Comfortable Protection
I bought this shirt as a second layer of protection while adventure bike & dirt bike riding. I also use it for mountain biking which makes it a good versatile shirt for the money. I am 5’9” 180 lbs athletic build. I chose the large and it fits perfect and is quite comfortable even for long periods of riding.

comfy and not too hot
seems good, very comfortable, and not too hot - the stretch I think makes the sizing a big smaller (I'm 6'3" 180lbs usually a LG, but the MD is better). Can wear under moto jacket fine. Padding seems well placed, and will hopefully stay in place in a spill.
Tried the Icon version of this - super uncomfy - I think because they also have kevlar for slide where this doesn't - so better for comfort, but still need to wear something overtop for slide/abrasion.
One downside (but could also be an upside from a crash perspective) is it's really hard/awkward to take off - with the stretchy fabric and the chest/back.

Practically perfect riding under shirt
I bought this about a month ago, since then put 800kms on the bike with this shirt on. It doesn’t feel like I’m wearing any armour which is nice. It’s not too bulky and can put on pretty much any of my clothes over top without needing to size up on them. Stretchy but form fitting. For reference I’m 6’3 and 240lbs

Questions
Any idea what equivalent level of protection this shirt offers in the padded areas? CE Level 1?
The shirt does not reach the standard for CE Level 1 certification, so the protection it provides would be less than this
