer Protection with Active Stretch

Integrated Safety and Build

The Brody Utility Shirt prioritises rider safety without the bulk of traditional leather or heavy textile jackets. The inclusion of D3O® Ghost armour ensures the shirt retains a natural silhouette off the bike, while the internal pocket is ready to house an optional D3O® Viper Stealth back protector. A snap-down collar prevents wind flapping at speed, ensuring the garment remains stable and comfortable during transit.
