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.

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.

Belstaff Tamar jacket in black

David S: My go-to Jacket

Really impressed with the Belstaff Tamar. Its comfortable, stylish, offers excellent protection, and has quickly become my go-to jacket. The airflow is the standout features for me. Once youre on the move, the ventilation works really well and keeps me cool and comfortable, even on hot summer rides. I opted for the D3O Viper Air Level 2 back protector, which fits perfectly and adds extra reassurance without affecting comfort. The sizing was spot on. I ordered my usual size Large, 40-inch chest, and theres still enough room to comfortably wear my Belstaff down jacket underneath on cooler days without the jacket feeling tight or restrictive. The Tamar feels exceptionally well made, with the premium quality and attention to detail youd expect from Belstaff. As always, the service from Motolegends was excellent.
