The RS Taichi RSJ355 Quick Dry Smart Jacket is a riding jacket in stretch quick-dry fabric that looks like an everyday jacket, priced at 4,500,000 VND. It comes with CE Level 1 shoulder and elbow armor and a foam back pad. The water-repellent fabric handles light rain. The fit is slim, so go up one size. It suits daily city riding and long touring.
Match your ride
The RSJ355 Quick Dry Smart Jacket is for riders who want an armored jacket that still looks like an ordinary jacket. You can wear it to work every day, walk into a cafe or around town without looking bulky, and take it on long tours as well.
The fabric stretches with your movement. Shoulder and elbow armor are included, and the back holds a foam pad.
This is neither a mesh jacket nor a rain jacket. If you need maximum airflow for all-day midday city riding, or a jacket for heavy rain without a rain layer on top, the RSJ355 is not the right match.
Armor
The jacket includes soft CE Level 1 armor at both shoulders and both elbows. RS Taichi makes the armor position adjustable so each piece sits on your own joints.
The back only holds a foam pad, and that pad is not CE certified. BigBike states this plainly so you do not mistake the foam pad for a back protector.
BigBike has test-fitted the Taichi TRV094 back protector in the RSJ355 and it sits properly in the back pocket. If you tour far, buy this protector to replace the foam pad.
The jacket is ready for a Taichi chest protector, which is sold separately. Armor is protective construction that comes with the jacket, not a promise of safety in a crash.
Sun and rain
On the move, air passes through the fabric and the fixed vent on the back, so you feel cool. At a red light or in a traffic jam the jacket warms up, because it is a fabric jacket and not a mesh one.
The fabric is water repellent, so you can keep riding in light rain. Heavy rain soaks through, and that is when you put a rain jacket on top. In return the fabric dries quickly after getting wet.
The fabric surface shows white marks when rubbed hard, so avoid letting backpack straps or hard objects rub against it for long.
Size and fit
The RSJ355 has a slim fit, so go up one size from what you normally wear. The maker's chart uses height, chest and waist, so measure those three and check them before deciding.
BigBike stocks four sizes, M, L, XL and XXL, in black. Come to the shop to try it on or send your three measurements on Zalo for a size recommendation.
The jacket has a drawcord at the hem, adjustable cuffs and one inner pocket. Reflective detail on the back helps traffic behind see you after dark. There is no connection zip to trousers.
Choose or skip
Choose the RSJ355 when you need one jacket for both commuting and touring, with shoulder and elbow armor, that lets you keep going in light rain. It suits riders who dislike the bulky look of armored jackets.
Look at another model if you mostly ride in the city at midday and need a truly airy mesh jacket, or you want a CE back protector included without buying extra.
The advice to go up one size is for the slim cut of this jacket. If you have a larger waist or broad shoulders, come to the shop and try it on with the back protector before deciding.
