Motorcycle jackets are just as important as motorcycle helmets. Motorcycle jackets are made to protect your chest, stomach, neck and most importantly your spine. Most motorcycle jackets have body armor made of Kevlar (same material used in bullet proof vest) to protect from skidding and from impact. The body armor are usually located on the elbows, spine, shoulders and chest. It is really important to have these armor in case of sliding after a fall. Most of the materials used are made to be skid proof, meaning the material will not tear if your skidding for a long period of time. Leather motorcycle jackets are a good bet. The leather is like have a barrier between your skin and the harsh concrete.

Motorcycle experts suggest that a motorcycle rider should have many motorcycle jackets to choose from depending on whether and location. It is highly recommended that leather jackets with the correct armor is worn on freeways or areas that require high speeds. A well ventilated jacket is also a good option, keeping you cooled and less fatigue. That way you can concentrate more on the road than on the weather. Perforated jackets is probably one of the popular choices for summer riding. Although winter riding is not recommended, experts suggest that motorcycle riders wear heavy weight jacket either made of leather or Ballistic. Heavy jackets will keep you warm and at the same time protect you in case of an accident.
