Ok lads and lassies can someone recommend a nice airy casual jacket for the fine weather. The jacket I have is cooking me even with the liner removed.
Budget about €100 .Thanks.

What do you mean by casual? That would mean normal clothes to me.

Sorry . I mean not leather, textile. Would this do the job?

I have Armour out of another jacket. Is this pretty much universal? My chest measurement is 45" my bellys a bit bigger.would a 46" be ok? or should I go to a 48"?

No protectors in that, its just a light textile jacket.

is your plan to put protectors in it ? if not all that jacket is good for is scuff protection.

Roger products CE certified.
Looking at them they won't fit I'm afraid.:(

I appreciate this is well above budget but can be found much cheaper on ebay. This is a 4 seasons jacket I wear year round, cool in the summer and warm in winter. Means you only need one jacket.

Its a fine jacket for sure. I might revisit that later on. Would it be fairly cool on a day like this/

Yes, with the liners out it's perfect for today. That said, I wore leathers today for the first time this year.

Thought it was just me! Heated seat on last week, but in fairness I've got t-shirt on under the jacket today, and all the vents and collar open.
