What is D30?
Under slow rates of movement, the d3o™ CE certified (EN1621-1) pads
provides maximum comfort through softness and flexibility, but when impacted at high speeds
d3o™ displays excellent shock absorption as the Intelligent Molecules inside lock together,
spreading the force over the whole pad. D3o™ completely conforms to your body and remains
almost invisible within your garment, but provides excellent shock absorption when you need it.

THE ARMADILLO COLLECTION
The range consists of men’s and ladies parkas available in khaki and black, the men’s Soft Shell
Hoody in black, and women’s Funnel Neck Fitted Jacket in red.
The women’s Funnel Neck Fitted Jacket is 100% waterproof and breathable. Its lightweight
quality makes it the ideal companion for the unpredictable spring weather. The wonderfully bright
scarlet material ensures high visibility as well as fitting easily with this year’s colourful
spring/summer collections. And for men who don’t like to think too much about what to put on, the
Soft Shell Hoody is sure to be this season’s key wardrobe staple. Windproof, waterproof and fully
breathable, this summer’s throw over will quickly become any riders ‘old favourite’.
In an industry first, Armadillo Scooter Wear have incorporated removable d3o™ CE certified EN-
1621-1 components into high impact areas of the jacket and
trousers. d3o™ is a material already used in snow and riot gear, and contains ‘Intelligent
Molecules’ that flow freely under normal conditions making the material soft, flexible and low
profile, but lock together on shock to absorb the energy from an impact.
The parka range also protects riders from the harshest weather with a total windproof system,
waterproof protection, 3M thinsulate material giving you warmth without bulk, and breathable
Tech3™ fleece inner skin which traps body heat but also allows the body to breathe. To top it all,
the jackets even contain a handy MP3 player pocket so when you’ve parked up, you can plug in.
