Default furygan jackets

Hi, I'm considering buying a Furygan textile short jacket for summer.

Has back protector included attached.

Approx £150 from J&S.

Anyone had one, recommend or advise against?


Cheers,

Dave

If you're after a decent textile jacket, take a look at the AlpineStar "Stunt T".

I've had mine for two years, offers good protection, removable lining and looks good (there's a few colour options too). Only thing is that the white bits wont stay white for too long.

They also do an "airflow" one with loads of vents for summer to keep you nice and cool

J&S have some Alpinestars kit on offer at the moment, including a short textile jacket for £80. Might be worth a look.

Default how are you getting on with your Furygan textile jacket?

Hi there -

how are you getting on with your Furygan textile jacket? I am thinking of buying one. Like the Sportec and also the TX3 EN1.

Not that near a J&S unfortunately as they seem to be the most competitive. Would order on line but have no idea how the size comes up.

What do you make of the quality, warmth and waterproof-ness?

Think the styling is great, have heard quality good and they look good value...

Let me know,

Cheers, C.

Not textile, but I got a Furygan Oyster leather jacket earlier this year. Absolutely ace... Too hot for really hot weather, is literally the only downside.

Furygan's sizing isn't generous, and the jackets I tried didn't have much adjustability. I'm 5'10 and 31" waist, and the medium just barely fits.

Default sizing of Furygan...

I'm about the same height as you, and a bit fatter (32 waist). So may be a large for me. As anything, I need to try one on and see I guess.

Cheers for the tips......
