What a load of tosh :D
Fuel’s “Rally Raid” jacket is all about bringing that sense of adventure to your rides. Expertly-crafted to the highest specifications, it will allow you to embrace the off-road in maximum comfort and protection. 

The jacket invokes the spirit of the heroes of a golden era whose goals were to embark on life-changing adventures, not just to win races. The call of the wild was never far from their hearts, and it’s never far from ours either. 

This garment was produced using Smoothways CE level 2 body armor at the elbow, shoulder and spine for your protection. Come on, let’s ride together and discover new horizons!

I assume fuel refers to something beyond the obvious, but to me it looks like a jacket from a computer game where they couldn't afford the rights to any real company names :D

Shame that, after telling us how wonderful the fabric is, they omitted which CE rating it has.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

Truth is, most people read "CE" then switch off. But I think you knew that anyway ;)

I kid you not, I googled "Hipster Motorcycle Gear" and got this as the first result.

The Fuel jackets look much better in the Blue or the sand colours.

The white Fuel jacket would be covered in shite here instantly, but ideal for the enviroment there.

Belstaff wax jacket for the proper RE look, be too warm though over there

Isn't that so annoying! Think that's where SBS is so good as you can order multiple and just send em back free in the UK.
