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...
Customers appreciate the riding shirt's robust quality and comfort. Its stretchable fabric offers good freedom of movement, and the protective elements like D30 armour are discreet yet reassuring. Despite being slightly heavy, it remains cooler than leather jackets, making it ideal for warm rides. Pockets add practicality, while the jacket's stylish design makes it suitable off the bike too. The fit aligns well with chest size recommendations, accommodating additional layers when needed. Overall, it’s highly recommended for its safety, style, and versatility.
Excellent service and price for this essential summer shirt for short trips out and around town. So comfortable with its stretch fabric and looks good too. If I needed to I would definitely buy again.
I wanted a riding shirt to go with my R18 in warmer weather but really couldn't see me wearing the checked alternatives on the market. I read all of the glowing reviews on the Merlin Brody and figured they couldn't all be wrong.
Sizing is spot on (48 UK = 3XL) but used SBS excellent 'try before you buy' anyway just to make sure.
AA rated and added a D30 back protector - what's not to like? Highly recommended.
Just getting back into biking and wanted a shirt for the summer months. This is a well made shirt with quality fasteners and armor in the right places. . I'm a slim 6.2 and 13 stone and the large is a perfect fit leaving room for a tee shirt underneath. This shirt looks good on or off the bike.
Comfortable, great fit and good quality.
Excellent quality jacket, good air flow, impressively discrete armour. Looks great & I'd even wear it to the pub. I'm 6'1 & about 90-95kg & the large is a perfect fit with a t shirt underneath
Had my eye on a brody riding shirt for a while. Quality is superb, very comfortable on the bike with some good stretch in the material. Feels more substantial than other riding shirts and offers good wind protection.
This riding shirt is of excellent quality. It fits well and as the material is slightly stretchy it is super comfortable. I am a size 41/42 chest and I found the XL to be a perfect fit, with a little room to put a thin fleece/ jersey on underneath to extend its seasonal use. All pockets are perfectly placed and zippered. I bought the D30 Ghost back armour Armour which is a Perfect fit. Buy one. It will make a lot of your other jackets and riding tops redundant.
Purchased this jacket as a summer jacket but still comes with the necessary protection. Excellent fit and very comfortable
Settled on the Body D30 after looking for a summer jacket the was a good fit and safe. I'm so glad I did as the fit is excellent. Worn it out on the bike a few times now and I'm very happy with it. I found it to be true to fit. Thank you again SBS for a speedy delivery.
Saw this shirt hanging up in a biker cafe and immediately liked the look of it, tried it on and it was too small, I needed the next size up but they didn't have it. Then I thought I wonder if SBS would have it and they did have my size and colour and it was £15 less. I ordered it straight away and received it 2 days later. It fits perfectly very comfortable and makes a nice change from wearing leather, especially on the warmer days and it goes great with the retro triumph look. Not sure how it would handle a rain storm but I am a fair weather rider so all good. I have even wore it when not out on the bike as I like it so much, well done SBS and Merlin for a fantastic product very comfy and well made and British.
Really comfortable, stylish and aa rated. Sportsbikeshop great as always
I bought this shirt for a bike trip around Gran Canaria. It's perfect, lightweight (considering the inbuilt protection) and has the pockets (including zipped ones). I felt reassured there was armour inside and was surprised this could be a AA ie the same rating as my Merlin touring jacket. The fit is good (go by the chest size), I'm normally a Large in clothes but XL in bike jackets and the XL fitting perfectly. It's so good I would consider buying another of a different colour
Love this jacket. Great quality and very durable. Very cool.
Really like this shirt. Great service from sportsbikeshop as always.
Great product really well made and size as stated , the new D30 very comfortable to wear.
Perfect fit, 44 chest/xl. Excellent quality from Merlin and quick delivery from Sportsbikeshop.
Stylish with quality studs and zip, it's great that the side pockets also have zips. ideal for wearing during the summer months, I also wear it on colder days underneath a jacket instead of a fleece. Very well made and should give me years of use.
I Love this Jacket. Very pleased with it. Yes you could get different brands cheaper but it looks very cool & is well fitted (almost a slim fit but stretchy) & it has invisible light protection too. Perfect if we ever get an actuall summer!
5'11 . 13 .6 stone 34 Jean size & a Large in this Jack is perfect & fitted not baggy. .
