Textile Motorcycle Jackets

Leather jackets are for riding in the summer. Wax cotton is more practical than leather in many respects, and can look very cool. But for any form of serious riding, it’s a textile motorcycle jacket that you’re going to need. In the last 20 years, the technology involved in motorcycle clothing has advanced greatly, and nowhere is this more apparent than in textile jackets. A textile jacket doesn’t absorb water like leather, so it is always going to be better in the wet. But a modern textile jacket will often come with features such as a waterproof membrane, a removable thermal-liner, anti-abrasion panelling, waterproof zips, ventilation openings and exhausts, heat reflective coatings, high-vis areas, and so on. It’s a complicated area, and you should seek advice before taking the plunge. If you ride every day, you might want a jacket with a laminated waterproof membrane rather than the drop-liner that appears in most jackets. A laminated jacket is particularly waterproof, and will never ‘wet-out', but laminated jackets can be rather stiff, and so not particularly comfortable to wear.

Verified customer reviews for Textile Motorcycle Jackets

Dainese ladies Carve Master 3 GTX jacket in black

Sue B: Style, Substance Comfort

The fabric, adjustable waist straps poppers on the biceps make this a super comfortable jacket that actually fits a female shape. There are vertical zips on the side seams to expand the hem of the jacket for extra comfort whilst sitting on the bike. I personally dont like the thermal neck liner because it is bulky, but removing this wearing a neck warmer still keeps you warm draft free. A really nice feature at the next is a Velcro panel to hold open the neck flap to circulate air during the hot weather. The vents pockets are positioned well, although the pulls on the zips to the storm pockets are a bit fiddly to use because they are so small and have no tags. Sara was excellent helping me choose the right jacket for my needs I would definitely try on the Daniese jacket before buying because the Italian sizing seems to be on the small side compared to other European brands.

Klim Marrakesh jacket in green

Gavin J: Marrakesh Jacket

Most comfortable bike jacket Ive ever had. Excellent service at Motolegends as always.

Klim Latitude jacket in blue

Mike S: Good choice

Took a 5 hour round trip to Motolegends to get sensible advice on which suit to buy. Had in mind Rukka or Klim. Budget of around 1500 quid. Chris and Sara were very helpful. Tried several Rukka jackets on but the fit wasnt great, just too short. The Latitude was perfect for me at 188cms tall. Just felt right when I put it on, plenty of vents and adjustability. Bought the trousers as well, only problems was that the knee armour was far too high in the pockets. Motolegends had the armour pocket moved and delivered at no extra cost took about a week. Only two downsides, the armour is level 1 and not as substantial as Rukkas. The jacket trouser connecting zip is short and a bit fiddly to zip up.
