Max WP zips close it up, while it has CE-approved Level 1 armour in the shoulders and elbows, with a Level 2 back protector hiding behind a removable thermal lining. It sports eight pockets in all (four in, four out) and comes in sizes small to 5XL. Buy this jacket here.
Bering Carlos King Black
£229.99 | Available: www.bikerheadz.co.uk
The Carlos King is, one might say, for the sturdier gentleman as it only comes in sizes large to 5XL.
It still fits the bill though, with CE-approved armour in the right places, a breathable and waterproof membrane and an obligatory removable thermal lining.
It also boasts a FlexFit adjustment system, a dedicated wallet-pocket, four outer and two inner pockets plus a further pocket for a back protector. For the larger biker, this jacket may get your vote given it was designed specifically. Get your hands on this jacket here.
Richa Phantom 2
£149.99 | Available: www.nevis.uk.com
Richa began life as a proper budget brand. But, after building a great reputation in the budget arena, the company have branched upwards, with some of their winter jackets costing over £600.
However, Richa refuse to forget their roots, like here with the sub-£150 Phantom 2 jacket.
It comes in sizes XS to a belt-busting 12XL, features the latest D3O protection, WP pockets, the right kind of adjustability in just the right places and some fluoro panels. Be aware that after 3XL the price goes up to £164.99. Buy this jacket here.
