Forcefield are Body Armour specialists that create impact protection and high-performance clothing systems. The Body Armour Sports Jacket is an armoured layer for motorcycling whether that’s road, touring or commuting, and comes in either the CE1 or CE2 version. The difference between the two is the thickness of the armour built into the jacket - the CE1 is 8mm thick whilst the CE2 is 12mm.
The Sport Jacket is best suited as a base that is worn underneath a motorcycle outer jacket - although it is packed with protective armour, it is surprisingly lightweight and features high performance compression materials. The Sport Jacket is easy to get in and out of quickly thanks to the full-length centre zip, and once on, the jacket hugs the body without becoming restrictive. The Sport Jacket 1 has CE1 shoulder and elbow armour, whilst the Sport Jacket 2 has CE2 shoulder and elbow armour as well as back protection fitted as standard. This helps to protect the upper body to a higher level than armour fitted into jackets as standard, and it is more comfortable. It is suitable for both on and off the road use - the material used is light and thin, which not only ensures a high level of flexibility but helps the skin to breath and the hot air to escape the jacket.
The Sport Jacket features Forcefields DRI-M Technology (Dynamic, Reactive, Intelligent Material), dynamic because it has the ability to move with the body and mould to the wearers body shape. The reactive title refers to the mass energy absorbing properties in the event of a collision, whilst the intelligent material relates to the breathable heat-activated properties it possesses. The Repeat Performance Technology ensures that the jacket can be used time and time again without a reduction in protection, and the jacket is also anti-bacterial, wicking, thermal, anti UV and machine washable. Both the CE1 and CE2 are high quality, high performing body armour, that are flexible, breathable and comfortable to wear even during extended sessions on the bike. RRP £129.99
