The Gullinbursti Terix is a relatively normal looking black hoodie that has internal Dupont™ Kevlar® and (optional) removable armor in the elbows and shoulders for impact and abrasion protection.

The Terix is targeted at motorcyclists, however it has also been proving popular with urban cyclists, skateboarders, and others that face an increased risk of sudden, unwanted contact with the asphalt.

The word Gullinbursti comes from Old Norse, it means “Gold Mane” or “Golden Bristles,” it was used to describe a mythical giant wild boar with extraordinary strength and golden bristles. Legend has it that Gullinbursti was created when two gods threw a boar skin into a furnace and forged a new creature.

The team at Gullinbursti chose this name for their company based on the golden/yellow color of Kevlar, and the incredible strength of the material that lives up to the age old legend of the Norse boar.

Many motorcyclists want to wear protective gear, but they don’t want to look like MotoGP riders or lost cosplay festival attendees. As a result we’ve seen a rapid increase in the popularity of protective motorcycle gear that looks almost indistinguishable from regular streetwear.
