Reviews Knox’s armoured shirt is protective, versatile, and cool enough for summer while allowing layering for chillier rides
Customers express satisfaction with their motorcycle jacket, noting its high-quality materials, snug fit, and protective features. It's praised for being versatile enough to layer under regular clothing, thereby offering safety without compromising style. The jacket is particularly appreciated for its comfort and breathability in warm conditions, though some find it less ventilated for extremely hot days. Customers also mention the armour's snug fit and its suitability for different body sizes, although a few critique the fit of sleeves. Some updates from previous versions, like additional pockets, are also well-received.
Really comfortable fit all the Armour seems to be in the right place for me so i feel it should protect me as well as it can if the worst should happen i also bought the additional chest protection and trousers to go with it really happy with it all.
This jacket fitted me perfectly I'm normally a 2xl and 2xl was a great fit.
Fantastic quality and will be great for hot summer days.
Ordered to try first and only took a day to get to my Bristol store where the staff are not pushy at all but very informative.
By far the best jacket on the market for air flow and without compromising safety. I’d looked at these for ages before buying. Just wish I’d bought it sooner, it’s superb !!!
A protective shirt you can wear in the Sahara, or on a polar ice cap, as you can add any layer you want, from your favourite salt rock hoodie, to a cheap Primark t-shirt and still be fully protected. Mine is a bit itchy, so I normally wear a base layer. Actually, you don't even need your Primark tee!
Bought the shirt and trousers in this set. Really good fit and very comfortable and light. Well armoured and great quality. I’ve worn in UK Autumn and 40 degrees in Southern Spain and have been comfortable throughout this temperature range. Easy recommendation!
Perfect for summer and winter when layered up
It fits really well and feels tough enough for the job without restricting movement. I bought it for the warm weather so haven’t tested it out on the bike yet but it’s exactly what I want.
Very good summer jacket, very well vented front and back, full armour, 2 nice size pockets, true to size, comfortable to wear.
Light, well protected and ventilated jacket. Thin and very flexible armours. You can wear on its own or top it up with casual cloths which is what I was looking for. Gor it on black friday discount 20% or 25%. Very pleased.
Perfect for those European tours when the weather is hot. You can also layer up so it’s perfect for most of the year even in the UK
This armoured top is brilliant, it’s as light as it can be for something so stirdy, while maintaining breathability too. Very happy with it and well justified for the price, love it.
Snug fit, felt pretty dear, but good production quality.
Bit restrictive of your arms moving up and down due to the armour pads, which if unlucky can bite your upper arm if not positioned properly.
You can pretty readily fit a normal jacket or hoodie over it when the temperatures begin to cool as a little bit of a windbreak, which is good.
Seems a good option if you're going to be going on tour and can expect a good swing in temperature.
Very comfortable armour go for the next size up to your normal size I found . Would recommend this to anyone
The Knox top feels well made.good armour fitted .I ordered the small and medium for size test and kept the size smaa as fit is good .my chest size is a 38 inch.also ordered the chest armour which is expensive for what it is. Jacket is nice and lightweight.
This is very comfortable and flexible. Looks cool on its own but for me the best part is wearing it on top of my base layer or work clothes and I can wear normal top, down jacket, wax jacket on top. Cannot fault it. Also amazing to get the airflow in summer!
Yet another excellent experience at SBS Bristol thank you all
Fits well and I’m far from ideal shape, it feels nice on, stretchy so feels secure on, armour stays in place, generous back protector, used it so far between 19° and 28° and felt good (just alter thin base layer to be ideal)
I’ve got their 3 in 1 jacket to go over the top so hopefully should be the only jacket I now need
Fantastic upper garment that is tea bag design to allow air flow through. AA rated so plenty of protection. Fits like a glove (I got one size larger than normal). They say it’s a jacket and it kind of is but I prefer to wear a T-shirt over which personally I feel looks a lot better.
This is a summer garment which I bought for my hot continental tours meaning I arrive as fresh as can be in the 30° plus heat.
If you ride in cool weather you can layer up but prob another jacket would be preferable.
I love this jacket. Best piece of summer kit I’ve ever had.
