Hi-Viz Horrible Appearance. Hi-Viz Horrible Appearance. The hi- viz color is just horribly dirty. Additionally, nothing I’ve tried- that Helite recommended- helps whatsoever. The scuff marks from the seat, backrest, handling with gloves (?) seem to be permanently imbedded on the vest, both on the rear and front of the vest. Nothing seems to remove the dirt and scuff marks. A 2 year old vest looks like it’s 10 years old with no way to clean it to improve its looks. It’s an eyesore already!

THIS VEST CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE!!! Bought the vest earlier this year. Unfortunately got into an accident a couple months ago while splitting lanes. The vest worked flawlessly, and I walked away with just minor bruising on my arms and legs, despite landing on the bike and rolling on the ground. I am 100% confident that I would have had broken ribs and spinal injuries without the vest.

The leather jacket is quite heave but… The leather jacket is quite heave but that's what it is expected. Air flow is excellent for summer ride. The only complain I have is that the leather around zipper head area curl up after a few weeks. Looked ugly. I hope it doesn't affect the function of the air bag.

Just the nature of an airbag gets a… Just the nature of an airbag gets a little hot in the summertime with minimum airflow to your body. Has gone off three times with me although wasn’t going slow and just tipped over and got very tight and secure the neck as well. But deflated in a reasonable time.

WORTH IT! Very well built vest. Super comfortable - even for a guy who's 6'5" tall and 300+ lbs. When I'm riding, I don't even know i'm wearing it! Customer service is great bar none! I definitely recommend Helite to anyone that rides anything.
