Description of 🦂 Scorpion EXO Vortex Air Jacket (Small, Dark Grey): Superior Performance and Style

The combination of large gauge mesh and abrasion-resistant Rhino-Mesh® on Scorpion Exo®'s Vortex Air chassis results in up to 30% more airflow while providing 3x the abrasion resistance of typical mesh riding jackets. Protection: Lightweight Rhino-MeshTM chassis provides 3x the abrasion resistance of typical mesh riding jackets. Level-up to even more abrasion resistance with integrated 600D polyester reinforcements at key impact points (shoulders, elbows, and lower back). Complimenting this ultra-abrasion resistant chassis is C.E. Level 1 approved Exo-Tec® armor at the shoulders and elbows plus an included high-density back protector that can be upgraded to Scorpion's Sas-Tec® C.E.

Build quality and looks great!

I was just impressed when I tried this jacket on! It's high quality and perfect for me. I'm 6 inches and 185 pounds with a 40 inch chest. The large size is just right for use with the lining of a jacket. This is the first high visibility gear I've ever bought, but given the distraction of today's riders, it makes perfect sense! The jacket fits perfectly when I'm sitting upright on my Bonneville T120.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Great for summer rides and well built.

Looks great. Has very good airflow and stays cool even on 95 degree sunny days as long as I'm moving at 10 mph or more. It feels like quality workmanship and materials. Two minor criticisms: the collar loop for hanging the jacket sometimes flips and rubs against the neck, and the plastic zipper tip on the sleeve is very flexible and can easily break. I stopped unbuttoning my sleeves to keep them from tearing.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Unreliable

Good mesh jacket with super ventilation, light

Excellent summer jacket, very well ventilated and light compared to textile or leather jackets. The fit is also very good, but when I wear a thick shirt inside, it becomes uncomfortable. I'm 5ft 10 inches and 175 pounds athletic build with a small stomach. The armor feels good and is almost invisible. It's a shame you have to shell out another $40 for rear protection. Also the biggest disappointment for me was that the gray areas were very shimmery which almost made me look like I was going to…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • The list will be long.

I shouldn't have been surprised, but I still was!

After reading the reviews on this and many other jackets, choosing the Scorpion Vortex Air Jacket was a relatively easy decision. It arrived just six days after I ordered it (c'mon bum! lol.) and more than anything I hoped it would fit. I'm about 5ft 10" and 275lbs (I owe work from home) so I ordered a 3XL. As soon as I put the jacket on, I knew it was a perfect fit - ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! fantastic and the construction seems excellent. Thank you for such a wonderful product and at this price I…

Dress to SLIDE, not ride

Great mesh jacket (with protection) for hot summer days. Has an insert to install if rain or cool weather is forecast. I originally ordered a jacket through the Scorpion sizing website that was too big for me. Easy return to get the size you want (3XL). I have a 52 inch suit and the 3XL fits me with plenty of room. I've recently worn it while riding my motorcycle over 3100 times in five states and I appreciated the fact that I had some upper body protection (I use armor under my jeans for some…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Nothing here

My favorite summer jacket

Nothing to say except that this is my favorite riding jacket on hot days. The warmest I've ever experienced was around 85F, which is nice. I love that it has a belt loop on the back and it keeps it from flapping/pulling on me while riding. The mesh technology lets air through REALLY well. I am very impressed. I also have a pair of Dainese jackets and a 3 season TourMaster but this Scorpion is my choice for summer riding. I like the airflow and the fit. It is very comfortable for my body and…

Summer motorcycle jacket with good mesh

I wanted a summer motorcycle jacket and I like it. More (or less) than just fabric (no leather), it has a lightweight nylon lining that easily peels away to leave a summer jacket that's a mix of heavyweight nylon in some high-wear areas and mesh in major areas of use clean air. blows. Just a couple of pockets (not useless) with good zips, seems like what I was looking for. BTW, I bought mine in an open box from Revain and it looked brand new to me with tags. All is well. Size wise I'm a short…
