Incorporating our lightest, most flexible and machine washable ARMA active polymer padding at both the elbow and shoulder, the Impact Pro Base Layer offers a highly technical 3/4 length sleeve, fast-wicking protective cycling base layer, suitable for a variety of weather conditions.
Just 4mm tapering to 1mm thick at its maximum and rated to EN1621-1 motorcycle standard, ARMA padding is capable of absorbing and safely dissipating up to 80% of impact energy, should the worst happen out on the bike.
The AERO base layer was tested at Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub through a wind tunnel session by @WattShop and Ribble Weldtite. Results show that in certain conditions, the AERO base layer actually improves rider aerodynamics.

EASY CLEAN
ARMA is fully machine washable at 30°C with no loss of impact performance properties
SHOCK FREEZE SYSTEM
ARMA absorbs and dissipates energy greatly; greatly reducing up to 80% of impact forces transmitted to the body.
ULTRA SLIM PADDING
Even at a thickness of only 4mm ARMA protects the body on hard impacts.
SELF REGENERATIVE
Unlike PU or EPS foams, ARMA can take multiple impacts onto the same point without being destroyed.
AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM
ARMA is based on an open re-entrant structure, allowing natural ventilation and airflow around the body.
ARMA is a revolutionary new energy absorbing material, designed to alter the way we think about protecting the human body from impact and injury. We incorporate these ultra slim ARMA impact protection pads into the critical areas of our garments, including the hip, shoulder and elbow, to offer EN1621-1 approved impact and coverage protection.
Road.cc tested our base layer and gave it a stunning review...
"It's very good: it performed very well, it's comfortable to wear, can be used for a wide mix of riding, and the padding appears very functional. It can be machined washed, it wicks sweat well and doesn't look awkward or obvious."
