While armor integrated adventure jackets are the masters of versatility, they can be hot and cumbersome for extended technical off-road riding where asphalt-level abrasion protection isn't needed. For these situations where you're pushing your limits in the dirt, a jersey and separate armor provide the ideal mix between ventilation and protection. 

The KLIM Dakar Jersey blends durability, airflow and flexibility to create a well-balanced jersey for any off-road environment. The Dakar features heavy duty stretch mesh sleeves with an additional full-length stretch panel for mobility. Open mesh in the armpits, sides and lower torso add more airflow, making it perfect for aggressive riders. A zippered pocket on the upper arm is where you can store anything from earplugs to a small snack to an ID card, or anything else you might take on the trails or a dual-sport ride.
