With revolutionary new features and designs, the latest collection not only showcases the brand’s commitment to rider safety and performance but also marks two decades of pushing the boundaries in riding protection.

The 4.5 and 4.5 Women’s Gear

At the core of the new Moto range is the 4.5 and 4.5 Women’s gear, specifically designed for the female form. The focus of the 4.5 gear is to provide unparalleled protection, comfort, and functionality.

A standout feature of the 4.5 gear is the introduction of the Hypolon belt — a super strong, 360º waistband. Unmatched in its ability to keep pants securely in place during even the most intense races, the Hypolon belt ensures that riders can focus on their performance without distraction.

The construction of the 4.5 pant incorporates Leatt’s new Twisted Yarn Technology for improved flexibility, abrasion and cut and tear resistance. The 4.5 gear delivers the exceptional quality you’d expect from Leatt, offering that perfect blend of protection and freedom of movement.

The range is perfectly suited to the track or the trails, in sunny or challenging weather conditions, making it a must-have for serious Moto enthusiasts.

Fresh New Looks for Helmets and Boots

As a leader in protective equipment, Leatt helmets feature 360 ̊ Turbine Technology for premium head and brain protection. The leading 5.5 boot features FlexLock Technology designed to protect the ankle and knee joints from impact forces and twists.

While the 2025 range doesn’t include new models for helmets and boots, Leatt has given these essential items a vibrant refresh. The new color schemes are bold and modern, while still maintaining the classic Leatt look that riders have come to love.

The New Vizion for Goggles

The new 3.5 Vizion line offers riders quality eye protection and clarity. The lenses are anti fog and anti-scratch, and are roll-off compatible for those muddy track days. A range of lens colors ensure clear visibility in varying light conditions. The new Vizion range does not offer the same level of unbeatable protection as Leatt’s bulletproof Velocity models, but the softer, more flexible and lighter frame will appeal to many riders.

The 2025 goggle range also sees the introduction of two new lens variants. Premium 6.5 goggles will now be available with photochromic lenses which automatically adjust to changing light conditions, providing optimal visibility for varied weather conditions or if riding in and out of shaded areas.

Brand new Cryztal lens technology can be found across the Velocity 6.5 and 5.5 models. This high contrasting, color defining technology provides incredible clarity, allowing riders to experience the track or trails like never before. These two new lens designs ensure that the Velocity goggles remain at the forefront of rider safety and performance.

Fox unveils new Scans LE kit https://www.motoheadmag.com/fox-unveils-new-scans-le-kit/ Tue, 21 May 2024 19:38:57 +0000 https://www.motoheadmag.com/?p=40169

Where flight meets flights.

Senses on overdrive, courage at the limit, brain firing on all frequencies-the all-new Scans Limited Edition Collection is fight or flight, visualized.

With a graphic that mimics the body’s physical response to the stress of the chase and adrenaline of the win, this is racewear that gets it. Signal sent. Message received. Response incoming.

“That feeling of winning was pretty insane. It gave me something to chase, and I’m always kind of looking for that feeling again.” – Levi Kitchen

“One of the more stressful moments in racing is, I think, the last lap. If you know you’re going to win a GP or you’re going to win a moto, you’re like, ‘I need to stay up on two wheels. ‘And that’s always quite a stressful moment, but also a fun moment at the same time, because that two-minute lap time – or whatever it is – will feel like 10 minutes. And yeah, it will take so long before you get to the finish line, but once you came over the finish line it’s so amazing that you’ve just won a race or won a GP.” – Kay De Wolf.

Other features such as stretch fabrics, ventilation, and storage vary across the three product tiers to meet the demands of a multi-day or an out-and-back ride. This is the Recon line:

Leatt’s new adventure begins https://www.motoheadmag.com/leatts-new-adventure-begins/ Sat, 20 Jan 2024 10:56:05 +0000 https://www.motoheadmag.com/?p=39236 Leatt has launched a new line of ADV gear – a milestone for the South African firm which started with just a single, innovative product – the Neck Brace, back in 2004.         

The range has been designed for motorcycle enthusiasts that answer the call of adventure no matter the conditions or terrain. The ADV line is made up of three product ranges, the flagship product being the Multi Tour gear with all season, all weather apparel.

Then there is the Flow Tour gear, perfect for warmer climates and Dri Tour, essential wet weather gear. All the ranges includere movable layers be it thermal or waterproof –or both. The ADV line is as adaptable as the elements themselves.

An adventure range would not be complete without an outstanding footwear proposition. The ADV HydraDri boots feature Leatt’s proprietary HydraDri Evo membrane and are designed for comfort and safety. Their versatility makes them ideal for those long exploration rides.

The gloves in the ADV range are available in a standard above-the-wrist fit or a shorter alternative. In the full range, you can find options for all weather and season variations with HydraDri membranes or X-Flow mesh uppers. Of course, here Leatt has also left their distinctive mark, incorporating their NanoGrip palms, together with CE certified leather as well the brands lightweight, super flexible Reaflex gel knuckle protection.

Every product in the ADV apparelrange makes use of Leatt 3DF impact protection and has ClassAA  rated certification and in most cases CE level 2 protection, ensuring that the safety of the rider is fully considered and uncompromising.

It should be no surprise that thrill-seeking Leatt is offering a range of products to adventure riders. The South African based protection and apparel brand began their product line with just a neck brace before moving on to provide a wider suite of protection products. That led to the creation of the Leatt Moto and then MTB lines, complete head-to-toe ranges that cater to two-wheel riders across the globe. Next year the brand is going to celebrate its 20th Anniversary.

Fox reveals new off road collection https://www.motoheadmag.com/fox-reveals-new-off-road-collection/ Thu, 21 Sep 2023 16:10:40 +0000 https://www.motoheadmag.com/?p=38632 THE ALL-NEW OFFROAD COLLECTION – MADE FOR THE SOUL RIDER

The soul of expression can be found off road, and locations like the Gold Creek Lodge in Idaho, a “summer camp for the soul rider,” are the ideal place to disconnect and find it. The all-new Off Road Collection with Ranger, Defend, and Recon help translate that expression into style on fast-flowing singletrack, mellow two-track, or steep and narrow, hard-enduro-style slogs. When it feels right, you know it.

Leatt unveils 2024 moto kit https://www.motoheadmag.com/leatt-unveils-2024-moto-kit/ Mon, 14 Aug 2023 17:21:33 +0000 https://www.motoheadmag.com/?p=38449

Leatt, the name synonymous with safety on two wheels, is thrilled to announce the launch of its new 2024 Moto gear, headed up by innovative designs specifically for Motocross (MX). By harnessing the latest advancements in technology, Leatt once again sets the standard and underlines its relentless commitment to rider performance and protection.

The newly released Moto gear introduces a range of riding apparel that flawlessly blends function, technology, and design, highlighting the brand’s keen attention to detail – and, of course, its eye-catching style.

THE 2024 RIDING APPAREL COLLECTION

With a range of vibrant colors, the riding kits bring a fresh, standout look to the MX scene. Comprising a jersey and pant combo, the Leatt 5.5, 4.5, and 3.5 riding kits offer something for every level of MX enthusiast.

Keeping you cool and confident, the jerseys are constructed from a lightweight, moisture-wicking, stretch mesh material. Depending on their preference, riders can choose between jerseys with a snug race fit or a classic, tailored fit. The designs offer everything from bright and bold colors to more subdued styles, providing ample selection for any rider’s individual taste.

The pants offer the same exciting mix of modern colours and styles with reliable durability – a must-have for any MX rider. For better bike grip, all pants come with reinforced leather on the inner leg, with the 5.5 featuring an internal knee brace system (IKS) to further reduce wear and tear. Like the jerseys, the pants provide ventilation through breathable materials and air channels, keeping you cool on those intense or long rides.

THE 2024 GLOVE COLLECTION

The perfect combination of grip and protection, the range of 2024 Moto gloves are designed to withstand the rigors of MX while providing riders with ultimate control over their bike. The new Leatt glove lineup includes four exceptional options: the 4.5, 3.5 Lite, 2.5 X-Flow, and the 1.5 GripR, all engineered to deliver unparalleled feel on the handlebars in both dry and wet riding conditions.

The gloves incorporate a revolutionary stretch stitch thread, enhancing seam strength to offer greater durability. The gloves also feature stretch material on the back of the hand, providing excellent airflow and keeping riders’ hands cool and dry.

Not only will MX enthusiasts benefit from the performance of the gloves, but they will also boost their style on the track or trails with the latest colours and designs.

THE 2024 HELMET COLLECTION

Leatt’s continuous pursuit of setting the standards for protection is no more important than the 2024 collection of MX helmets. Each helmet blends state-of-the-art protective technology with modern, stylish designs and for 2024 onwards comes with an added 3-year Helmet Replacement Policy

Leatt helmets are built on the foundation of safety, and each one includes 360° Turbine Technology, a groundbreaking feature that sets Leatt helmets apart. Made up of the 9.5, 8.5, 7.5, and 3.5, the 2024 helmet range matches confidence with comfort. A superior airflow design ensures optimal breathability even at low level speeds, allowing MX riders to focus on the thrill of the ride.

With designs and colors that speak to the daring nature of MX, Leatt helmets are the epitome of uncompromising protection and unmatched style.

GOAT Strafer range from Fox revealed https://www.motoheadmag.com/goat-strafer-range-from-fox-revealed/ Fri, 31 Mar 2023 10:43:29 +0000 http://www.motoheadmag.com/?p=37464 There’s no argument: Ricky Carmichael is the Greatest of All Time. His legendary battles, undefeated seasons, and iconic Fox Racing graphics are burned into our collective memories. The GOAT Special Edition Collection reinvents Ricky Carmichael Replica kits, handpicked by RC himself.

Strafer, the second graphic in the collection, commemorates RC’s back-from-injury, 2004 Pro Motocross Championship-winning season. It was the first year the #4 number plate was bolted on to a “thumper”, and we got a real taste of 4-stroke racing at tracks like Kenworthy’s Motocross Park in Troy, Ohio. If that doesn’t jog your memory, how about RC’s 100th win at Budds Creek, or claiming another undefeated season? That’s 24 outdoor motocross wins following an ACL injury, and that wasn’t even his plan. Just another reason why RC’s the Greatest of All Time.
