Description
Merlin Explorer Collection
The Merlin Explorer Collection has been designed to complement the rise in accessible, do-it-all motorcycles, along with the increased desire to get out and travel thanks to nearly 18 months of COVID-19 lockdowns. Also behind the design – the rise of younger motorcyclists, with Instagram’s heritage scene rapidly growing and the build-up of motorcycling in popular culture encouraging more young people to get their licences. Explorer offers rugged styling, durability and protection while incorporating the signature Merlin styling using only the best materials and components, such as Halley Stevensons® waxed cotton, D3O® armour and Cordura®.
Merlin Raptor D3O Laminate Jacket
Built for riders who push further, the Raptor jacket sits at the active end of the Merlin Explorer Collection; a highly technical shell engineered for uncompromising performance in all conditions.
Constructed from a stretch PFAS-free ripstop 3-layer laminate, it delivers durability, weather protection and freedom of movement in equal measure, designed to adapt as the terrain changes beneath you.
With a upper end, performance 15k/12k waterproofing and breathability rating, the Raptor is built to handle sustained exposure to the elements while maintaining comfort on long, demanding rides. Reinforced elbow overlays add an extra layer of durability and impact resistance in key zones, contributing to its CE AA certification.
Inside, a fixed mesh lining with antibacterial treatment enhances airflow and comfort, while also securely housing the armour system. The Raptor is designed as a complete protective solution, with capacity for up to seven pieces of armour across the back, shoulders, elbows and chest.
Tested and developed by the Sweet Lamb, Ducati Adv Academy team, Raptor has been refined and engineered to take on the toughest conditions.
