When it comes to motorcycle safety gear, every rider wants the perfect balance of impact protection, comfort, and breathability. The experts at Motorcycle Gear Hub agree — and they’ve just named the Bohn Armor Airtex™ Adventure Shirt their top pick for Best Armored Base Layer.
Roy Martin, founder of McGearHub.com, and his team of gear reviewers put dozens of armored shirts to the test. Their verdict?
"If maximum impact protection is what matters to you rather than abrasion protection, then the Bohn Armor Airtex Adventure shirt is a great choice.”
Why the Airtex™ Adventure Shirt Stands Out
All-around CE Level 2 protection — shoulders, elbows, back, and chest.
- Equipped with SAS-TEC SC-1/EVO impact protectors, highly rated for absorbing and dispersing impact energy.
- Extended elbow armor that reaches the wrist for maximum coverage.
- CE Level 2 SC-1/CP5 chest protector is among the best in the industry.
- Lightweight, breathable mesh for hot-weather riding comfort.
- Designed to fit under any jacket or jersey without shifting.
Expert Praise for Uncompromising Safety
The Motorcycle Gear Hub team highlighted the custom-fit armor design, which keeps protection exactly where you need it, even in high-movement situations.
"The Bohn Armor Airtex Adventure shirt comes in stock form with custom-made SAS-TEC CE Level 2 impact protectors... these protectors are constantly out of stock because they’re just that good.”
