With summer temperatures in the UK reaching record levels, a good quality mesh riding jacket is becoming essential for British bikers.
Made to make motorcycling in Mediterranean temperatures a breeze, the LS2 Alba has extra large Diamond Mesh Fabric panels covering the entire front and back of the torso and on each arm, for maximum airflow.
A-rated to the CE EN17092 standard, the Alba’s mesh sections are made from a tough, 600D 92T Fabric, and critical zones are covered with an extra Ripstop layer, for abrasion resistance.
It comes with removable CE Level 1 ‘Soft Bounce’ shoulder and elbow armour protectors fitted as standard; the elbow protectors are adjustable to two positions. There’s also the option to fit an LS2 CE Level 2 back protector (purchased separately).
Plenty of adjustment – at the waist, on each arm, and zipped cuffs too – allows fine-tuning of the fit and the use of a base layer if the temperature drops. The Alba also has a short connection zip for attaching to trousers.
Plus, there are three zipped pockets on the outside and two internal ones too; one of which is a dry pocket, designed to hold a smartphone.
The Alba is available in Black or Dark Grey, with subtle red highlights and stitching, in sizes S-5XL retailing at just £119.99 including VAT.
