The Super Sprint D-Dry is a sporty motorcycle jacket with built‑in waterproof capability. Dainese combines a sharp, race‑inspired cut with an integrated D‑Dry membrane and a removable thermal liner, creating a motorcycle jacket that feels at home on motorways, twisty backroads and mountain passes, and that can handle a rain shower without needing a separate rain suit.
The outer shell of the Super Sprint D-Dry uses wear‑resistant textile with stretch inserts that preserve freedom of movement without losing the close, athletic fit. Direct ventilation zips (on the sides) of the chest and on the back let fresh air in when needed; snap tabs let you hold the vents slightly open so you really feel the effect. The zips have drainage channels to maintain the Super Sprint D‑Dry’s waterproofing. The D‑Dry membrane is integrated and non‑removable; the thermal liner can be zipped out.
The Super Sprint D‑Dry motorcycle jacket is compatible with Dainese’s Smart Air airbag system, though any standalone airbag vest can also be worn over it if preferred.
The A rating of the Super Sprint D‑Dry motorcycle jacket confirms that this is a road‑focused sport motorcycle jacket rather than pure track gear. It is a sporty design with features aimed squarely at real‑world riding. Removable PRO‑ARMOR Level 1 shoulder and elbow protectors come as standard, with dedicated pockets for optional chest and back protectors. PU sliders on the shoulders clearly nod to Dainese’s racing heritage, even though this motorcycle jacket is not developed as a circuit suit.
The fit is genuinely sporty and snug. The Super Sprint D‑Dry is not a roomy touring motorcycle jacket but a close‑fitting piece that wears much like a leather sport motorcycle jacket. Waist, arms, wrists and collar are adjustable via snap buttons, allowing you to fine‑tune and personalise the fit. Stretch inserts ensure the jacket moves with you while you ride, including in a more forward‑leaning stance on a sports motorcycle.
A long connection zip mates the motorcycle jacket to compatible Dainese motorcycle trousers, though many riders will naturally pair it with quality motorcycle jeans as well. Reflective details are positioned where they work best without being overdone. Storage is on the modest side, in line with the sporty focus of this motorcycle jacket: two external zipped hand pockets and a few internal pockets give enough room for essentials.
The Super Sprint D‑Dry sits firmly in the sport motorcycle jacket category while adding waterproof performance you will not always find in this style of motorcycle gear.
