Reflective Yellow Motorcycle Vest | High Visibility Safety Neon by Yoshimura

Reflective Yellow Motorcycle Vest | High Visibility Safety Neon by Yoshimura

Every now and then, when I need to dodge out of the way of a motorist talking on the phone, reading directions, eating, or all three at the same time, I wonder if I bear some responsibility for their obliviousness. Perhaps a really loud outfit would have prevented my nimble show ...




AGV Armored Gloves | Vented Silicone Gel Cool Tex

AGV Armored Gloves | Vented Silicone Gel Cool Tex

Snow is coming. You can smell it in the air. This morning I stepped out into my driveway to find a thin frost over everything. It feels sterile and unwelcoming. It is also a harbinger of much time to be spent in a car. Enough lamentation -- I'm not off the ...

Scorpion Womens Jacket, Armored Black | Reflective Textile Mesh, Hat Trick

August went out with a heat wave here, but now that September has arrived, it's been cool. This is not the best weather for me to be thinking about a mesh textile jacket, but last month, stuck in traffic with the heat beating down on me, I gave some serious consideration ...

AGV Sport Evolution Rally Jacket | Black Textile Vest Mesh w/ Quilted Liner

Anyone who knows me knows that I like versatility. I'm terrible at making the big decisions because I always want to make the "right" one. Any product that can assure me it will accommodate me during a sudden snowstorm in a desert has my vote. Maybe the AGV Sport Evolution/Rally ...

Icon Merc | Women’s Textile Jacket | Black White 28220004

If you're keen on Icon quality, but not so keen on Icon prices, they feel your pain. Icon makes a great jacket and they're worth the cost, but they're not so despotic as to leave those of us with light wallets light on protection.

Icon's Merc women's textile is one of their cheapest riding jackets. ...

Black Waterproof Textile Jacket | Tour Master Saber Series 2

The Tour Master Saber Series 2 jacket is prepared for anything. The design makes this a great riding jacket for rain, shine, cold, hot, day, or night riding. My first response to any textile is to balk at the thought of replacing my leather, but I've had to spend time under ...

Mens Textile Riding Jacket | Tour Master Draft Air

Last week, I noticed something disconcerting. The seams on my riding jacket are beginning to fray. I'm sure I can stitch it back together, but I will not put my money on dime store thread when it does battle with pavement. It might be time to look for some more robust ...

Honda Racing Repsol Textile | Mens Pit Jacket Retro

I've always said that the key to cutting edge fashion is to wear something ugly as sin and still look good. I'm not saying that Honda's Repsol textile jacket is ugly; it's just not a modern style. This is the kind of jacket you pull out of your closet after ...




Tour Master Cortech LRX Air | Womens Motorcycle Textile Jacket

Tour Master Cortech LRX Air | Womens Motorcycle Textile Jacket

Last week was hot -- really, really hot. My leather jacket has great ventilation and I normally defend the leather to my lungs' end due to the superior abrasion protection. My vanity also lends me to suffer a little for that classic look, but last week made we wish I ...

Combine the cachet of Honda Goldwing with the hipness of Joe Rocket and what do you get? Joe Goldwing? OK, dumb question. What you get is this jacket!

Honda CBR Textile Jacket by Joe Rocket | Motorcycle Jacket

This is quite a versatile jacket. Start with the climate control -- it's got zippered vents on the sleeves and the back for maximum airflow. Additionally, it comes with a removable insulated liner for the vest area. This makes it a "three season" jacket, appropriate for all but the coldest weather.

Next, ...
