Spike101uk Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 This may have been brought up before but what do people wear or recommend to wear instead of a leather jacket on those scorching summer days we are promised, I do only mean for getting around town and not long trips, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ttaskmaster Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Vented leather Frank Thomas jacket, made with perforated panels facing oncoming airflow - Useless if it rains, but fantastic cooling. Leather trews, boots, gloves, lid. Might see about vented trews one day, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obriens65 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 It's good to know some things never change. I wear textile jacket and trousers all year, just take the linings out if it's hot. And boots n gloves of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy xs Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I got a summer textile jacket off eBay last year and wear all the time!
