BYKR Motorcycle Hoodie for Men & Women Biker Motorcycle Jackets Breathable Motorbike Riding Sweatshirt All Weather CE Armored

I don’t usually write reviews. Even less often a good one. But this sweatshirt for $40 is an absolute steal. I was expecting cheap and not good. I have an alpine zip up but I don’t like it much as the zipper leaks a ton of cold air. This sweatshirt is 10x better than my alpine. It is better fabric. The front pocket zips on both sides and is wind proofed with fabric lining. Amazing design. The material is thick and warm. I’m also going to wear this without the included pads as it’s just a super nice sweatshirt that is warmer than the average sweatshirt. The fit is spot on to a normal sided sweatshirt. The thing is a bit awkward to get on and off but you get used to it and there is not much that could really be done about that. I feel this is literally one of the best deals I have ever gotten on Amazon and I buy a lot is crap here.

very well made for the price and surprisingly comfortable. size is a perfect fit.

This hoodie makes me more confident as a newer rider. I feel protected and comfortable. I had previously ordered another brand of padded jacket. It fit extremely tight. Most of the riding clothes on Amazon seem to be unisex so are not made for thick or muscular guys. With the prior jacket experience, I ordered 2 sizes up. Normally I wear an XL, but got the 3XL this time. The bigger sized hoodie is loose in the gut but just right in the armpits, chest, and arms. The first time I rode at highway speeds, the aglets started hitting my helmet and scared me. My fault for not tucking them in. The hoodie is not overly hot. I have ridden with no discomfort in temps up to 87 degrees. The armor doesn't flop around in the hoodie. It is not overly stiff, but you need to work it to make it fit your body comfortably in the elbows and shoulders. This is a great hoodie that I wear on 90 percent of my rides. It would be 5 stars if not for the unisex fitting.

I was looking for some gear that was a little more stealth for when I take my bike to school and thought I would give this a shot, since I have other BYKR gear that I did like. The first thing you need to know is that the sweatshirt itself is incredibly good quality. I am amazed that it is not more money. It is true to size. The second thing you need to know is that it is incredibly awkward to put on and take off due to the CE armor, but I think that is a very fair trade off. The armor however is not the most comfortable when doing non-motorcycle activities, but when you are riding, there is zero issue. Now for thermal properties, aka is this going to keep you warm. This is actually not the easiest to answer. If you are not on your bike on a somewhat warm day (70 F) you are going to be very hot when not riding, but very comfortable when you are. For temperatures around 50 F, things start to get a bit chilly, mostly because the sweatshirt does not break much wind, so air will just go right through. So should you get this? It really depends. If you are looking for a secondary piece of gear that offers some protection and is convenient for short rides, absolutely. If you are a beginner and do not already have a proper motorcycle jacket, I would recommend on holding off.

The pads were bent and needed to be flattened out and I could have gone a size smaller (got a medium) but overall it’s a good hoodie for riding. The pocket had zippers so I won’t loose my stuff, has mesh lining, and snap loops to hook to my belt so it won’t blow up as I ride. Pads are thick enough. For the cost, this is a really good riding hoodie. Looking forward to trying it out.

Im usually an xl and based on the reviews being true to size, thats what i ordered. However upon trying it on, i was swimming in this...arms were too long and just too big overall...i returned it and ordered a Large instead. The material is nice and cozy, although the back pad was put on backwards and most of the pads were curled from shipping...anyway they arent really gripes just observations, but i know i will like this when i get the right size... Update: just received the sweater in the Large size and it fit how i wanted it, however this particular one had tiny specs of oil spot in the front that is noticeable and the front was pilly. The curled padding from shipping is easily corrected buy massaging it and mold it to your body...i had to rework the pads to the desire shape which wasnt hard to do. I still think its a great value for 40 bucks however i wish it was perfect like how i received the XL the first time. Like alot of people said in their reviews, it is hard to put on and even harder to pull off especially if you get sweaty underneath...but worth the effort for the safety and want to look casual when you ride. They should make a zip up hoodie version with padding...that would make it a lot easier to put on and take off.

Fits perfectly. Armor is in the right spots. Great sweatshirt

Edit: Update, the hoodie started to rip at the armpits on both sides. It’s not like I’m tearing at it to get it off, I don’t recommend it anymore. I was concerned it would be a bit *too* snug, but the large fits perfect. I’m a stockier build and it fits my chest and shoulders which is what I was most concerned about. It tighter where it should be (back, shoulders, and arms) and has wiggle room where it should which would be the seams connecting the sleeves to the torso. It hugs my waist comfortably. As far quality, I have an Alpinestars armored hoodie and this brand, BYKR, is definitely comparable but for a 4th of the price. I bought this to just give it a shot as I’m dropping weight and the XL Alpinstars hoodie I have is too loose now. I expect this large to fit just as well at 170lbs, currently ~200lbs. The zippers in the pocket don’t feel cheap and there is no issues with the stitching at all. Granted it’s still summer, but it feels warm and comfy. Time will tell as far as how long it holds up. My Alpinestars hoodie is going in two and half years. Right now, I have no reason to suspect it won’t unless you know…I lay my bike down. Easy recommend and I’ll probably buy another in a couple months if this holds up as I believe it should.

Very happy with this product, n8ce quality. The Armour is basic but still provides protection and the armpits are a bit tight when taking off so slide an arm out first then do the other. Putting on no issue at all and it's really comfy with a bit of wind breathing through so you don't sweat and if you are the type that doesn't like a cool breeze put a long sleeve under. Amazingly priced which would make me buy from this company again for any bike needs.

Buena compra

Excellent bit of kit especially with the armour thrown in,I couldn't believe the quality for such a modest price, true fit also.

Fits great. Ordered 3XL I’m a usually 3XL so it’s true to size. (300lbs 5’9” tall) padded and these are pretty warm lol. Have yet to test out on the ride.

Buena calidad en la tela
