Kevlar hoodie??

I have picked up one of these for the season, only rode in it once, comfortable, could use longer arms for me but I usually buy tall fit
 
If you fall how are you supposed to make sure you land on the kevlar back and not the cotton front?

The second one doesn't mention Kevlar at all, but cotton poly blend instead.
 
very true my friend baggsy, it seems there's no real hoodie out there that offers solid protection
 
What's the point of the Hoddie?
When it rains you can pull the hoodie over your helmet?
At 200kph, does it catch enough wind to set you back to the ground like a parachute?

Looks like you're modelling it. Have you crashed one yet?

Just make sure you enter Bullet-Time mode before you hit the ground....if Neo and Max Payne can do it why can't you?

Also seems to work better if riding a Gixxer in shorts, so YMMV.
 
Occasionally I'll wear my Icon armour vest and elbow-forearm guards under a zip up hoodie. Good chest back and arm protection. I just need to sort out something other than my speedo for the bottom half...

I've seen full kevlar hoodies online before.

That's not me, but I do wear their kevlar jeans, they seemed nice this weekend at the bike course. Haven't crash tested anything though. They do feel way more durable then my normal spandex filled jeans.

Also they are a local GTA couple that own and run the Rock R T's line.
 
I can't see @Amazon s sig on Tapatalk. Can someone post the link, please? Google came up with nothing for "rock r t".

Thanks @Iceman ☺
I've seen this stuff at the shows. Didn't realize that was the name. Their pants seem reasonably priced.

I don't get it, why do you want to wear a jacket with a hood?

Like you're secretly trying to fit in with your squid buddies without actually wearing a T-shirt?
