I like Dainese gear. It's not cheap, and I mean that in both implications of the word. Dainese leather gear often has a price that puts it out of the reach of the budget-constrained rider. However, Dainese is becoming a much bigger player in the textile market, and textile gear is more affordable than traditional leather. The Dainese Zentex Textile Jacket is a great example of a jacket built to Dainese quality standards, yet with a price that puts it in reach of a much larger customer base.
The jacket is a combination of heavy mesh in the body and a tough textile in the arms and upper yoke. Obviously, it is a warm weather jacket. It includes Dainese armor in the arms and shoulders, but back protection is not included. It comes in Euro sizes 48 to 60. The rule of thumb is to subtract 10 from the Euro size to approximate the US size. Traditionally, Dainese sizing runs small, but buyers report that this model runs true to size.
The jacket includes reflective accents for nighttime visibility. It also features a connection system for mating it with Dainese pants. The Dainese Zentex Textile Jacket is a good way to get a taste of the Italian company's quality riding gear at a reasonable price.
