One jacket for all four seasons: how the Invictus triple layer system works
How many motorcycle jackets do you need? If you own an Invictus Cordura with triple layer system, the answer is one. A single jacket that adapts to winter cold, autumn rain, spring wind and summer heat. No gimmicks. Just engineering.
What is the Invictus triple layer system?
The Invictus triple layer (tricapa) system consists of three independent, removable layers:
- Cordura outer shell: The tough outer layer. High-tenacity Cordura fabric that protects against abrasion in a fall. This is where the CE shoulder and elbow protectors are sewn in.
- Breathable waterproof membrane: A thin, lightweight layer that blocks water but lets sweat escape. Clips inside the shell and comes off in seconds.
- Quilted thermal liner: An inner jacket that provides warmth without excessive bulk. Fully removable and independent.
How to combine layers based on the weather
| Weather | Layers you wear | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Cold and dry winter | Shell + thermal | Warm without membrane. Better breathability |
| Cold and rainy winter | Shell + membrane + thermal | Maximum protection. Warm and dry |
| Rainy autumn / spring | Shell + membrane | Dry without overheating |
| Cool spring | Shell + thermal | Just the right amount of warmth |
| Summer | Shell only | As cool as possible with protection |
The key is modularity. You don’t wear a heavy jacket year-round — you wear a smart jacket that changes with you.
Invictus models with triple layer system
Not all Invictus Cordura jackets have the full triple layer system. Here are the ones that do:
| Model | Price | Triple layer | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tulkas | €179-193.95 | Yes, full system | Bestseller. Men & women. The Invictus triple layer reference |
| Heracles | €164-165 | Yes, full system | Urban style, reflective details, modern cut |
| Lagertha | €150 | Removable membrane | 3/4 women’s, adventurer style |
| Lannister | €159.59 | Thermal + membrane | 3/4 with fur collar, elegant winter style |
| Kerber | €149.95 | Membrane + thermal | Urban with character, premium finishes |
For pure summer riding, the Ícaro (€124) and Ares (€140) are designed with mesh panels and direct ventilation — they don’t have the triple layer because they don’t need it.
Invictus Tulkas: the triple layer queen
If we had to recommend one single motorcycle jacket for year-round use, it would be the Invictus Tulkas. It’s the brand’s bestseller for a reason:
- Full triple layer system (Cordura + membrane + thermal)
- CE protectors on shoulders and elbows
- Back protector pocket
- Available in men’s and women’s versions
- From €179 — at that price, you won’t find anything comparable on the market
Why Cordura and not just polyester?
Cordura is not just any polyester. It’s a high-tenacity nylon fiber originally developed for military use. Its abrasion resistance is far superior to conventional polyester, making it the reference textile material for motorcycle clothing.
Invictus uses quality Cordura in their textile jackets, ensuring the outer shell doesn’t just handle wind and friction — it genuinely protects you in a fall.
Is it worth it versus a leather jacket?
It depends on what you’re after:
- Invictus leather jacket: Classic style, café racer, vintage. Perfect for fair-weather riding or city use. Not waterproof.
- Invictus triple layer jacket: Total versatility. For year-round riders who face rain and cold. More practical, less romantic.
Many riders end up owning both: a leather jacket for sunny days and a triple layer for daily commuting. With Invictus, you can afford both without emptying your bank account.
