R-Tech Superlite Mesh Textile Jacket, Grey Black The Rtech Superlite mesh jacket is built for riders who refuse to cook in their gear. It's a ventilated mesh jacket with CE-certified armor, a rider-specific back cut, and reflective detailing. It works for warm-weather commuting, summer touring, and everyday sport riding. Hot weather and motorcycle gear don't have to fight each other. The Superlite's large mesh panels on the front, arms, and back pull constant airflow through the jacket. CE-certified shoulder, elbow, and back armor comes fitted as standard. You don't need to buy protection separately. The back is cut longer in the back. It stays in place when you're leaned forward in a riding position. Reflective arm panels keep you visible to other road users after dark. For daily commuters: all-day ventilation with certified armor included. For summer touring riders: lightweight protection that won't tire you out on long routes. For urban sport riders: flexible mesh construction that flexes naturally with your movement. TL;DR: A CE-armored mesh jacket built for warm climates, with a longer back cut, three-point armor, and reflective detailing for low-light visibility. What Makes the Rtech Superlite a Smart Buy for Summer Riding? The K-204 Mesh Outer Shell (290-310 GSM) covers the front chest, sleeves, and back panel. Air moves through freely and you feel the difference immediately. The armor is already in. Shoulder and elbow protectors are CE Level 1, and the back protector is CE Level 2. Materials: Built for Airflow and Durability K-204 Mesh Outer Shell (290-310 GSM): The primary shell material. It drives maximum ventilation while holding its structure through regular use. Cordura Polyester 300D WR: Reinforces the high-wear areas. It resists abrasion and handles water better than standard polyester. Taslan Polyester 330D PU WR: Covers structural panels where durability matters without adding weight. Lycra Polyester: Used in stretch zones so the jacket moves naturally with your body. Reflector Cotton: Placed on the arm panels to push light back at night and improve your visibility to traffic. Pockets and Storage There's one waist pocket on the left side. It's easy to reach on or off the bike and fits documents, a phone, or a card holder without a problem. Lining The inner lining is lightweight Taffeta Polyester. It's breathable and non-clingy, and it manages moisture during warm-weather rides. Foam padding (4mm density) adds structure and a layer of comfort in key areas. Ergonomics and Adjustability The full-frontal YKK zipper closes the jacket cleanly and holds firm at speed. The waist Velcro closure lets you tighten or loosen the fit to your preference. Cuffs close with both a zipper and Velcro so there's no gap at the wrist. The longer back hem is a practical detail. It doesn't ride up or gap when you're leaning over the bars.

The included armor is CE certified. Shoulder and elbow protectors meet EN1621-1:2012 Level 1, and the back protector meets Level 2. The jacket as a complete garment isn't CE certified. What type of riding is this jacket best suited for? It's best for warm-weather commuting, summer touring, and city riding. The mesh construction is purpose-built for hot, dry conditions where airflow is the priority. Does the Rtech Superlite include a back protector? Yes. A Level 2 CE-certified back protector is fitted as standard. There's no need to source one separately. Is this jacket available for larger riders? It comes in sizes from S to 4XL. The longer back cut also helps taller riders maintain coverage when they're leaned forward on the bike. Can you wear the Rtech Superlite in the rain? It's not a waterproof jacket. The mesh design is built for warm, dry riding conditions. A separate waterproof layer worn over it would handle wet weather if needed.
