The Rapto-R is the successor to the popular RUKKA Realer and is built on the same base but has now received new improved ventilation options, which means you will love it just as much in the summer as you love it in the fall or days when the rain just pours down!
The Rapto-R has received the best Gore-Tex has to offer, a 3-layer laminated Gore-Tex Pro membrane, which is the best wind and waterproof membrane on the market. What characterizes Gore-Tex Pro is that the membrane is laminated (glued) to the inside of the outer fabric, which means that the jacket does not get wet and heavy when riding in the rain, instead the water droplets just "bead" and run off, so you and the jacket stay dry regardless of the weather.
RUKKA Rapto-R has woven Armacor® stretch, which provides the fantastic comfort and mobility that many other laminated jackets cannot offer, which are usually a little stiffer and feel bulkier, but here you get the best protection on the market against the weather and wind, and premium comfort that no other laminated Gore-Tex Pro jacket can offer.
The abrasion protection in Rapto-R is built with stretch polyamide and Armacor®, which is a durable and heat-resistant material. It also has extra reinforcements in Armacor® that are located on exposed areas (shoulders and elbows). Armacor® is a combination of high-tech fibers aramid (Kevlar) and CORDURA® with GORE-TEX. Rapto-R comes fully covered with protection in addition to shoulders, elbows, which are standard on almost all jackets, Rapto-R also has back and chest so it is completely full-fledged when it comes to protection, Rukka's own D3O Air XTR protection.
D3O is characterized by being soft and flexible, but when pressed hard, it becomes rock-hard and provides optimal safety, so they are soft and comfortable until you need to use them.
Rapto-R has also been equipped with a number of details such as an included extra collar that is completely in Gore-tex stretch and is perfect for riding in rain or colder temperatures, you can find it in a pocket in the neck.
It has wind and waterproof cuffs to keep out rain in a completely superior way.
It includes a down jacket that is perfect for riding in colder temperatures and can also be worn as a stylish autumn/spring jacket.
