I am debating on a jacket to get for summer because my current jacket is going to be really hot come summertime. Anyone have any good suggestions for a really good mesh jacket that allows a lot of air flo? Something that comes in blue and white and not a lot of black would be nice.

Im in the market for the exact same thing:lol: , except Im looking for one that is armored.

Here's one that I have come across in my search so far:

Tourmaster GX Air w/leather I might go with the silver or even the white one if I go with this jacket. dont know, still searching.

I want a armored one as well. I don't want a regular jacket.

Anyone know anything about the alpinestar t-stunt air flo jacket? Is it a lot of mesh or just mesh in certain areas? I want almost all of the material to be mesh, if it has a zip in zip out liner that is fine.

when i bought my JR suit it must have been on sale or something. the entire thing i picked up for 100 some odd dollars from my dealer. not bad, and it is my suit of choice, even over my A* leathers. it's so comfortable and wonderfully breathable. it's good for cold weather too with the zip out liner. it's one of my favorite purchases.

I've got that very jacket...see my TWF photos. it is alot of mesh, except the shoulder area. The construction is excelent & it does have a zipout liner. Its got two inside pockets aswell & one is zipped (perfect for those of us with a CHL:wink: ).

It came with a foam back padding, so I ordered the Astars back protector from MCsuperstore. only reason Im looking for a new one is that I got this a size too big (XXL), I wear an XL. I didnt know anything about MC when I first bought my gear, so when it tried on the XL i was like this feels tight so i went with one that fit too comfortably :bonk: :lol:

Heres another possiblity I jus sawJR Reactor 2

Everybody needs to make sure that they don't confuse a Textile with a meshy!

A meshy you can see thru... it looks like fish netting!

I wear a JR meshy (Reactor, I believe) with perforated leather sleeves for summer riding. I also have a JR, all meshy but I prefer the mesh/leather combination. I wear JR textile during the cooler months but will upgrade to a leather this season. Check newenough.com as they always have great deals in their closeouts.

I've got the Joe Rocket Phoenix mesh for summer. Tremendous air flow...its like wearing nothing at all.

My bro bought it brand new for 160 or something...I bought it off him less than a year later for $30 :yikes: Yeah baby.
:withstupi You dang near don't feel like you are wearing a jacket with all the air flow!! :dthumb:

The Speedrag meshy is awesome as well!

I just got the J.R. UFO ! Seems to be decent for the price...little flashy for my taste but it has the lighter silver colors you'd want for summer...
