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 Knox Action Pro Shirt for its comfort, lightweight design, and flexibility, making it ideal for layering under different garments. Many note its great fit and recommend sizing up for a less snug feel. The shirt is praised for its excellent protection while maintaining a sleek appearance. Although it's only A-rated, customers find it suitable for their riding needs when paired with outerwear. A few mention slight inconveniences with thumb loops, but overall satisfaction is high for this versatile product.
Great jacket, looks good and fits under most jackets, I went one size bigger and fits perfect, I'd recommend sizing up on this
Shirt feels great and hope the protection will work well if needed. Bought to go under heated jacket along with the Wellbeck waterproof.
I wanted to upgrade the foam pads in my Goretex jacket. I also have the Urbane Pro which fits underneath if I take out the insulation layer. Decided to buy this when I saw the sale price. Not much more than the cost of the armour alone, and it fits under my Goretex with the insulation layer.
I already own a Knox Urban Pro jacket and wanted to try a Action Pro Shirt.
Super comfortable, nicer cuffs, i am a happy motorcyclist.
I sized up like i did with the Urban, perfick!
Really comfortable shirt. Bought to wear on the DGR. Perfect, feels reassuring but really comfortable. I forget I'm wearing it.
Knox armour vest. Very comfortable, fit is good.
I have used a couple of times, not for a long ride out. So far all is good.
You can hardly feel that you are wearing armour with this jacket and allows me to wear casual leather jackets on top of this or other motorcycle jackets to increase the safety rating of the product without all the additional bulky armour within the jacket. Highly recommend only drawback is it's A rated, so I look forward to Knox producing a double or triple A version.
I wanted an armoured lightweight jacket for the summer to wear under normal, non-armoured clothing so as not to have to spend a fortune on separates, the price of which can be ridiculous.
The first item I purchased was too tight and too bulky so I decided to take it back in person so that I could try the other jackets that were in stock.
I decided on the Knox Action Pro Shirt, because it was so comfortable and could easily be worn with moto-cross style shirts or even my checked padded shirt over the top.
Really looking forward to some warm weather now so I can try these combinations out.
Many thanks to Adam at SPORTSBIKESHOP near Boston. Really helpful and nothing too much trouble despite how many times he got sent back into the stores for yet another jacket.
Purchased recently as I do occasionally get to too warm when riding but don't want to sacrifice protection levels. Have worn it on a couple of warm afternoons and have been really pleased with it. Very comfortable and I can wear it under my normal bike gear too. Looking forward to summer.
I bought this armoured shirt as I wanted motorcycle protection that was more comfortable, flexible and versatile. The action pro shirt definitely ticks that box for me.
The armour feels like it's in exactly the right place. It feels reassuringly secure without being restrictive. Another plus point for me is that it can be easily worn under other jackets. Layering up makes more sense for me rather than trying to find one jacket that is protective, warm in winter, cool in summer, waterproof and looks good. With this, you have a good level of protection and you can added additional layers that suit the weather and time of year.
The only slight negative for me is that the thumb loops feel like they're slightly in the wrong place so they stretch quite a bit at an awkward angle. It's a minor point though and after a while you don't notice them.
I did try the urbane pro before this as I wanted a AA rated jacket ideally but I found that one restrictive, so went for this one instead. It's A rated but that suits most of the riding I do and I will always have another jacket over the top.
Good shirt feel comfortable in it and I love the belt loops that keep it in place, for the British summer so far it's actually too cold to wear on its own so I just stick my normal jacket on top for warmth and extra protection with no problem. Only issue is the thumb loops are a bit too tight for my longer arms.
I ride a modern classic motorcycle and like to wear attire which matches that of the same theme. This can be difficult but after making this purchase I can now wear what I like over the top! The Knox Action Pro Shirt is absolutely fantastic for what I need (especially as I only ever travel at slower speeds on mentioned motorcycle).
Anyone riding a modern classic wanting to look dapper in the DGR would benefit from the under protection this provides.
Would definitely recommend sizing up (as fit is snug as per purpose of garment).
Sportsbikeshop gave amazing service as usual with quality product.
Thank you.
Lightweight, comfortable garment which is well constructed which enables different layers dependent on the weather and type of road trip
This is just what I wanted, I wear it under a aramid hoodie and it works perfectly. It's very well made and really comfortable. Order a size up if you don't like a snug fit!
This review is about SportsBikeshop's service: very helpful on the phone with advice and posted immediately, so the jacket arrived in time for an unplanned trip. Excellent and thank you.
Excellent product - very comfortable under any clothing works well for me under Knox Dual Jacket - will be very good in the summer under lighter clothing when on sports bike
Feels so supple and comfortable especially on elbows. Not like other body armour. Really good fit and flexible, only been on one ride for about 4 hours. Makes you feel secure and protected. Top class product and top class service from the guys at Boston sportsbikeshop.
Another great product from Knox. An upgrade for my Urbane pro jacket. Excellent product, great price from Sportsbikeshop. Great customer service from the Harlow store. Thank you.

Unfortunately, this is a personal choice. Whilst the armour shoulder/elbow is level 1, back protector level 2 , chest protector available separately, you will find higher level of abrasion resistant with some textile jackets with this armour.
