Works great in the heat and it's comfortable.
I bought this armor shirt/jacket in white, size M. It fits really well (38" chest, 160lbs) and will stretch a bit if needed. I bought white because I live in Arizona and need it to reflect as much sunlight as possible. My only negative, if you want to call it that is that the back pad is quite thick and it can make your back sweat more than it really should. Maybe that's just a personal thing. The pictures make it look like the padding is bright green, but it's not. You don't really see the color of the padding through the outer material.The armor padding is really good and stays in place well. It really feels like it would be great protection in and upset, but I hope I never have to find out! This jacket breaths very well and wicks away sweat making it quite cool as long as you're moving. So far, I've ridden in 95 degree heat with it and been pleasantly surprised!It fits well enough that in cooler weather you could put a regular wind breaker or other jacket on top of it without any discomfort.If I had to do it again, I might consider paying the extra $10 for the yellow/green, as that color usually reflects more heat. When I bought it, I didn't think the extra cost would be worth it, but now I would consider it.This shirt seems fairly expensive, but it works so well I would buy it again if I had to. Also, if you click on the link to the Wicked Stock store, you'll see that they sell pants made out of the same fabric with similar armor that you could wear over shorts. I might consider these in the future depending on how hot my jeans get!If you're looking for light weight, cool protection, you can't go wrong with this shirt!

Love it! So cool and comfy on hot days!
This shirt is absolutely amazing. The colors are a little off, so i went with white. I wanted the green one but it's more yellow than green, irrelevant I know. Anyway this is a great value, it's so lightweight and get so much airflow it makes those hot day rides way more tolerable! It's not as restrictive as heavier gear but has the same ce rated protection. So you can move around alot better, stay alot cooler, while also being protected. Can wear a shirt under it, over it, or just wear this by itself. I would get a size thats tight on you so the armor stays where it's supposed to. Just got the matching pants (which you want to order a size bigger). I'm liking this brand.

Almost perfect
It's light, breathable and form fitting. I wear a leather vest over it and a tshirt under so I can strip to the tshirt when I get to my destination.The elbow and shoulder armor in it is almost like a rubber material. A bit harder than the cheap foam most cheap jackets come with. I was really surpised by that. It feels substantial. The back is foam though it isn't plain either. It has fabric over it even if you remove it and it has extra thickness down the middle, as if to add extra protection to the spine; very thoughtful and extra step they took and I appreciate it.For me it'd be perfect if it had some anti-abrasive fabric over the armor areas Also some forearm straps that connect to the anti-abrasive fabric at the elbow/forearms ;) would be nice to keep the elbow armor in place if one ever goes down.Just riding, the shoulder and elbow armor stay in place perfect for me. As long as the stretch fabric lasts, this is a great setup for me during the 90°+ temps.Do be aware that if you have a gut, it'd highlight it unless you wear something over your torso.For reference to anyone reading this, I'm 6'1" and 190 pounds with 37-42" chest (depending on how deep I breathe lol) The medium fits me perfect. I chose based on 40" chest as that was my resting measurement. This has give so it will stretch and move with you.I'm noticing a lot less riding fatigue with this. I'm not fighting tight fabric to move at joints, and I'm experiencing a lot less wind resistance with this.I know it doesn't offer the protection of a jacket due to not having any anti-abrasives but it is a happy-medium between full jacket and just a plain shirt.

Runs small.
Very comfortable and light riding shirt. VERY breathable. Comes with shoulder, elbow and back pad. It does run very small, I normally wear an XL and the 2XL of this shirt runs tight. It won't hold up to a highway slide, but would probably provide decent protection under 30 mph. but all in all a great shirt.

Perfect for its purpose
I have the large and my girlfriend has the small. They're actually perfect for slow speed motorcycle drills. I've fallen several times and hit my elbows and I didn't even feel it. They're a great substitute for a full motocross protective vest, although you don't get any chest protection. My gf wore a roost protector over it and felt great! The elbows, shoulders and back protectors were snug and well placed. And the airflow is wonderful. Great for summer. And honestly great for winter if you want to put another jacket over it.I let my friend borrow my gf's shirt and she fell in love. She'll be getting one soon.
