Designed for women

The Lightest Jacket with L2 Protection
The Ellis jacket incorporates Sas-Tec Level 2 armor, which is known for its high level of impact protection.

Things to keep in mind to ensure the measurements are taken correctly.
- Take assistance from family member or a friend when measuring your size.
- Only use flexible tape, like a tailor’s tape.
- All the measurements must be in the same unit - cm or inches.
- Ideally wear a base layer while taking measurements, avoid anything bulky.
A) Chest - Wrap the tape measure around the widest part of the chest and do not inhale while taking the measurement. Tape measure over your chest should be comfortable i.e. not too tight or loose. Keep your arms loose on the sides and breathe in normally.
B) Waist - Measure the circumference of your waist over the belly button. Keep the tape parallel to the ground, not too loose or too tight.
C) Hips - Measure the circumference of your hips over the widest part. Keep the tape parallel to the ground, not too loose or too tight.
Find your jacket size by checking measurements against the size chart provided - If both the measurements do not fall in one particular size - use the larger of the two measures to choose the ideal jacket size. - If the two measurements are on the border line between two sizes, choose the one that offers a preferred fit i.e. sporty fit (lower size) or comfort fit (higher size) depending on your preference.
Remember, each brand has its own body size charts, so do check the chart before you select the size.
How to check if the armour is in the right position and how to make adjustments to ensure the armours stay in place while riding
Keep the jacket on for 5-10 min to get comfortable in it. Keep in mind that the Ellis is designed to work best in the riding posture with the arms forward. So other movements could feel restrictive.
STEP 1 -
Confirm that the armours are in the correct position - The jacket fit should be such that the armours are in the anatomically correct position. Since we are all unique, this could mean that the elbow armour might be slightly off in some cases depending on length of your arms.
STEP 2 -
Ensure the armours are properly positioned - In case the jacket fit is correct but the elbow armour is slightly off, use the cinching mechanism to adjust the elbow armour and bring it closer to your body. - To do so, first make sure the ladderlock is not on the same line as the webbing. Pull the ladderlock slightly away from the body, and simply pull it away from the loop to tighten or towards the loop to loosen. You also have cinch straps on the hips for adjustment.
Even the best protective armour is of no use if it is not in the right place. The exoskeleton of the Ellis Women's Riding Jacket is designed to sit close to the body to ensure that the armour stays in position without needing constant adjustment.
The placement of armour in your riding jacket is just as important as the type of armour used. ViaTerra deisgned the Ellis Jacket carefully to ensure that the SAS-TEC CE Level 2 armour is placed at (and stays in) the correct position when you're riding your motorcycle.
The Ellis offers superior impact protection and abrasion resistance despite being an extremely light and well-ventilated riding jacket. ViaTerra achieved this by using a combination of a special blend of mesh and fabric in the construction of the jacket, as well as by using premium SAS-TEC CE Level 2 protectors for the elbows, shoulder and back. Try one on today, and you will immediately understand what a huge difference this makes to the comfort of the rider.
The Ellis is designed to allow maximum ventialtion in all key areas as determined by the body heat map.
ViaTerra has ensured that the inner lining of our jacket pockets are made of mesh so that it does not inhibit the flow of air when you're on the move.
