Title: alpine stars sniper jacket

i originally purchased this jacket for a lightweight summer (read HOT) jacket, something light, breathable and so on and so fourth

overall, its a nice jacket, well constructed, sufficient padding/armor, its got a camo scheme with solid sections, if you like that kind of thing

i got a good deal on it as it was a closeout, but it was a humid 80+F out and has no apparent ventilation at any speeds, you just need to wear your cuffs loose

i should have gotten the air-flow jacket, but live and learn right?

when i purchased this jacket, i was under the impression that since it was lightweight, that it would be good for hot riding, its not, you need to get the air-flow version

but overall its a nice jacket, i like it and will most likely use it on milder days

The Rev-Itt "Air" jacket is on point with ventilation.
