Dislikes And Drawbacks

Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket runs small, so you’ll probably want to size up—I found the fit tight, especially with liners inside. Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket only comes in black or silver/black/pink, so you don’t get many color options if you want to stand out. Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket doesn’t include a back protector, and the mesh panels, while great for airflow, mean you lose some abrasion resistance compared to a leather motorcycle jacket.

Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket doesn’t have detailed care instructions, so you’ll need to check the tags or brand’s site for washing tips.
Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket can feel too breezy on cold days, even with the liner, so you might want another layer.
Sedici Alexi 2 Women’s Jacket has a snug fit, so if your body changes or you want to wear thick gear underneath, it might feel tight.

Sedici Alexi 2 Materials

The Sedici Alexi 2 mesh jacket shell uses a full 600D dobby material across the main body. Panels over the shoulders and elbows use 1200D for extra protection during impact, and mesh at the chest, back, and arms keep airflow high on hot rides.

The mesh materials kept me cool even in summer, and the reinforced areas gave me peace of mind about protection if I fell.

The Mesh allows airflow and helps manage temperatures during long rides or hot weather.
The lining inside the shell helps keep it comfortable and improves airflow, especially on days when the sun is out and the road heats up.
Female riders like me who value both safety and comfort will notice the balance between the mesh and the tougher dobby material, especially over the arms and shoulders.

This mesh jacket kept me cool on a long summer ride, and I liked that the elbows and shoulders had extra material for safety”.

The combination of mesh and reinforced textile makes this motorcycle jacket a strong option for those who want fresh air without sacrificing protection.

Feature	Material	Placement	Benefit
Main shell	600D dobby	Full jacket	Durable, light
Reinforcement	1200D textile	Shoulders, elbows	High impact protection
Mesh panels	Hard mesh	Chest, back, arms	Cooling
Lining	Mesh/fabric	Throughout shell	Comfort, ventilation

Sedici Alexi 2 Adjustment Points

This jacket includes adjustment points at the waist, cuffs, forearms, and upper arms to help you get the right sizing.

I use the waist adjuster to get a snug fit, and the arm straps keep the armor in place so it doesn’t move around when I ride.

The ergonomic cut is designed for female shapes, so you can cinch the waist and adjust the sleeves for layering or a more tailored look.

Waist adjusters help keep the shell close to your body, which is helpful when adding or removing the liner.
Forearm, bicep, and wrist closures let you tighten or loosen the sleeves, which is great when you wear thicker gloves or want to keep the wind out.
The accordion stretch material at the shoulders and elbows improves comfort and lets you reach the handlebars without feeling restricted.

I liked the sizing last season, but I found it tight with the liner in after gaining weight. I’m thinking about sizing up next time”. I think that if you’re between sizes or plan to layer, you should go up a size for the best feel.

Adjustment Point	Location	Function
Waist	Sides	Felling, layering
Forearm	Arms	Armor placement, glove fit
Bicep	Upper arms	Sleeve fit, armor security
Wrist	Cuffs	Wind control, glove compatibility
Stretch panels	Shoulders, elbows	Comfort, reach

If you ride in changing weather, the removable interior and adjustment points make it easy to adapt. The reinforced material and smart design keep me cool, feel good, and give me confidence on my bike.

Alexi 2 Interior

The Sedici Alexi 2 mesh jacket interior combines a full mesh lining with removable waterproof and thermal liners.

Riders like me appreciate how the liner uses 100 grams of insulation in the body and 60 grams in the arms, keeping warmth focused where you need it most.

The neoprene-lined collar and throat insert reduce chafing, which I noticed during a 4-hour ride in 50°F weather.

Mesh lining inside the exterior shell improves ventilation and prevents overheating when riding in hot conditions.
Liners attach via color-coded YKK zippers, making swapping layers easy without confusion.
The thermal liner kept me warm enough for fall rides, but I added a base layer below freezing.

Type	Insulation	Attachment Method	Best For
Waterproof	None	Zipper	Rain, wind
Thermal	100g/60g	Zipper	Cool temperatures
Mesh (default)	None	Integrated	Hot weather

Alexi 2Waterproofing

The removable full-sleeve waterproof interior uses a YKK Vislon main zipper with a rain gutter to block water.

I tested it in light rain and stayed dry, though I haven’t tried it in heavy downpours. The low-profile zipper attachment reduces bulk, which helps when layering over thicker clothing.

The waterproof mesh lining manages airflow, so you don’t feel stuffy during sudden summer showers.
It kept me dry in a drizzle, but I’d use a rain suit for storms”.
Color-coded wrist connections prevent mismatching interiors, saving time when adjusting to changing weather.

Breathability

Hard mesh inserts at the chest, back, and inner arms maximize ventilation while riding in heat. The exterior shell’s full mesh lining keeps air moving, which I relied on during a 90°F desert ride.

The Fold-down collar adjustments let you direct airflow toward your neck or face.

Based on measurements, the mesh material accounts for 40% of the surface area.
Riders in humid climates praise the mesh for reducing sweat buildup during stop-and-go traffic.
I unzipped the collar halfway and felt immediate cooling—no more oven effect”.

Ventilation

Ventilation relies on strategic mesh placement and the collar’s fold-down design. I opened the collar fully during a midday ride and felt cool air circulate across my shoulders and back, a feature that helps me survive 100°F+ summers in Arizona.

Mesh materials at the inner arms align with handlebar positions, cooling wrists during long grips.
Accordion stretch panels at the shoulders and elbows prevent restricted movement when reaching for controls.
Even with the interior removed, ventilation stays consistent at highway speeds”.

The Sedici Alexi 2 interior adapts to your needs, whether you’re battling summer heat or layering for cooler rides.

I’ve used it in 50°F to 95°F conditions by swapping the interior and adjusting ventilation points, making it a practical choice for varied climates.

Sizing

The Sedici Alexi 2 Mesh Jacket’s sizing uses a ladies’- specific ergonomic cut, which means it is tailored to the female form.

I noticed the sizing is very form-fitting, with accordion stretch materials at the shoulders and elbows that help with bar reach and movement.

The waist, forearms, and biceps have adjustment straps so you can fine-tune the sizing for comfort on long rides.

It includes stretch materials at the arms and shoulders, which help keep the armor in place and improve comfort.
The lining adds comfort, especially when worn over a T-shirt or base layer.
The removable liners make it easier to adjust the sizing for different weather conditions, but it stays snug.

It Tends To Run Small

Most users, including me, found this jacket runs small, so sizing up is often needed if you’re between sizes or want to add a layer.

After gaining weight, I noticed the fit became less accommodating, especially with the thermal liner inside. The size chart gives measurements, but you may still need to try a larger size for the best sizing.

Size	Chest (in)	Waist (in)	Hips (in)	Arm (in)
XS	33-34	26-27	38-39	21.5-22
SM	35-36	28-29	39-40	22-22.5
MD	37-38	30-31	40-41	22.5-23
LG	39-40	32-33	42-43	23.5-24
XL	41-42	35-37	44-45	24-24.5
2XL	43-44	39-41	46-47	25-25.5
3XL	45-46	43-45	47-48	26

I’m 5’10” with a 38-inch chest, and the medium fits me well, but I wouldn’t have been able to add much underneath.
The fitted nature means this motorcycle jacket hugs the body, which some riders like, but it doesn’t leave much room for size changes.
If you plan to use the removable thermal or rain liner often, I’d suggest going up one size for comfort.

Lacks Gender-Specific Sizing Comparison

There’s no information about differences between a men’s version and this women’s version of the Sedici Alexi 2 Mesh Jacket.

The only details available are about the female-specific ergonomic cut, designed to improve the female form. I can’t compare the cut, measurements, or user experiences with a men’s version since the sources don’t mention it.

The cut focuses on fit, comfort, and flexibility for women riders.
I like that the stretch panels and adjustable straps help keep this jacket comfortable on long rides.

If you want a mesh motorcycle jacket with a female-specific cut, adjustable sizing, and removable interior for changing weather, the Sedici Alexi 2 is a solid choice.

Just remember to check the size chart and consider sizing up if you’re between sizes.

Safety And Protection

The Alexi 2 comes with CE Level 2 shoulder and elbow armor, giving you a high level of protection where it matters most.

I like knowing the it comes with armor and meets a strong standard for impact, especially since I ride in city traffic where accidents can happen fast.

It also has an area for a back protector, and I checked that a size MD AXIAL AX1 or AX2 fits every size, so you can upgrade your armor without guessing about compatibility.

CE Level 2 armor covers the main impact zones—shoulders and elbows—right out of the box.
The back protector makes adding more protection easy, and the feel is consistent across all sizes.
I added the AXIAL back pad for peace of mind, and it slides into the pocket without any trouble.”

Armor Location	Contains	CE Level	Upgrade Option	Material Reinforcement
Shoulders	Yes	2	No	1200D over 600D
Elbows	Yes	2	No	1200D over 600D
Back	No	—	Yes	—

Shoulder And Elbow Protectors

This model includes CE Level 2 shoulder and elbow armor, with 1200D material reinforced in both areas over the standard 600D shell.

I noticed the extra thickness at the shoulders and elbows, which helps keep me confident about abrasion resistance if I slide.

The armor sits inside the lining, so it stays put during movement and doesn’t shift around when I adjust the feeling.

The 1200D materials at the shoulders and elbows are easy to spot and feel more substantial than the rest of the jacket.
I’ve worn it on long rides, and the stretch panels at the arms help keep the armor in place even when I’m leaning forward.
A Cycle Gear review mentioned, “The armor is comfortable and doesn’t dig in, even on longer days.”

Back Protector Pocket

It has a pocket designed for an optional AXIAL back protector, which you’ll need to buy separately if you want back protection.

I like that Sedici specifies the exact model and size that fits, so you don’t waste time or money on the wrong insert.

I haven’t seen feedback on how the back protector changes the sizing or ventilation, but adding one is simple if you want more protection for your spine.

The back protector is easy to access, and the lining keeps the pad from shifting.
I picked the AXIAL AX1, and it slid in without any struggle.
If you want to upgrade, just check the size chart and grab the right AXIAL insert.

Sedici Alexi 2 Mesh Uses Abrasion Resistant Materials

Abrasion resistance comes from the full 600D dobby shell, with 1200D reinforcement over the shoulders and elbows for extra slide protection.

I’ve run my hands over the mesh and the reinforced zones, and the difference in material thickness is clear.

The mesh panels give you airflow, but the 1200D panels help keep you safe if you go down on the road.

The panels at the shoulders and elbows use a higher denier material, which helps during a slide.
I’ve worn it in hot weather, and the mesh panels keep me cool without feeling flimsy.
I feel confident riding in this mesh jacket, knowing the impact zones have extra protection.

Suppose you want a motorcycle jacket that balances ventilation with real protection. In that case, the Sedici Alexi 2 covers the basics with CE Level 2 armor, a back protector, and reinforced panels in key zones.

I’ve used it for both city commutes and longer rides and felt protected without giving up comfort or cooling. This model delivers where it counts for riders who want both safety and flexibility.

Available Colors

It comes in Black and Silver/Black/Pink, giving you two ways to match your gear or bike.

I picked the Black version because it matches most of my pants and looks sharp with the mesh panels on the chest and arms.

I liked the Silver/Black/Pink option for a lighter look and a pop of color, but I wished there were more choices.

Color Option	Description
Black	Solid black panels, mesh
Silver/Black/Pink	Silver with black and pink

Both colors use the same mesh materials for airflow and protection.
The main zipper and collar match the color scheme, keeping the look clean.
If you want more color variety, you might find the choices limited compared to other motorcycle jackets.

Visibility Elements

It has reflective pops on the top of the shoulder, at the top of the back, and on the elbow area to help with visibility.

I noticed the reflective panels catch headlights when I am in the garage at night, which helps me feel safer on evening rides. The reflective pieces on the arms and back show up well in traffic, especially when I’m stopped at lights.

Visibility Element	Location	Purpose
Reflective pop	Shoulder top	Increase visibility
Reflective pop	Back top	Key driver sightline
Reflective pop	Elbow	Side visibility

The placement of reflective panels is smart, focusing on areas that move and catch light.
The main zipper area isn’t reflective, but the upper panels and arms do most of the work.
If you ride at night or in low light, these reflective pops help other drivers spot you without changing the jacket’s look.

If you want a mesh jacket with two color options and built-in visibility features, the Sedici Alexi 2 Mesh Women’s Jacket covers the basics.

The reflective details work well for night rides, and the colorways offer a choice between classic black and a brighter look.
