The latest in riding jackets.

I knew they could get pricey. I bought my leather jacket on ebay a long, long time ago. Too hot for summer though. Some of these offering are really nice...and you pay for it too.

Some of the modern technical mesh type gear is amazing.
My leather jacket is over 25 years old, so fits me like a glove, but feels very second rate
compared to my textile gear.
I’ve got a mesh jacket and it transforms riding in hot weather, especially when worn with a wicking t shirt underneath.
I’ve also got a mid jacket called a Rukka Raymond, it’s very breathable but not full mesh.
And I’ve got full on winter gear.
Spending money on good riding gear is a no brainer IMO. The comfort transforms your riding, and the protection is priceless, especially so as we age and bounce less well and take longer to recover.
