Motorcycle CE armour markings explained
If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...

It's cool, both looks and more importantly, when riding in hot weather. I like the lightness as well.
This is a beautiful leather jacket. I bought the medium and it fits snuggly. It feels very high quality, and smells great. Really leather always does. Level 1 armour in the shoulders and the elbows. There is a pouch in the back for back armour to be fitted as required. It is a good lightweight alternative to my heavier textile touring gear for nipping around town to the shops and back. Nice chilled gear for a dry day. I would definitely recommend this jacket, it does not disappoint.
Decent fit and light weight. Certainly feels better in the higher temps and my t-shirt was dripping in sweat after the ride. I wear a think fleece when the temp is below 20 though. It's basically a mesh coat with fitted Armour, but pretty comfy.
Hopefully never find out how well it copes sliding down the road as it doesn't feel that robust, but impossible to tell until after the event.
pretty happy with it though
Very comfortable and fits well. RST is well made
Super light and airy which is exactly what I brought it for. Comfy riding in 33 degrees, great value for money
