You can still get a plenty nice jacket for a good bit less. Love me some Dainese - but $1k for a jacket is a bit mental. But you'll notice that the perforated areas correspond to areas that are less likely to see abrasion in a crash and higher risk areas are solid leather. Now would solid leather hold up better than perf? Probably. It takes a good bit more effort to get a whole jacket that certification.
This means the whole jacket - so areas of the jacket must all meet various abrasion resistance thresholds and the amour energy transmission limits. The jacket you linked to is CE Category II - 89/686/EEC Directive certified. You will die a miserable death of heat prostration in non perf stuff. I plan on starting to go to the track, I will eventually pick up a one piece, but I might use this two piece combo the first couple of times I go until I can afford the onesie.Īny advice from people that have dealt with this already would be very appreciated. I am worried about getting perforated gear and then just wearing under clothes during the winter to warm up, because the gear seems to be fairly form fitting and worried I wont be able to get anything on underneath it.ĭoes perforated gear protect as well as NON perf?

Excellent interior climate control is provided by generous perforation panels on the front and rear, while a full grain leather shell offers superior abrasion and tear resistance.
I live in NC and will be riding year round. The Alpinestars Missile Perforated Jacket For Tech Air Race is optimized to keep you looking and feeling ultra-cool and ultra-protected while cutting through traffic. I can just not seem to decide on Perforated or non perforated. I am looking at picking up Dainese Leather jacket and pants ( ) ( ) Was just hoping to find out once and for all from people that wear full leather which is better for year round riding? Stolen bikes belong in local subreddits.This means extremely hot weather will get my mesh/textile, everything else gets the perforated leather.īike is a Street Triple R and I ride aggressively and plan on some trackdays this year (making the jacket into a two-piece suit).Showing off Bikes or Gear?

For other jackets, there’s the usual small-medium-large styling system. That means that you will have jackets in sizes 38, 40, 42, and so on. For some jackets, they use the chest size measurement as the differentiator. I live in GA and try to ride year round barring ice, below 35-40 degrees Fahrenheit and avoid rain as much as possible (unless I get caught in it). Schott follows a slightly weird sizing system. How do these jackets fit compared to each other? It's between that jacket, the GP-R perforated jacket, or the Jaws perforated jacket. That being the case perforated leather should be great for most summer days and will serve you better in spring/autumn as well as offering better protection, then get a cheap meshy for the odd stinking hot day.

I've tried on the AlpineStars GP Plus R perforated jacket at a local Cycle Gear. I can fit my liner under the jacket to combat the cold/wind at this size. It feels a bit better in the riding position but bunches up a bit in the stomach area. A 56 is a bit looser across the back and shoulders with the sleeve at the wrist bone. I'm between a 54 (tight across the back and chest, sleeve ends just before the wrist bone, and would not be able to fit anything besides a shirt under it. I'm 6', 195-205 with a 43.5 inch chest and about 27 inch arm length. I'm about to purchase a leather jacket and stuck between 3 different ones at two different sizes. Showing off Bikes or Gear?
