Ladies jacket
« on: March 02, 2024, 12:52:32 PM »
What brand jackets do people recommend for ladies.


I have a hoodie and a mens jacket that will fit Chris. The jacket is a little generous and doesnt have any vents but will do until we find something nicer.

With Chris being a bit hesitant getting on the bike, I think you need to ensure everything is smooth (quick & easy) getting the jacket and on and off, and when on, Chris is comfortable.  I'm not sure if there is any particular brand /style that has obviously got these qualities for Chris, unfortunately it'll likely be a case of trial & error.

Speaking of jackets, if I remember, I'll bring a couple of jackets for the buy, sell & swap thingy...  :X

Sue has a DriRider Air-Ride 5 Textile Jacket which is more of a Summer jacket but it does come with a removable waterproof & breathable liner.
She's found it perfectly fine for the mostly fine weather riding we do...

Not bad value for the price as well... https://www.easyr.com.au/dririder-air-ride-5-ladies-textile-jacket-black-pi
