Nice heavy jacket, very warm. Read more

This is a really nice jacket! It's made very well. Plenty of pockets and room for everything. The lining zips out if you choose. The concealed carry part is well thought out and functional. As far as fit, the small fits well. My weight fluctuates within 10 lbs up and down and the side lacing makes that forgiving without sacrificing fit. Love it! Read more

I like the jacket, it fit well altogether. It fit around my belly and the arms though a little to long were acceptable as I am not a small person I am 5'6 and 270#'s. The inner liner was ok to take out and put back in, there are snaps in the sleeves to keep it in place. There are plenty of pockets on the inside and outside to keep things like your phone or a small wallet and keys. Overall I think this jacket will work for me, just wish it was a little bit longer.

This jacket looks great both on and off the motorcycle due to its timeless styling and high quality construction. The leather is thick, so thick that you might need to wear it for a full season before it's really broken in. The lapel collar is functional and offers additional warmth for early season rides. In fact, every design feature is functional, nothing done here for a poser look. The design of the shoulders, with internal pleats on the back aids in reaching the bars. There three zippered pockets on the outside with the breast pocket being perfect for carrying cash and credit cards. There is an additional "small change" packet covered with a snap flap. Inside is a very large snap closed pocket that will fit a standard travel map. As far as riding jackets go, this is about one of the best we have ever seen. Let's talk about the fit. My wife is wearing a size Small and her normal dress size is 2. When we first unpacked, we thought it was going to be a touch too big. As my wife put it on, her first comment was just how heavy it is but once on, you feel very protected. Because of the stiffness of the leather, there is not a lot of extra room to wear layers underneath. We do feel that with use, it would loosen up and allow for an addition medium weight layer. If you plan on wearing an inflatable vest or a back protector, we would recommend going up a size. While the chest and back have enough room , the addition of layers or protective gear might make the arms too short. Particularly, the elbow flex area will not fall in the correct place. The jacket has functional lace up pleats on the sides and a belt, its delivered with these fully released, if ordering a size up and you wish for a trimmer fit in the mid-section, you can take out quite a bit of slack by tightening the laces and belt. Danial Smart offers a full line of outstanding gear. The designs are well thought out, work for the rider and are very reasonably priced. This jacket is sure to please. Read more

They don't make many jackets like this anymore, this would easily last a lifetime, maybe two, with care. This jacket needs to be broken-in a lot in order to become pliable. The full grain leather is very thick, heavy, and stiff. I would recommend sizing up 2 sizes if you actually need to zip this up, and bend and move around. The size chart is accurate but given the stiffness you will want a ton of slack and then will still need to break-in the leather regardless. I am 5'3" and have a 38" chest and hip, I got the XS and I feel like it would better suit someone who is a size 4 or smaller jacket size normally. It fits my arms and shoulders but feels tighter than it is. It hits a little lower on my hip than I would like but I am short so that is a typical issue with this cut. The leather quality is very high and you would be well protected against the elements. There is a extra liner you can zip out if you'd prefer. Lots of small pockets in the front suitable for things like lighter, small folding knife, small wallet. The inner concealed carry pockets (on both sides to suit righties and lefties) is indeed deep and easy to access, big size to allow you to carry anything from a large phone, a myriad of larger weapons, big and thick wallet. Even more zippers in the main liner where you could stash things between the leather and the liner, perhaps papers. The jacket has many details and I can see the company is thoughtful in their design. If what you are looking for is a very tough jacket, this is a good choice. If you are more interested in the fashionable look of a motorcycle jacket, you may prefer something lighter in weight than this one. Read more

I got this for my wife, and she likes it however, it runs small, even using their measuring guide. She went up a size from her normal based on the fitment guide and is still tight. Hopefully, it will break in. It is very well made and looks great. It came extremely well-packed, and well-protected. It comes with extra parts to replace a snap. I will update as it's worn and breaks in. Read more
