The Good Wheels range also uses less packaging and is designed to be repairable so not only is it good for the environment during manufacture but it’ll also last longer as well.
The three new outerwear items in the Good Wheels collection are the mid-length men’s Orbis jacket, the men’s Monte parka and the women’s Stella parka. All three jackets are waterproof with a 10,000mm water column, they’re breathable and exude impeccable urban style that’s ready to tackle the cold of winter. Up to 30 plastic bottles are used to make each garment.
All jackets are CE motorcycle Class A certified, along with the key characteristics of Tucano Urbano jackets. They’re versatile thanks to the removable thermal inner lining for use across all seasons, and protective thanks to ultralight, ventilated CPS Aerosoft protectors on the shoulders and elbows as standard, as well as a pocket for an optional back protector.
Let’s take a look at them in a bit more detail.
Orbis
The Orbis is a laminated mid-length jacket featuring an extra-light inner vest that can be worn on its own. It’s designed with windbreaker panels on the front, a thermostatic Aero 3D mesh insert on the back and made with recycled polyester wadding to keep your core warm.
The ORBIS has a UK RRP £224.99 and is available in black (S-6XL) and airborne green (S-4XL)
Monte
This is a laminated, mid-length coat featuring a removable thermal-padded inner jacket for four-season use. The Monte jacket is sleek and simple on the outside but quite technical. Featuring a windproof cuff with thumb loops, an anti-flap adjustable hood, passenger hand-warming pockets and different-sized internal and external pockets, including an inside chest pocket with microfibre lining for glasses. Whilst the outer is made with recycled polyester, the inner thermal jacket is made with recycled polyester wadding and can be worn as a separate garment.
The Monte has UK RRP £249.99 and is available in dark blue, in sizes S-3XL.
Stella
Part of Tucano Urbano’s 2023 ladies’ collection, the Stella jacket is the women’s equivalent of the Monte. It’s a laminated four-season women’s parka with a removable thermal inner jacket and close attention to detail has been paid to the technical features that make every ride more convenient.
The Stella retails at £249.99 and is available in dark blue and airborne green, in sizes XS-2XL.
Globis
The Good Wheels collection is completed by Tucano Urbano’s Globis CE-certified winter gloves with a stretch, recycled polyester back and leather palm. With its waterproof and breathable inner membrane and soft CPS armour on the knuckles, the Globis gloves are the perfect match to the Orbis jacket
The Globis gloves have UK RRP £57.99 and are available in black, in sizes S-3XL.
Airscud
Tucano have also joined the growing air bag sector with their Airscud Jacket. The jacket contains the excellent In&motion air bag system to protect the upper body and vital organs in the event of a crash.
You can also buy it as just a vest to wear under (or over) your usual jacket and you can choose to add sleeves later if you like, attaching them via the patented Arm Link system.
The jacket costs £479.99 and the Airscud range can be found here.

I’ve now been able to read the articles. Not sure what happened.
Hello Mark, I had a bit of a technical problem. I spent 3 hours writing and laying the article out, published it and all the content vanished!
I then spend a further 2 hours rewriting and doing it again. Thankfully you could read it
