Used for a trip to the french alps July 26 when both the UK and europe had some high temps. The jacket flt comfy with the waterproof liner and back protector in place, a little looser as you'd expect when the liner was remove, which it was for the whole trip. I wore with long sleeve sun block vest from Lidl which ticked the box. Armour felt comfortable, two external pockets provided a useful space but not super large, and a larger internal pocket with velco closure was handy.

The lowest temp we saw on the trip was 18deg and I did'nt need to add any additional layers, having the sun out helped and riding slower because we where on mountain passes potentially helped, at motorway speeds an extra layer may have been required.

Out of Folkstone it was 22, windy and cloudy, i'd say this was on the edge of OK.

The highest temp was 38deg and it was warm but I think anything waould have been with the exception of losing the jacket altogher and riding in a long sleeve top which I was'nt prepared to do.

For reference i'm 6'3" and 40" chest, jacket did not feel short in length or arms.

Just used this for a 2000 mile tour of the Alps. It's light weight and the mesh venting works well below 30° C. Don't really notice it above that but that's because the air going through is warm. I normally would buy a medium but went for the large as a previous customer has said they thought is was a bit small. However i do find the large a bit large. I think the medium would have been fine. Doesn't come with a back protector. So don't forget to budget for that. My only dislike is that there is only one internal pocket. Could do with one each side.

Great jacket, especially at sale price.

Great jacket over all, although I have given it 4 stars because there is nowhere to store the WP liner when not in use.
I wore this on a recent 215 mile ride around the mountains and valleys of South & Mid Cymru and it performed well, from the 8am start in temperatures in the high teens (with liner in) to late afternoon when the temperatures was in the high 20's (liner out). Good fit, same as my other Oxford gear with upgraded back protection in.
The blue on the sleeves is much nicer in reality.
Not worn in the rain yet but been a god sent in the recent heat wave.
Great service from SBShop as always. Am looking forward to the Cardiff store opening.

Another great Oxford product. The mesh all over jacket really works in the crazy temperatures recently. So will be used on Europe trip coming up. Safety liners need upgrading..(why?) Pockets ok but could be bigger. Liner fits well and not used yet in rain but useful when temperature drops in evening.

Performed very well in extremely hot weather. (Up to 40.5'C)
Light and comfortable to wear, well ventilated and good weather protection. (It rained all the way to Plymouth ferry and performed well in the rain)
Folds up quite small and easy to tuck into a top box when required. This was a last minute buy for a hot trip. I was very pleasantly surprised with the jackets all round performance & comfort

Great value, green lanes in 28’ and didn’t boil (apart from picking up my bike!). The back protector is extra, but at the price I can’t complain

I chose this as it was Ride recommendation. I went up a size based on feedback from others. Just pulling away you notice the impact of the mesh on the sleeves. I added an Oxford level 2 back protector.

Very impressed with this jacket - well made and great in the current heatwave. The liner is great for the cooler morning. Looks great too! I added the Oxford Level 2 back projector - great value.

Well made summer mesh jacket. Good airflow on hot days without the liner. On cooler days or when weather is changeable, there is a removable waterproof liner which is simple to zip in and out. Adjustable cuffs, zip pockets, elbow and shoulder protection, pocket for a back protector make this a practical summer jacket. A godsend on our recent bike tour when temperatures were in the 30s.

Great jacket for those hot sunny days,
good air flow through the jacket, has 3 useful pockets, 2 handwarmer pockets and 1 inner mesh pocket all are a good size good size
also has a removable rainproof/windproof inner jacket, not tested in wet weather, which is were the waterproof inner pocket is.
comes with shoulder and elbow armour but not back armour,
I got the back armour, fits well in the jacket, would have liked it to be a little longer

Great bit of kit, very light and airy, and at the same time doesn't feel unsafe. Absolute winner for the high temperatures of the summer. Oh, and the waterproof liner is really good too!! It's easy to remove or put back in, and doesn't take up hardly any room in a bag. I'm just about to buy the trousers to go with it. Topjob! Well worth the money.
