Tour Master Saber Series 2 Textile Jacket

The Saber Series 2 jacket is a 3/4 length textile jacket at a great value. This jacket will work well in cold to mild temperatures and is a great option for touring riders. For mild weather the jacket has two good sized shoulder intake vents, two bicep vents and a large rear exhaust vent. The jacket offers waterproof construction by way of a mid-liner. Use of a mid-liner keeps water out effectively but the shell material of the jacket gets wet. Although the zippered venting is extensive the mid-liner won’t allow free flow of air all the way through the jacket. Also this jacket has a solid nylon inside lining rather than mesh, so I’d recommend this jacket for cold to mild weather use (but not for hot weather). For cooler rides a removable full sleeve liner is included and can be installed to add a layer of insulation. The jacket has a good amount of storage with two front hand warmer pockets, two cargo style pockets and a large back storage pocket. For crash protection the shoulders and elbows come equipped with removable CE approved armor and there is also a removable triple density backpad. The jacket allows you to customize the fit with an adjustable waist, sleeves and cuff closures. The main zipper of the jacket is “two way” meaning you zip it up normally from the bottom, but you can also raise a second zipper slider from the bottom which will help with comfort when sitting on a bike in the riding position. There is an 8” jacket to pants attachment zipper for use with any Tour Master or Cortech riding pants. Overall this jacket offers a great deal of practical features and good protection at a great price.
