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...
If you can you should. You never know it might save your life. It’s a bit warm in sunny days due to the plastic air bags. I use it as a base layer with armour close to skin and wear larger waterproof
I've rated this as five stars because of the quality of the jacket. The app is totally useless. Does not connect even when jacket is registered. Jacket would not activate on a Mac so only the windows version of the software would work and had to be connected via the USB cable. None of this is really clear on the website.
Very comfortable to wear, despite being heavier than I expected.
The only slight negative is the catch at the top, which is also the on button, I find this fiddly to connect.
I found the size slightly smaller than I expected, the next size up was a perfect fit.
The Smart Jacket LS is a ventilated motorcycle jacket that combines the versatility of a light, ventilated garment with the intelligence and ultimate protection of the Dainese D-air airbag system. It can be used as a normal ventilated jacket, without the need for other coordinating garments, and does not require a subscription. Made of certified, abrasion-resistant, ventilated fabric, it is also suitable for use on the hottest days, ensuring excellent breathability. The Dainese D-air system used in MotoGP and developed over 25 years of research monitors what is happening around the rider 1,000 times per second with its seven sensors. With no need for cables or connections, it autonomously detects any dangerous situation and immediately activates the Shield, an engineered microfilament airbag that offers the highest level of protection to the chest and back, also limiting any neck and helmet movement. The system activates and protects in the event of sliding, high side, impact with an obstacle or vehicle, or rear-end collision, even when stationary.
