Fieldsheer Titanium Air Jacket
My first mesh jacket was a Fieldsheer Titanium Air. It is mesh all over, with armor and nylon skid pads. This jacket was around $100 (maybe a little less). I liked it, and I only upgraded because I wanted a 3 season jacket with a zip out liner, more leather, and more armor. I replaced this with a Fieldsheer Mach 2.
My main cool weather jacket (and my first jacket purchase) is a Tour Master Cortech 3/4.
Because Fieldsheer's web site has only 2 images per jacket, I decide to put a TON of photos online. If this helps, or if you have suggestions, please drop me a note.

This is the inside pocket. Plenty of room for sunglasses case and a cell phone.
The pocket has a zipper. The pocket material is mesh also.
Velcro closures at the cuff. Keeps bugs out of your sleeves.
Arm snugness adjuster. Velcro. Works ok. At this price a jacket isn't really tailor made.
What it looks like zipped up. Lots of black.
Velcro neck closure, and padding around the top edge of the collar. Fieldsheer stuff is good quality.
Neck closure is velcro. Note little armor bits.
Shoulder and back. There is back armor.
More back stuff.
Shoulder armor and back armor. I'm trying to give an idea how the jacket fits in different positions.
Kind of a mutant turtle thing. I don't know if this is CE armor, but it seems pretty good. Techno pattern.
Wider angle view of the back.
Shoulders have little armor bits.
Elbow armor. I wish this stuff fit better. I'm not convinced that any jackets below $300 will stay put in a get-off.
Front pockets. Mesh inner. Zipper closure.
Waist adjustment. Velcro.
Detail of the waist closure.
Waist closure in the normal position.
The jacket is two layers of mesh. The inner mesh is a smoother, finer weave. Nice construction.
A good sturdy zipper.
The jacket off. That's the back armor.
Arm flex poses. I guess I could have been more creative. Next time, I get photos on a bike or two.
Just more poses.
It has little reflectors. I wish they were larger.
Nifty red stripe up the sleeve. This is a good looking jacket, especially at this price.
More angles.
