Instead of a jacket...
 

Well it gets into the triple digits here in Oklahoma and it is really hard to rock a jacket at those kinda of temperature. So i have been looking at alternatives and was wondering is anyone had any experience with Fox Armor.

I want to use it instead of my jacket during the summer for commuting back and forth from work.

looks cool /good price but would it be any cooler than a perforated mesh or textile????

you could also:squid: it out naw joking

It's been said before I'd rather wipe sweat than blood just get a camelpack instead

If you go with that I wish you luck man! IMHO I'd just go with a mesh jacket! But something is always better than nothing!

also it's coming from hong kong make sure you get the correct size if you get it but most of our ishh is made in china or some foreign country nway

Good Luck

Believe me guys i am very concern about safety especially since i ride a 07 GSXR 1000 and that is the reason i came to the forum to get more constructive input in order to make an informed decision.

Its just that when you get stuck in traffic at 5 pm and it's a 102 degrees every little bit of cooling make a difference.

Both of them look like some good quality pieces for what they are. I have never had eszpererince with ehter but if you do it, write a review. I think Icon or A-stars has a piece that is kinda the same on motorcycle-superstore.

I have a mesh JR jacket.
Wearing that is cooler than wearing just a tshirt.

go faster

Truth.

I've seen guys wearing rigs like that... I dunno though, I'd be worried about it sliding around if I went down... At least with a jacket if the armor slides, you still have some protection...

as far as protection goes, i wouldnt trust that shit. plus you'd look like the fucking road warrior and somebody might throw a spear through your chest.
