The 4 Tempi is a new coat from Italian rider clothing specialist Tucano Urbano.
As the name suggests, it’s designed for year-round riding, a medium length coat with a Hydroscud windproof, waterproof, breathable Polyamide exterior, taped seams, detachable quilted lining with thermal padding, CE approved D3O Level 1 elbow armour provided (the ability to insert CE D3O shoulder and back armour too), Reflactive reflective system, elasticated windproof wrist cuffs and adjustable waist.
Available in either male or female cuts, the RRP is £159.99, and we’ve got one on test so we’ll report back shortly.
The short Carter Jacket is a bit like a flight jacket in style, also boasting Hydroscud Breathable Polyamide exterior, windproof and high waterproof rating, taped seams, detachable quilted lining CE approved D3O Level 1 elbow armour provided, Reflactive system and elasticated windproof wrist cuffs.
It too has a RRP of £159.99 and we’ve got one of these on test too – the first impression being it’s surprisingly warm for such a jacket. In fact riding over the Christmas and New Year period, during the day I was often out in just a T-shirt underneath, and as with most Tucano coats I’ve tried, the Carter was immediately comfortable too. I think we’re going to get along fine… www.tucanourbano.com
