Abstract:
Motorcycle clothing, due to the specific aspects related to its field of use, especially in the area of public safety, requires a special approach already at the design level. The aim of the interdisciplinary research was to develop textile motorcycle suits (variants for summer and winter use) for police officers conducting operational activities on motorcycles. As part of the design research, the principles of design thinking were taken into account, considering material aspects and usability engineering, which allowed for the implementation of a design, material, and usability strategy, as well as the communication message. The developed prototypes of the suits met the requirements of PN-EN 13595 normative documents, indicating that the required safety requirements were met. The introduced principles of design thinking also took into account the aspects of designing a communication message, taking into account the principles of usability technology.
