The new Touratech Companero World 2 maintains all of the features of the original suit, but various modifications have been made based on thousands of users’ experiences and advances in technology.

Thanks to a new fabric with greater air-flow – Cordura Air – in the ventilated zones, the inner summer suit is now even cooler, yet at the same time more resilient. Cordura 500 is used as the base material, while the additional shoulder and elbow layers are made of even stronger Cordura 2000. Another new material, incorporating woven reflective threads, is used to help create maximum visibility.

There are a lot of upgrades to the World 2, but probably the most visible is the way the outer layer is stored. Instead of a zip-on back pocket, it now comes in a slender backpack with expanding zippers. The backpack straps ensure optimum weight distribution and can be discreetly concealed when not in use. The backpack can be used separately on short excursions.

Because the zipper placements on the Companero World 2 are identical with those on the original, jackets and trousers from both suits can be combined. Like the original, the Companero World 2 is produced in collaboration with German manufacturer Stadler.
