What is Airflow Perforated Leather?

Warmer days tempt you to ditch the jacket, but at Triumph we believe staying cool shouldn’t cost your protection. That’s where a perforated leather jacket steps in.

WHAT IS AIRFLOW PERFORATED LEATHER?

Research and rider testing shows that the chest, torso, upper back, arms, underarms, lower back, and waistline are especially prone to trapping warmth. That’s exactly why well‑placed perforation in those specific hotspots, like the strategically positioned pattern on our Triumph design, makes such a difference in warm‑weather comfort.

The AirFlow perforation on Triumph riderwear are small, precisely placed holes in direct wind zones on the leather to release heat from the jacket right where it tends to build up, helping keep you cool while you ride. It strategically enhances airflow, helping reduce sweat and discomfort.

Think of the little holes like micro-windows to let the cool air in and hot air escape easily, without impacting the safety aspect or CE Rating of the jacket. It is ventilation designed around your riding posture, cooling where you need it, solid where you don’t.

TRIUMPH’S BRADDAN AIR RACE

For those who choose aesthetics and performance, The Braddan Air Race jacket is designed to give you both dependable protection and exceptional airflow.

  1. Its AirFlow perforated leather keeps you comfortable in rising temperatures, while the refined design ensures you look well-styled on every ride.
  2. To push ventilation even further, the underarms use four precision‑cut metal eyelets (small metal ring vents), each with its own micro‑holes to channel out extra heat and keep air moving.
  3. Stretch panels flex naturally with your riding posture, keeping perforated sections open and airflow at full power.

The Braddan carries that iconic look and feel, now in a Gold colourway that delivers a vintage look finish.
