Lets see your jackets

[fraze11]

In the simiar spirit of the 'Lets see your helmet' thread I thought it would be cool to see what other people have for jackets and I haven't seen a thread like this yet? Might give me (and others) some ideas on a new jacket, plus we all love to look at pictures   I just picked this guy up at a motorcycle show last month for 99 bucks.  It has a removable inside liner, light armour in the elbows, shoulder and back and its a good heavy leather ... and it matches my bikes colours.  The second one is my everyday riding jacket similar specs as the new one, just a little plainer. 

What's everyone else wearing?

I have an older Joe Rocket Speedmaster that I got off craigslist for $120.


I don't wear it much anymore, because I can't wear a backpack with it due to an obnoxiously large speed hump. It has largely been replaced by a Montana jacket from British Motorcycle Gear, which looks good on and off the bike.




Both jackets have full leather construction, zip into my overpants, have adequate ventilation, zip-out liners, and a full complement of CE rated elbow, shoulder, and back armor.

That Montana Jacket is SWEET!  And Fraze, I've got some JR GPX 2.0s gloves that would match either of those jackets really well!  If you're ever looking for a set, hit me up.  Lol.

Indeed. It was also as much as some members have paid for their bikes ($500). Still cheaper than the REV'IT Hawk that I was going to get before I found the Montana.

got pretty much a full Cortech set. Latigo jacket, pants, and boots (which aren't in this picture):

Yep, that was more than I paid for my bike.


My primary jacket:

[gsJack]

Cortech RCX jacket new this fall replaces 10 year old red/black JR Atomic that was more faded than worn.  I'm keeping my JR Phoenix mesh for very hot days.



Recently purchased IS-33 helment is Anthracite, a bit darker than all my previous silver ones to match the new jacket.

Me too; the bike was free. lol It was hard to find a full leather jacket that had classic styling and a full armor package.

Bought this for $80 on a clearance rack. Bright colors increase visibility but it's hot in the summer and I'm not impressed with the build quality. Glad I didn't pay retail.



This is for riding in the summer.

For my weekday commute I use a DriRider Climate Control 2 Jacket - has removable rain line and winter liner. Elbow and shoulder armor, front and back padding, adjustable arm and waste settings, two external and one internal pocket.



For weekend riding I use the Ricondi Road Spec jacket - full armor in elbows and shoulders, back too. Leather is perforated and has some elasticized bits near the shoulder. Can be zippered into pants too. And has removable winter lining

Mister, I like this second jacket you have...How is it in warm weather?  Thats something I struggled with last season, in the summer where I live its regularly ~25 degrees during the day.  The new Jacket I bought has a good amount of air vents but I was curious;  Does that perforated leather allow for better air flow?

Everyone thinks my Scorpion jacket is really cool!

I'm not a huge fan of the print on the back, but I love the colors and the cut.  Great looking jacket!

Oh hell yeah. Guys I ride with have normal leather and they swelter between stops. I can feel the air flowing through. Not as much as the mesh, but enough to keep me cool as the temps his 32 with 60% humidity in the day. Remember, this is for weekend riding. Starts getting warm sitting at traffic lights in the suburbs.

I wear this one most often, I got it on ebay for $20 brand new. Couldn't pass it up but it turned out to be a great jacket. The low collar is nice because I can wear it with a hooded sweatshirt, but unfortunately it lets a bit of cold air down the neck when it gets chilly. Cyclegear kills me with their clearance rack too, it seems like every time I go there I come home with another jacket. I've got 2 in my closet I've never even worn haha.

Well here is what I am wearing now. Got it from a member on here for $35 CHA CHING!
Blue of course.

This was my first jacket breathes good in summer and with all the liners pretty warm

From the boys here for my b-day. When it is OMG hot I can take of the sleeves but takes away safety.

This one is for the 100 degree days with 98% humidity. Squishes the boobies though.
