Fieldsheer Jacket Review

Scooter Nut — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 04:10:18 +0000

December, 2010 – By Jordana Whyte Let me just set the tone right away: I am a freeze-baby. If you’re not familiar with this particular colloquialism, it means that I pretty much cold all the time. I spend my winters under a down comforter cloaked in alternating layers of wool and fleece. My friends mock me for toting jackets to protect against overzealous air conditioning in the summer. To this end, I am not one of those die-hard riders that […]

FirstGear Women’s Contour Mesh Jacket

Scooter Nut — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 04:06:01 +0000

I probably have one of the smallest windows of temperature comfort of anyone I know, and riding my scooter is no exception. This was my (lame) excuse for riding without an armored jacket in the warmer months. The thought of putting on a heavy, sweat-inducing jacket when it is 90 and humid was enough for me to risk my skin, elbows and shoulders, and to reduce my visibility at night. Then I was given the woman-specific Firstgear Contour Mesh jacket […]

Review of the TourMaster Series 2 FLEX Textile Riding Jacket

Scooter Nut — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 04:01:24 +0000

September, 2012 ATGATT, All The Gear All The Time. It’s something I know I should follow and yet often fail at. I do well (very well) with the helmet and gloves. I’m pretty good with the jacket. It’s the protective pants and boots that “fail” me most of the time. I admit that I too often ride in jeans and regular shoes. That being said, a good do-everything jacket is always of interest to me. Here in Minnesota we have […]

GoGo Gear Trench Jacket Review

Scooter Nut — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 03:39:45 +0000

August, 2010 – By Jordana Whyte Jordana was kind enough to review this jacket at my request. Jordana’s connection to JustGottaScoot.com started a couple of years ago when she purchased the Genuine Buddy St. Tropez scooter that I reviewed. She has worn a helmet since she started riding, but I have often pestered her about NOT wearing a protective jacket. Her response involved the lack of protective gear that was designed for women and that looked good. Hopefully GoGo will […]

Scorpion Jacket Review

Jahid Hashan — Sun, 20 Dec 2020 15:57:13 +0000

February, 2011 – By Jordana Whyte Another brutal winter month means another multi-season riding jacket review for those of you who aren’t satisfied with Jack Frost nipping at your nose and prefer he gnaw it clear off whilst riding your scooter through the elements. While nothing can quite convince me to keep rolling my Buddy out in anything below, say, 45 degrees on a regular basis I did sacrifice the feeling in my extremities to assess the ability of Scorpion’s […]

Three Of The Hottest Motorcycle Jackets On The Market

TheGoomba — Sat, 22 Apr 2017 02:42:14 +0000

Hottest Motorcycle Jackets On The Market Let’s face it. The motorcycle jacket is stitched into the fabric of American pop culture. Going beyond Easy Rider or Marlon Brando in The Wild Ones, the form has become a staple in fashion, cinema and the American way of life. But getting all the way back to its roots and function as protective clothing for riders gives the jacket dual functionality. Fast-forward to today and we see nothing has changed. The jacket is […]

SHIFT Racing Streetfighter Jacket Review

Motorcycle Guy — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 13:29:55 +0000

SHIFT Racing Streetfighter Jacket Review I recently got the opportunity to test Shift’s Streetfighter jacket. It is a bit different than most jackets out in the market since it uses both textile material and leather to combine the best of both worlds. Leather and Textile I’ve worn my fair share of full textile jackets and full leather jackets in the past. My preference leans towards the leather since I feel it is a bit more protective than most textile outfits, […]

Olympia Moto Sports MJ410 Jacket Review

Motorcycle Guy — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 03:25:15 +0000

Olympia Moto Sports MJ410 Jacket Review The piece of gear I received for testing was the Moto Sports MJ410 Jacket. The first things I noticed when I took it out of the box were, “Wow this seems like a good quality jacket,” quickly followed by, “Wow, this is… bright!” Constructed in rugged Dupont Cordura® with ballistic nylon mesh panels, this jacket offers maximum airflow with superior abrasion resistance. Can one motorcycle jacket really do it all? Well, now it can. Heat, wind, […]

Xelement BXU6050 Mens Black Armored Leather Motorcycle Jacket Review The following a a Motorcycle jacket review by the BBM user Sangria7. I am very new to the motorcycle riding community, and as a new rider it is very important for me to have good riding gear.

USER REVIEW: Olympia Moto Sports MJ222 Motorcycle Jacket

Motorcycle Guy — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 23:36:47 +0000

Olympia Moto Sports MJ222 Motorcycle Jacket Review USER REVIEW BY TWOWHEELS I was looking for a jacket that would provide good protection and be comfortable from 80F down to 32F and hopefully waterproof. From this criteria I decided to look at 3/4 length jackets. The 3/4 length has a slight advantage in the colder weather or rain as it is less drafty and keeps the rain out of your pants. I ended up narrowing my search to the Joe Rocket […]

Firstgear Mesh-Tex Motorcycle Jacket Review

Motorcycle Guy — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 22:43:16 +0000

Firstgear Mesh-Tex Motorcycle Jacket Review When I first got into riding it was summertime in California, and like most Californian summers it was VERY HOT! I couldn’t picture being cooped up in a leather jacket for the next few months, the thought just seemed way too suffocating. My riding mentor at the time recommended getting some sort of mesh type of motorcycle gear, and the Firstgear Mesh Tex jacket is what I settled on. Overall, this is a pretty […]
