Saw this one on SportsBikeShop YouTube videos and it seemed to tick all the boxes for a good summer jacket at a great price.
Has all the features, is a good size fit and is comfortable in use. Ideal first jacket.
Chose the understated black/black colour scheme and it looks good.

First jacket for me as I start biking at 49 years old. I followed other reviews and bought a size up which fits perfectly over base layers and fleeces, and the straps can then tighten the fit for summer rain.

Good looking, well made jacket. Fits well and true to size - bought large for 44" chest. Lots for scope for adjustment and decent pockets. Not tested in the rain yet but comfortable and warm.

Great all round jacket

This jacket strikes the perfect balance between style, comfort, protection, and most importantly, price.

The first thing I noticed was how comfortable it is. The fit is spot-on, with adjustable straps that allow for a snug, custom fit. The material feels durable yet flexible, making it easy to move around without feeling restricted.

It comes with CE-approved armor in the shoulders, elbows, and back, giving me peace of mind while riding. The textile material is tough and seems like it can withstand a lot of wear and tear.

The black and grey color scheme looks sleek and modern. I also appreciate the multiple pockets, which are great for storing essentials. The ventilation system is another big plus, keeping me cool during warmer rides.

Overall, the RST Alpha 5 is a fantastic investment for any rider. It offers excellent protection, comfort, and style at a reasonable price. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable and stylish motorcycle jacket.

New winter hi vis jacket
12 November 2024 by Andrew D
Really comfortable and durable jacket with good hi vis markings which is great for Autumn and dark nights. Fits really well with velcro straps to adjust the fit and cannot recommend this jacket enough. Feels really well made and doesn't feel restricted like other ones I had tried on

Really happy with the quality. Warm, comfortable, no frills, good value jacket.
Does everything a higher priced product would do.
I usually wear a leather jacket all year round but was getting tired of getting to work cold and wet. £99 problem solved.
