I read somewhere those mesh/textile riding jackets are more for protecting the rider from abrasion/road rash while the armor for impact . Maybe save it and buy an armor next time

Textile are useless against road rash. The only good protection against road rash and abrasion is leathers.
but leather is feckin hot if ride whole day, thats why i thought of armour + mesh combo.

armour + padded jacket???
then waterfall inside...
sure all wet
Armour inside, mesh jacket outside. Not too hot la.
In case of crash, the mesh will koyak but your armour will be your 2nd defense.
Better than cheaplak textile with only foam padding.
