Manufacturer since 1991.
At home in Lower Bavaria.

PROTECTIVE has been around since 1991. The brand was built by snowboarders and mountain bikers who were looking for clothing that could keep up outdoors.

Little has changed since. We develop our own cuts. We choose pads and fabrics from specialist manufacturers and try new things when they make a difference on the bike. Kapok in a jersey is one example.

Founded near Munich, today at home in Jahrdorf near Passau. We carry Santic as a third-party brand in its own category.

Long may the ride! R.O.D

“Personally, I wear a sporty black, sometimes combined with a cheerful black, depending on how the day is going.”
