A great value textile jacket which keeps you cool whilst offering protection in shoulders and elbows. Best at temperatures above 20 degrees C though.

Bought this because of the extra warm weather. Absolute game changer! Fit perfectly and so comfortable to wear. Just need to swap the back protector from my other jacket. Great service from SPORTSBIKESHOP as usual

The Oxford Spartan Air Textile has rounded off my summer riding perfectly! I have good seasonal riding gear but the one thing proved to be missing during the summers heatwaves was a light weight jacket. The Spartan fits the bill. Reading the reviews, one size up worked for me making it comfortable without being baggy. Plenty of length in the arms and the mesh around the jacket allows air to flow well on a hot day. It feels sturdy for a summer jacket but is light enough to wear off the bike too. It made the difference for me on this summers rides, 100% i would have another!

Sadly I didn't buy this until quite late into the summer, because it's a great piece of kit for the warm weather. For the price, it seems really well made, looks good, fits well, and it's very comfortable to wear. It provides loads of ventilation in hot weather ands is lightweight enough to slip a waterproof over if it rains. It doesn't come with back armour as standard, but I didn't expect it at this price point (and the optional back armour is a relatively cheap addition). Really pleased with this jacket. I just wish I'd bought it at the beginning of the summer.

Basic but good hot weather jacket. Comfortable to wear plus has the benefit of shoulder/elbow protection. Pockets are useable and secured. Overall a good jacket for the price.

The jacket is great in the summer, and does let good levels of air to flow through.
It's worth noting however that adding a back protector (even a D3O one which is fairly breatable), does limit the airflow somewhat. Still much nicer to ride in during the hotter days than other jackets.

I did however find that although the sizing is a bit short by the nature of the jacket, it fit snuggly for my usual size. However once adding in a back protector and sitting on the bike, it became very snug. I ordered a size up instead and this was much better,

Great jacket for the price, but order up a size

Jacket seems well made, and does let a good amount of air through. Adjustable arms etc is nice too.
Only gripes would be that with a back protector fitted (even a fairly unrestricted D3O one) the airflow is reduced somewhat. Also, I found the sizing a tad small. I'm usually a medium and on receipt it fitted fairly snug, but once fitting a back protector and sitting on the bike it became too tight. Ordered next size up and seems much better.
