advrider Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 It might not be as big a deal as the company’s actual motorcycle lineup, but BMW has launched its catalog of new and returning riding gear for 2022. There’s a mix of urban, sport and adventure gear, including the popular Rallye suit returning with some changes. As per the catalog: The GS Rallye GTX suit in new, modern look is a real globetrotter made of abrasion-resistant polyamide-cotton material. Due to the newly developed special fabric, it is also extremely well ventilated. The watertight outsert of jacket and trousers is made with a GORE-TEX® membrane and provides optimum protection from wind, weather and dirt. The suit is suitable for hot to medium temperatures … BMW now offers the Rallye suit in women’s sizes 34-48; before, it was only available in men’s sizes. The new three-layer Karakum suit.

Photo: BMW There’s also a new GS Rallye AIR suit, available in women’s and men sizes. Made of abrasion-resistant polyamide-cottin fabric, it’s intended for warmer weather, with camo-style fabric mixed with more conservative BMW styling. Like the standard Rallye suit, this carries a AA protection rating. There’s also a new GS Karakum GTX suit. This is a multi-layer suit (all the rage with performance-minded ADVers these days), aimed at more technical riding. As per the press release: The new GS Karakum GTX suit is the most sporty GS Adventure suit ever designed by BMW Motorrad. The softshell Enduro concept suit with three-piece jacket and two-piece trousers meets the highest demands. This is noticeable and visible from the first time you put it on. The first layer of the jacket is soft and warming. The second layer is the main suit and is made of particularly abrasionresistant, yet elastic polyamide. It is designed in an uncompromising manner for sporty, active riding at warm to high temperatures and for long distances, including off-road. The third layer made of GORE-TEX® 3-layer laminate extends the range of use of the main suit to poor and cold weather conditions. Sorry, female riders, the Karakum suit is only available in men’s sizes. For local pricing and availability, your best bet is to get down to your local dealership, as that’s where you’ll have to order the gear anyway. They should have a print catalog with your options for ordering, and maybe even a test example for trying on, which is the best option, since ordering stuff online is somewhat dicey when it comes to sizing.
