My previous comments on this jacket: The Meteor 4.0 combines safety, good looks and convenience features all in one affordable jacket. The short waist style with pre-curved sleeves is a favorite for sport bike riders. For safety, the jacket features removable dual density armor in the shoulders, elbows and back. The shoulder and elbow pieces are kept in a zippered pocket which is accessible from the outside. The pocket is formed with a second layer of “Rocktex” material in those areas (so in the critical crash areas, you’ve got two layers of abrasion resistant fabric and the armor pieces). The sleeves have a neat adjustment feature that lets you snug up the arms to hold the armor in position and keep the wind-flap to a minimum. There are also waist adjusters on each side and two hip zippers to allow for a more comfortable fit. The Meteor 4.0 is designed to be an all-weather, all-season riding jacket. It claims waterproof construction (but I’m convinced that it’s darn near impossible to make a completely waterproof jacket like this, so we’ll say “water-resistant”), with a double entry zipper and closure flaps over each zipper to help keep moisture out. For hot weather, you can use the front zippered vents and the rear zippered exhaust vent (to help prevent “ballooning”). But for cold weather, you can use the zip-in full sleeve lining. For convenience, all the zippers, flaps and such have large molded rubber handles that can be operated with gloves, but they are soft as to not hurt if the wind moves them. The jacket has some nice styling touches too: a raised collarbone pad adds some pizazz and the JR jacket identifiers on the jacket are less noticeable, but very tastefully done. The jacket zips to Joe Rocket textile pants.
