Leatt HydraDri 5.0 MTB Jacket V26 Waterproof Breathable Mountain Biking Jacket

The Leatt HydraDri 5.0 MTB Jacket V26 is engineered for mountain bikers who demand uncompromising protection and comfort in every ride. Constructed from Leatt’s innovative HydraDri Max 3-layer fabric, this jacket delivers exceptional waterproofing at 30,000 mm and breathability of 30,000 g/m², ensuring you stay dry and comfortable no matter the weather conditions. Its PFAS-free durable water repellent (DWR) finish not only sheds water efficiently but also resists dirt, keeping your jacket clean and functional throughout your adventures.

Designed with a regular, active fit, the jacket moves seamlessly with your body, thanks to its superior 4-way stretch fabric and pre-shaped ergonomic sleeves. The ClimbVent system enhances airflow during intense climbs, while the Ride Adaptive Hood (RAhD) offers a patent-pending magnetic attachment that easily fixes the hood to your helmet or back when not in use. With reinforced elbows, waterproof storm cuffs, and reflective details, this jacket is built to withstand the rigors of serious all-weather riding while maximizing your visibility.

Storage is intelligently planned with multiple waterproof pockets, including a chest pocket equipped with a goggle wiper, an internal padded phone sleeve, and a convenient lift-pass pocket. The hidden YKK Aquaguard zippers secure your essentials safely, while the internal waist belt offers adjustable fit for enhanced comfort. Crafted with sustainability in mind, the jacket features bluesign® approved fabric and plastic-free packaging, combining performance with eco-conscious design.
