Held Woodland riding shirt in grey / black Product Information
It’s probably true to say that Rokker is the brand that has made the riding shirt cool; and they do make some great shirts, but actually we think Held’s Woodland shirts are technically superior. Rokker’s shirts are made of flannel, but are lined with a UHMWPE fabric. Held’s shirts, by contrast, are single layer, and made from a fabric known as Armalith; ironically, the material used by Rokker for its jeans. As a result, Held’s shirts are lighter, thinner, and more breathable. The Rokker shirts may be better on cooler days, but we prefer the idea of a lighter shirt that you can layer up beneath, as requigrey.
We might concede that Rokker is the cooler brand, but the truth is that, on a technical and functional level Held’s shirts are better than Rokker’s!

Steve C: Top Gear
I bought this to enable a more comfortable ride in the summer heat, and wore it for riding on my Harley. Since then I have worn it under my Schott Perfecto jacket, which has no armour, but plenty of room in the arms for a shirt such as this. It all works very well. The garment is very well made. The fit across the chest is perfect but a bit baggy around the waist. The price you pay for still having a bit of a V to your shape. The price is on the high side, but what price can you place on safety. Top gear.
