Merlin Bamford AAA Jacket

Introducing the first CE AAA-rated tech wax riding jacket, a true evolution of heritage performance. The Bamford is built from Scottish Halley Stevensons tech wax (Cotec), delivering the timeless character of waxed cotton with a modern, lightweight strength and weather resistance capable of handling the harshest conditions.

Beneath the outer, reinforced zones enhance durability and rider protection, while a highly rated Texland Humax membrane provides dependable waterproofing when the weather turns. A removable full-body thermal liner offers warmth through the colder months, easily detached as temperatures rise, with multiple ventilation points opening the jacket up for airflow on summer rides. Inside, British Marton Mills tartan trims the Bamford, a subtle nod to its heritage roots.

As a complete riding solution, the Bamford comes equipped with five pieces of D3O armour pre-fitted, and for the first time in a wax jacket, includes chest armour pockets, allowing protection to be increased to a full seven piece set.

Thoughtful finishing details elevate the experience further, including magnetic front closures for ease of use, an internal sunglasses pocket, and a three-point belt system for a secure, tailored fit on the bike.
