What they do is choose scientifically and practically. Protection and comfort is a must as with motorcycle apparel like jackets. Both comfort and protection are needed.
Special attention is required in some areas. What we need to do is discuss them one by one.
Important materials. Motorcycle jacket could non-leather or leather. But the most famous material for jackets is leather. Widely used nowadays, especially in warm season, is mesh. Also used is a form of nylon with a scale going up approximately 1000 denier and this is called Dupont Cordura.
Air necessities Air circulation is necessary especially during summer where the heat of the sun can hurt the skin and can also result to a sweaty and uncomfortable ride. Jackets with ventilation zippers can be purchased by riders. These zippers are usually found under the armpits and other ventilation holes to allow air to circulate.
Suit integration should be applied to the jacket. At the back, a Velcro or zipper can provide comfort. Pockets can also be added - the more, the better.
Visibility. You also need to consider the ability of the jacket to be seen by pedestrians and fellow riders. When it comes to motorcycle accidents, the primary reason is lack of visibility. Failure to see another rider is a fatal flaw. To remedy this, riders must wear jackets with reflective materials or luminous colors. Using scotelite also results to a reflective jacket.
The importance of being waterproof. In riding, it's important to have a waterproof jacket. Riding knows no weather - be it a sunny or a rainy weather - riders are always on the go. They can't be stopped even by harsh weather. However, if a rider rides with a non-waterproof jacket, he will likely be having illness that can preclude him from further enjoying rides.
The rider's jacket should be kept waterproof to avoid feeling stinky, less confident, and dirty.
What is caveat emptor? There are materials that easily loose its power of being waterproof and buyers need to be wary of these.
Reflecting you as a person is your jacket so it should have style, protection, and comfort.
