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.

Klim Baja S4 jacket in monument grey / black

David Miles Griffiths: Klim Baja S4

If you want one of the best hot weather jackets, look no further than the Klim Baja S4. This jacket is a premium piece of kit that provides exceptional air flow but keeps you protected at the same time. Klim market the Baja as an off road jacket but I have upgraded the armour and ride ninety percent on the road and find it incredibly confidence inspiring.

Rukka Air Vihti jacket in grey

Los: Superb

My first delivery had an issue with one of the pockets, but was sorted quickly and efficiently, so thank you for that. The jacket itself I found to be extremely comfortable, practical and works very well Germany in 34 degree heat. The layering system advocated by Motolegends is not something I have tried as yet. The pockets are adequate for most things- wallet, passport and so on, and there are plenty of them. Criticism? None for the jacket as it is, but Rukka should fit a back protector, not leave it as an option.

Belstaff Tamar jacket in olive

Gerry: Summer jacket

It betters the Marrakesh in comfort and weight . More focused on being a great summer airflow jacket thats light and stylish , would thoroughly recommend , but beware of the fit on belstaff they may offer more sizes but they are in a narrower band , my 5xl Belstaff is about the same size as a 2xl Marrakesh
