Folks,
I am off to Norway & Sweden in July and then to Spain & Morocco in October.
I have been looking at jackets suitable for use in hot climates.
A search of the stalls at the BMF Rally on Saturday produced four candidates. All have mesh panels front & back, yet still have elbow, shoulder & back armour (actually, the RTS didn't have back armour).
The one I like best is the 'Cool' mesh/Airtex jacket from JTS clothing, it comes with a separate waterproof lining.
Others were RST, Joe Rocket & Hunter (claimed to be waterproof - yet it looked as though midges could fly through it !).
Has anyone used this sort of jacket, and if so - are there any pitfalls ?
Thanks.
Bob.
