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...
Jacket is very comfortable and great value. Delivery was super quick. Many thanks
Purchased in July 2022; used a couple of times now.
Good bits - usual Dainese quality. It's well made, the stitching is sound and feels really comfortable when on and off the bike.
Bad bit - not possible to have the hoody bit attached and wear my helmet (I have a Shoei GT Air). The hoody bit came off straight away - it's detachable so no drama there.
However, the jacket has a high and fairly robust neck line, such that it does feel odd when zipped up - and catches the chin bar on my helmet. This compromises the movement of the head when observing left and right, and doing life savers. I got around this by simply not zipping it all the way up - it's a summer jacket so this isn't a problem, but I think it would be annoying, or even uncomfortable if zipped all the way.
If you are prepared to over look this issue, I recommend this summer jacket.
I paired it with Dainese back and chest protectors. They fit perfectly and don't impact the general feel or comfort of the jacket.
