"We tested the Breeze Perforated Leather Jacket on a recent ride to New Hampshire, a trip that involved huge changes in weather from 95 degrees to 65 degrees all in a matter of minutes. Unfortunately these changes included some significant rain and no perforated jacked is designed to be waterproof — any jacket that lets the air in will also let the rain in!
Lucky for me I had another layer I could quickly put on to prevent water coming through the perforations, so don't use this jacket if you expect to be riding in the rain much. And, even if you don't expect it, you shouldn't ride with this or any other perforated jacket without a second, waterproof layer in case of showers.
This jacket is very good value for the money. For $249.00 you get a leather jacket that's well made and has enough protection in case something happens. You also get a leather jacket that provides excellent ventilation because of the perforations, making it much more comfortable to ride in the heat. It even has enough room to wear a thick under-layer for some fall and winter riding, if you want."
