Not all warm places stay dry all day. Made for warm temperatures, Shift’s Backdraft mesh jacket keep things cool. If rain clouds are overhead, zip in the water resistant liner to stay dry. CE armor in the shoulders and elbows reduce injuries from falls. A foam back pad works as a protector but, you can remove it, or better yet, replace it with an upgraded item for additional impact protection. This jacket fits a little looser and longer in the sleeves than others in Shifts lineup. Cuff and neck zippers have Velcro straps to prevent them from opening. Rain or shine, Shift’s Backdraft jacket can quickly be matched to current conditions.
