Mesh jackets - what do you love?

[dannyv]

From my understanding Falcone BMW in Indy has just become a Klim dealer and was waiting on their first shipment about this time last month. You might want to give them a shout and ask what they got in. I do know that in order to be a Klim dealer you have to buy a healthy amount of product $$$$ to get in with them.
I have a Firstgear vented jacket I bought from Adam's Motorsports in Greenwood, IN and my friend has the Klim Induction.

I could stop around Falcone, I'll be over that way next week. That visit could potentially cost me a lot more then the price of a coat though! (I am riding on old F650GS, waiting for bucks to get a S10!).

Rev’it have some very good and well priced mesh jackets, trousers and gloves in their catalogue.
I have been using their products for years to the fullest of satisfaction.
In no way I have any profit what so ever..

Mesh jackets are not popular where I live. It gets so hot your skin drys with mesh clothing. I wear full coverage jackets with vents open and a Fly Racing cooling vest for over 100 degree temps.

I have the Klim induction too, which replaced an 11 yr old TourMaster mesh. The Klim has adjustable elbow pads and all d30 armour. It is warmer and a bit stiffer than the TourMaster but not as heavy. I use the rain liner and thermal liner out ot the TourMaster which make it a multi season jacket. They don't zip in but it really doesn't matter. It is pricy but seems well worth the investment as my first Klim jacket.

I wear a Knox Urbane Pro which is pretty good. https://www.planet-knox.com/product/urbane-pro-shirt-mk2/


I have always sweated a lot and with the amount of humidity in this part of Asia it can be fricking irritating. I bought the Knox as it is a fitted jacket and I was working on the principle of it wicking away the sweat the same way a polyester shirt does. I "think" that it does when the bike is moving, but I'm not so sure when it is stationary. I am now considering getting the Klim Induction as the "bellows" effect of a looser jacket may be more comfortable. Knox are not available here, I wonder if Klim are?

Thanks for the heads up on the Klim.
