Hi folks as the hot weather is with us at the moment I am finding my Hood armoured jeans are now too hot to wear off the bike. What would you guys recommend for hot conditions to keep cool but with a bit of protection in case of a spill? Any recommendations would be most welcome.

These is probably the best set of warm weather gear I've ever had --> http://www.rst-moto.com/rst-pro-seri...enture-ii-jean


More vents than you can shake a stick at....

Not too bad in the rain or cold, so a sort of three season set. The biggest problem is the internal/removable waterproof and thermal parts. But I use mine with some external waterproof gear so it works really well.

Also found a really nice pair of vented gloves from Held -> http://www.fc-moto.de/Held-Sambia-Touring-Glove

Thanks for the reply, looks a bit too specialist for me, I am looking more for pants that I can walk around in that look fairly normal nothing too garish but tough.

You need some plain black mesh pants. Check out the hein gericke airsteam pants in your nearest j&s.

The trouble with mx upper body armour is if you ride on the road, come off the bike and slide then it will fall apart as it is only designed for off road impacts not slides.

Not easy to get Hein Gericke gear in my neck of the woods, so I bought a pair of Airstream II trousers a month ago from Belgium. With the euro in the doldrums at the moment they worked out pretty cheap: �40 including delivery to the UK.

They are nicely put together, are cool to ride in, light weight and comfortable to wear as off the bike. Only drawback is they're black, which isn't the ideal colour to be wearing in bright sunshine!

I got a pair of non brand Kevlar lined cargo trousers from eBay. At around �30, they're cheap as chips. The lining seems ok and they've been cool enough on and off the bike. Thankfully, I've not tested their effectiveness in a crash just yet.
