Gryphon Badwater Jacket

Built for ADV riders who demand versatility, durability, and all-day comfort, the Gryphon Badwater Motorcycle Jacket is a 2-in-1 solution for serious adventure riding. The ¾ length main jacket features extensive high-flow mesh panels for superior ventilation and a removable kidney belt for core stability, keeping you comfortable and supported on long, technical rides.

For wet or windy conditions, the lightweight waterproof Softshell rain layer goes over the main jacket or can be worn on its own. Its integrated armor pockets allow you to transfer the ForceTech CE Level 2 vented protection from the main jacket, giving you a fully protected, stand-alone riding jacket in any situation.

Riders get a precision fit with the COMFORT FIT neoprene collar, pant connection zipper, side gussets, and thumb-hole hand covers that keep the jacket in place during aggressive riding. With two large side cargo pockets, a large rear waterproof cargo pocket, zippered arm pocket, and Gryphon Max Storage system, the Badwater combines storage, airflow, and protection — making it the ultimate choice for adventure motorcyclists tackling variable terrain and conditions.
