Hi guys,

I would like to get some advices.
Is a leather jacket still ok with the weather here ?
I would like to buy an Icon Timax 2 leather jacket but i'm just scared to by a cooker instead of a jacket :O

Should I forget this idea because of the weather ?

Thanks for your advices

nice jacket....but it looks like you'll be a sweat bag when you use it here...just wondering though...are the two zippers in the upper chest area for ventilation?

just checked your link, me mesh version yang jacket na yan mas maganda yun sa klima na natin. also if i may suggest check out the romracing thread, me group na nagpagawa ng ganyang design, parehong-pareho.

Yes sir the 2 front zippers are for ventilation, and all the back part was builded to improve the back ventilation, full titanium protection.

I hope i won't be like in a rice cooker lol like with some full leather jacket i have seen.

but for the price 450$ (shipping fees included) I think that's not a bad deal and the leather jacket seems to protect better than nylon one.
The price for the nylon model is around 320$ (without shipping fees) for a brand new one (not fake).
