I went with the Cortech this spring. Not the coolest in 100* heat but does flow a lot of air.Looking for some suggestions. I'm looking for a summer jacket with armor (??) for someone that rides in hot weather. Inland areas of southern California. It's a CBR600F4I since I assume bike style matters for selections.
Too many options and I don't know what is really any good. Not concerned on price at this point. Just where to focus the search.
Thanks in advance.
Man, that's beautiful! Please put on pants and other stuff before riding.

Literally my first thought when I got a notification that he posted in this threadPlease put on pants and other stuff before riding.
I spent a lot of time away from home on the bike. I would use a joe rocket mesh jacket with armor and a quality rain jacket that is sized big enough to fit over the joe rocket jacket. That gave me cool comfort and warmth without being too much to carry in the duffel bag. I looked into jackets with zip out liners, but that would have been one more thing to carry. Cross country touring on a sporty bike does not allow a lot of baggage space.Looking for some suggestions. I'm looking for a summer jacket with armor (??) for someone that rides in hot weather.

I've owned quite a few. My favorite is the KLIM Induction Pro. Expensive but CE AA RATING CERTIFIED to EN 17092-3 standards. Top safety certification you can get for street use, AAA rating is for track use. Most jackets that are certified are CE A rated. Some jackets are not certified or use certified armor in an uncertified jacket.Looking for some suggestions. I'm looking for a summer jacket with armor (??) for someone that rides in hot weather.
