Great product. With the level 2 CE armor and mesh material, I feel protected while getting good airflow and not worry about the armor shifting while riding or in the event of an accident 👍👍

Manessa,
Thank you for your review. It might be that you are in the wrong size. The arms should not be baggy.
Please email us with your measurements so we can size-check you.
Thank you.

My armored shirt has been a welcome relief in the Texas Gulf Coast heat and humidity.
Fits great and the quality feels great. I’m a large but it was to small. I contacted company to return for an extra large. When the return was received they sent out the extra large jacket swiftly. Turn around time for new jacket was exceptional.
I love my Airtex shirt! It’s breezy in this current stifling heat/humidity. I love the fit too. I was skeptical about the size chart suggestion because it suggested a size smaller than I usually wear. I did reach out to customer service to consult about sizing. Kristen was nice, responded quickly, and confirmed what the size chart suggested. My shirt shipped quickly and it fit perfectly! I’ve worn it over shirts and also under big t shirts. It’s more snug, which is different from my usual jacket but it keeps the pads in place nicely! I would definitely recommend the shirt and the company. Trust the size chart but reach out if you need/want to. They’ll get you right.
I've worn this a few times here in the southeastern USA summer - hot and humid. Airflow was great! The shirt fits well and keeps the protection in place... worn under a jersey and it works out very well!
Uncommon customer service. The owner herself returned my call at 9pm her time to answer my questions and help get me fitted. She was right on about the sizing, and im blown away woth the small business service. She even saved me a fee dollars by directing me to a less expensive top. The product itself is top notch. Small business at its finest.
I like the protection of these, well place armor pads and once they have been on a few minutes you dont even know they are there. Had a slide out on the McGruder last week and din’t even get a raspberry on my hip.
The downside is they are pretty warm, like most protection. I call them my dirt bike nylons. The zippers are a bit finicky (especially on the shirt) and the nylon type material is pretty warm. The material on the Bohn shirt I like better. The zipper at the calves is pretty tight so if you have big calves you may have issue.
Honestly, five stars if the zippers worked better. Wore these for three days straight on a 500 mile BDR ride, Beta 500RS
I needed something lighter with better air flow And armor . I live in TEXAS the summer heat is brutal . Riding without armor is not something I want to do anymore , not as young as I once was . These Shirts fit the bill nicely , easy to put on and get off with the zipper front . They are well worth the price !

Sean,
Thank you for your review.
If the armor is moving, it is highly likely you are in the wrong size. It should not be moving.
Please give us a call so that we can ensure you are in the right size. 704-663-0351

Very comfortable in Texas summer weather. Used this instead of armor that came with armored shirt. Also put in the blue shoulder armor. I also cut the black sheet for elbow and forearm. Shirt is thinner and less power ranger look.
A great choice that I’m glad I went with! I have similar shoulder and elbow pads that came with my Pando UH 03 shirt and wanted the same for the back. Big plus that it doesn’t cost a few limbs. It’s thin and flexible without feeling like a portable sauna on my back and is a perfect fit in my Pando shirt as well.
Just what I wanted! Perfect for these hot days while riding in addition to great visibility! I don't know what I was expecting but what I received was exactly what I needed and wanted. I honestly thought it was going to be another heavier shirt/jacket with armor. Light, completely ventilated shirt. This is perfect for those hot summer days.
I called up when I was ordering and got to talk directly to Kristen who sized me over the phone. I was in fact ordering the wrong size until I spoke to her. My first color choice wasn't available but Kristen told me that I would look sexy in what I was getting. How did she know?!?
Good product, well made, well sized. I'm in the process of putting all of my old gear on Marketplace and can't wait to order my flannel shirt for the next season.
Fits great. I'm a lanky 6'2" & 170, & usually find an athletic cut fits best. I usually have fitment issues with length & width on normal long sleeve shirts & jackets. Material is very flexible & comfortable. The Large was a perfect fit for me with enough sleeve, & not too much girth. Pads are pretty comfortable as well.
This is the product I have hoped for many years. Light weight, breathable, comfortable and with L2 protection...simply amazing from Bohn and goes with the upper so I feel much better 2 wheelin' along. I highly recommend the product line and Bohn.
Just do it...
I was looking for a way to add armor to a variety of jackets that I own, and your airtex shirt with shoulder and elbow armor added is the solution. Very comfortable and well made! I look forward to ordering pants when they are back in stock.
