Dainese has unveiled its new summer mesh jacket, the Ventar Air Tex. It offers high breathability while incorporating Level 2 protection, and is compatible with chest, back, and airbag options.
Gear has no gender, it's only about whether it fits. With the Ventar Air Tex, the key question is how it balances the conflicting demands of ventilation and protection. Fitting a Level 2 rating while still venting through mesh is a tough design challenge. Built with airbag compatibility in mind too — this is a piece I want to actually test before judging.

With Level 2 protection, does a higher number mean safer?
It just means Level 2 clears a higher impact-absorption standard than Level 1.
High-spec jackets always end up expensive once you add in the options.
Chest, back, and airbag all available as options—that's a lot of room to expand.
Dainese's mesh jacket—I replace mine every year as a summer essential.
Doing a slight model change every single year honestly feels a bit like a sales tactic.
Balancing ventilation and protection isn't as easy as it sounds, I'd say.
Even a mesh jacket with built-in Level 2 protection is a lifesaver for the season ahead.
