Summer Motorcycle Jackets

When the temperature hits the high 20s centigrade it is normally time to find a jacket without a waterproof membrane. Basically, any jacket with a waterproof membrane is likely to prove to hot in even the UK summer. Even with vents, the waterproof membrane acts as a windproof membrane and will stop the breeze reaching (and cooling) the body. 

We stock a variety of non-waterproof motorcycling jackets from a single A rated mesh jacket suitable for urban riding to something like the AA rated Klim Marrakesh jacket which can be worn touring the world (or just the county)! In truth there are now three varieties of Klim jacket that are suitable for the very highest temperatures offering airflow and protection. New for 2025, there are now two Rukka jackets that are right up there in competition to Klim.

Of course, the majority of leather jackets also do not have a waterproof membrane (although a few do) but they are not necessarily the most breathable option for the very hottest weather.

What is a good summer motorcycle jacket?

In our view, the best summer motorcycle jacket does not have a waterproof membrane. But, you must also have impact protection and abrasion resistance. So, a jacket that breathes well needs to be made from a technical fabric so that it still have protective qualities. The best armour is a soft and pliable armour which can breathe and new for 2025 D3O Diablo definitely helps on this score.

Klim Marrakesh jacket in teak brown

Gavin: Brilliant jacket

Ive got a few products from Klim, including Zodiak jacketpants. Wanted something for the warmer weather and to pair with riding jeans to use in UK and European tours. Have had chance to use over last few warm days and love this jacket. Even with upgraded armour, super lightweight feel and flexible - nothing like big adventure jackets. Looks fantastic and was in a dilemma about which colour. Went for brown and looks terrific. Motolegends quick postal service and well packaged. Im 510, 80 kgs, 3840 chest and medium is perfect .

Spidi Intersection jacket in black

Spico: Fab jacket for warm days

Top quality, absolutely fantastically well-made jacket. I dont bother with the water proof liner, I have better jackets for rainy days. This jacket is fine around 16 or 17 degrees Celsius without the need for any other layers, and the air flow is great so Im sure it will cope well at 25 or 30, from 10 to 17 degrees I wear a Oxford Atmos Thermo Fleece Jacket underneath and it is fine, great looking jacket at a great price. Win win buy one

Klim Marrakesh jacket in petrol blue

Jonathan: Best springsummer jacket

I snagged a great deal back in November on the Marrakesh jacket and pants from Motolegends. Today, with the forecast promising 20 degrees in the Peak District, I finally got chance to try out my new kit. Im used to wearing Rukka laminated kit, so the first thing I noticed is how light and flexible the Klim gear is. It was a chilly start so I layered accordingly, but once the temperature was over 16 the Marrakesh kit came into its own. I bought this gear fora trip to Greece later this year...looking forward to wearing this kit.
