textile jackets suck. seriously, the protection is sub par compared to leather. I mean I guess textile is good when its freezing out and its better than nothing. ---

> [@Coldaccord](#): > > textile jackets suck. seriously, the protection is sub par compared to leather. True, if you’re doing 150 on a circuit. Other than that, textile isn’t going to be any less than leather. If you hit the ground at even 70 on the street, you have much bigger things to worry about than the composition of your jacket. > [@Coldaccord](#): > > I mean I guess textile is good when its freezing out and its better than nothing. This makes ZERO sense. Textile jackets breath, leather does not. Why do you think textile jackets are so popular? It’s obviously not because they look cool. Have you ever even ridden a bike before? ---

Full textile jackets DON"T breathe very well, and are better than leather when it’s cold out. Leather Is stronger than any textile that I know of yet. ---

in my research, leather holds up well during multiple crashes. textile works once. obviously, high speed crashes are different, but i don’t plan on going that fast. i have a textile. ---
