Best New Breathable Jacket
Icon Anthem 2 Mesh Jacket
When the heat’s really on, a mesh jacket is the answer: It’s protective, but it’s also highly breathable, taking advantage of all the air flow that comes with riding a bike. The Anthem 2 provides tremendous venting with its mesh shell. But, it’s reinforced with nylon paneling and comes with shoulder, elbow, and back impact protectors. Inside, a removable, full-length liner allows you to ride with or without some insulation. Thumb loops extend from the wrists to help keep the arms in place while riding or in the event of a fall. This Icon top comes in white, gray, black, or even highly visible yellow-green to help make you more visible in traffic. [$190; rideicon.com]
