Does the Carve Master 3 include a back protector?

No. It has a pocket for a Dainese G1 or G2 back protector, which is sold separately. Elbow and shoulder Pro-Armor Level 2 Type B protectors are included.

Can I wear it in summer?

Yes, with the thermal liner removed and the chest and back vents open. Owners say ventilation works well above about 20 degrees, but it is not a mesh summer jacket.

Is it fully waterproof?

It uses a GORE-TEX membrane, so it is waterproof and breathable. It is not a laminated shell, so the outer fabric can soak up water in long heavy rain.

What is the difference from the Carve Master 2?

The Carve Master 3 moves to Pro-Armor Level 2 Type B protectors at the elbows and shoulders and keeps the GORE-TEX membrane and removable liner. It is an evolution of the same all-weather touring formula.

How does it compare with a laminated Gore-Tex touring jacket?

A laminated jacket bonds the membrane to the outer shell, so it absorbs less water and dries faster. The Carve Master 3 is softer and more comfortable off the bike but can wet out in sustained rain.

What pockets does it have?

Four outer pockets, two of them waterproof, and two inner pockets. There are also dedicated pockets for a back protector and a double chest protector.
