What Are Mesh Motorcycle Jackets?
Mesh motorcycle jackets are riding jackets built primarily from mesh fabric, often paired with Kevlar panels for added abrasion resistance in high-impact zones like the shoulders, elbows, and back. The open mesh construction allows air to pass through the jacket, which makes it a practical choice for riders in warmer climates or during summer months when a full leather jacket can feel too heavy and hot.
This collection sits alongside the brand's broader range of motorcycle and leather jackets, offering an alternative for riders who prioritize breathability without giving up structured protection. They're a practical option for daily commuting, longer rides, or anyone who rides through warmer seasons regularly.
The History Behind Mesh Motorcycle Jackets
Mesh motorcycle jackets developed as riders needed alternatives to heavy leather gear for hot-weather riding. As synthetic fabrics and materials like Kevlar became more widely used in protective gear, manufacturers began combining ballistic mesh with reinforced panels to create jackets that offered airflow without sacrificing too much protection.
Kevlar itself was developed for industrial and protective applications due to its strength relative to its weight, and it was later adopted into motorcycle gear as a way to add abrasion resistance to lighter fabrics like mesh. This combination has since become a standard approach for warm-weather riding jackets.

Also Known As: Mesh Motorcycle Jackets
Riders searching for this style often use a few related terms, including mesh riding jackets, Kevlar motorcycle jackets, summer motorcycle jackets, and vented motorcycle jackets. These terms generally point to the same core idea: a riding jacket built with breathable mesh fabric and reinforced panels for warmer conditions, rather than a traditional full-leather build. While related, these terms can refer to slightly different constructions depending on the specific jacket.
Choosing the Right Fit for Your Mesh Motorcycle Jacket
A good fit matters for both comfort and protection when riding. Measure your chest, shoulders, and arm length before ordering, and consider a slightly more fitted cut since a loose mesh jacket can shift out of place while riding. If you plan to wear body armor or layers underneath, factor that into your sizing. Always check the size chart on the product page, and consider the custom-made option if you need a more precise fit than standard sizing offers.
How to Style Mesh Motorcycle Jackets for Different Occasions
- Daily Commuting: Pair with jeans and riding boots for a practical, breathable option on warmer commutes.
- Long-Distance Rides: Layer a moisture-wicking base layer underneath for added comfort on extended trips.
- Casual Off-the-Bike Wear: Style with a plain t-shirt and jeans for a look that carries over easily once you're off the road.
- Warm-Weather Touring: Combine with lightweight riding gloves and breathable pants to stay comfortable in higher temperatures.
- Layered Protection: Wear over a base layer with additional armor inserts if your riding conditions call for extra protection.
Mesh and Kevlar vs Traditional Leather
Mesh and Kevlar construction offers better airflow than traditional leather, making it a more comfortable option in hot weather or for long rides in warmer climates. Leather generally offers more consistent abrasion resistance across the entire jacket and a more classic look, while mesh jackets rely on strategically placed Kevlar panels to reinforce specific areas rather than the whole garment. Mesh jackets also tend to be lighter and easier to pack, while leather requires more specific care and conditioning over time. Neither option is universally better, and the right choice depends on your riding conditions and priorities.

How to Care for Your Mesh Motorcycle Jacket
- Check the specific care label on your jacket, since mesh and Kevlar panels may have different care instructions than leather.
- Spot-clean mesh fabric with a mild detergent and a soft cloth rather than machine washing, unless the care label states otherwise.
- Allow the jacket to air-dry fully before storing it, especially after riding in wet conditions.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can weaken synthetic fibers over time.
- Check zippers, seams, and Kevlar panel stitching periodically to make sure the reinforced areas remain intact.
- Store the jacket in a cool, dry place rather than folding it tightly for long periods.
