Re: Need to chill out! (Kennedy)
Vanson, Vanson, Vanson! I have a Vanson "Night Rider" (I think it's called) leather with vent panels in the arms, chest and lower back. This isn't a perf'ed jacket but breathes sufficiently well so I am not dying as long as I am moving through the summer swelter. For the truly hot days I wear a Vanson "Vent" mesh jacket, not to be confused with their mesh shirt. The jacket is ballistic material all over with athletic mesh in the chest, sides, and inside the arms and all "impact areas" have an underlayment of heavy-weight leather, plus CE armor. Can't go wrong with this combo.
I think Vanson just moved production of their Vent jacket overseas and dropped the price $100.
