Halvarssons adds Skalltorp and Nyvall to its lineup of timelessly stylish leather jackets

The new jackets Nyvall (women’s sizing) and Skalltorp (men’s sizing) are an all-new addition to the Halvarssons light, stylish and safe leather jackets. The vintage treated, soft-washed goat leather with HI-ART® reinforcement at shoulders and elbows makes for a jacket that is advanced in motorcycle safety. The leather used in the jackets is a by-product of the meat industry.

New lightweight leather jackets

• “Skalltorp” jacket, sizes 46-62 (black), 48-58 (cognac)
• “Nyvall” jacket, sizes 36-46 (black), 38-44 (cognac)

Bringing together style, a lightweight composition and safety
Despite the light appearance of the jackets, the Skalltorp and Nyvall are a proper piece of protective equipment with class AA CE certification.

Chest protector ready
The Halvarssons “Furudal” chest protector can easily be inserted into the jacket’s dedicated protector pocket. Once the jacket is closed, the protector remains in place and completely invisible. The jackets also come with an opening for a back protector.

High abrasion resistant textile (HI-ART®)
Halvarssons proprietary reinforcement material, HI-ART®, is highly durable but soft and breathable and is used under the outer layer. HI-ART®, in combination with leather, is more than 200% more abrasion resistant than the leather alone – a great way to keep safe on the road.

Next generation of protection
Halvarssons has fitted the new products with thin, light weight, and breathable level 2 protectors. New protectors can be found in the jackets’ shoulders and elbows.

Triple stitching on exposed seams
Triple stitching is another way of contributing to the long life of Halvarssons leather products. In practice this means creating three parallel stitching lines on the most exposed parts of the jacket, creating stronger seams.

Easy connection to pants and great ventilation
As with all Halvarssons jackets, the Skalltorp and Nyvall jackets come with a long connection zipper to the pants. Connecting the jacket to the pants results in a great fit and ensures that the garments stay in place in all situations. The “open back” design of the jacket means that excess heat will easily exit through the jackets big opening on the back.
