I flipped my go kart wearing a Carhartt jacket. slid on my head and back with kart on top of me for a while even. As long as they're nothing really jagged (like chunks of rock) they won't tear. But I still wouldn't ride in one, no armor.WVUChrome wrote:Adressing the Carhartt idea, it will keep you warm. But, it will not offer much protection. I went down wearing one while I was learning to ride on my dirtbike and ended up tearing it. Mind you this was on a dirt road. I can't imagine it holding up well on asphalt.
