I have had it for about a year now and I love it. I do sweat in it when the temps get into the 80's. But if you are riding you stay cool. And it offers a little more protection compared to the one you linked. I rode with it year round and just wore a hoodie and thermal underwear underneath it in the winter.
I even went down wearing it at like 40+mph. Was only on the pavement for a few split seconds then I went flying into grass. But walked away with no bruises on my upper body. So I believe the CE armor worked well. And the jacket held up. It was just covered in dirt. But nothing ripped.
Basically what I am saying is, I have nothing bad to say about the jacket. I would just spend a little more money on the Air Demon just for the protection. It has leather in high impact areas; maybe not the highest quality leather but it beats textile.  |
Thanks for your input. The one you wear does look like it would hold up better due to it being a hybrid leather/ textile jacket.
