Pros and Cons of Motorcycle Apparel

[98valk]

t-shirt and shorts and tennis shoes in hot summer days, but wear a helmet 99% of the time.

IN cooler weather under 80,  I do wear my mesh armored cycle jacket as well and gloves of some sort with pants of some sort of course. 

I side on the area of comfort over protection.  It will haunt me some day if I ever go down am sure.

with the correct mesh gear u will be cooler than riding with nothing like u said.
it will keep the direct sun off of you keeping u cooler.

Thanks for the link Pappy!  I am going to try these.  Have been looking for something like these instead of the expensive under Armour branded stuff.
