Textile Motorcycle Jackets

Leather jackets are for riding in the summer. Wax cotton is more practical than leather in many respects, and can look very cool. But for any form of serious riding, it’s a textile motorcycle jacket that you’re going to need. In the last 20 years, the technology involved in motorcycle clothing has advanced greatly, and nowhere is this more apparent than in textile jackets. A textile jacket doesn’t absorb water like leather, so it is always going to be better in the wet. But a modern textile jacket will often come with features such as a waterproof membrane, a removable thermal-liner, anti-abrasion panelling, waterproof zips, ventilation openings and exhausts, heat reflective coatings, high-vis areas, and so on. It’s a complicated area, and you should seek advice before taking the plunge. If you ride every day, you might want a jacket with a laminated waterproof membrane rather than the drop-liner that appears in most jackets. A laminated jacket is particularly waterproof, and will never ‘wet-out', but laminated jackets can be rather stiff, and so not particularly comfortable to wear.

Verified customer reviews for Textile Motorcycle Jackets

Brema Silver Vase jacket in green

Peter: Super Cool Jacket

Recently took advantage of a Sunday sale to buy another one of these jackets. As usual the service was 5 star. I have ridden 2 summers in the Brema Vase jacket and its my favourite jacket. I think its quite an unusual jacket because of how its constructed. Its highly breathable, stretchy and extremely flexible. Great in hot weather. Without armour you can roll this jacket up and stuff it in a rucksack ! I dont know of any other AA level Jacket you can do this with. I wear this jacket over my Knox armoured shirt so I cannot comment on how the jacket fits with armour in it. But without armour the jacket is perfect as an over jacket because of its flexibility. It fits perfectly. It works really well in a layer system. The jacket is stylish and still looks good after extensive use. Its of cause not waterproof but I just add a Scott Held waterproof over the top. As an added bonus the jacket works great as a casual jacket off the bike. A good destination jacket. As far as sizing Im 6 ft 42 in chest and normal wear LXL but needed to go up one size to a 2XL. Hope this review helps but Im sure any questions Chris and his team will help. Customer service is as always excellent. Thank you.

Klim Marrakesh jacket in black

David: Best jacket I ever bought

So comfortable, and great with the internal wind jacket to add seasons

Halvarssons Arvika jacket in dark grey

MikeG: Arvika Mesh Jacket

This is my first mesh jacket, bought for this summers baking hot weather. There is a weight and heft to the jacket, feeling substantial with large well placed armour that gives reassurance of standing up well if the unfortunate happens. There are plenty of pockets with good quality YKK zips. The mesh is along the arms, front of chest and back panel. The arms and chest work reasonably well, but if you fit a back protector you loose some of the cooling effect imho. I also like the full zip connector around the waist, which gives me the sense of added security in keeping the jacket in place. For the money, I think this is a really good jacket.
