This jacket is true to its description as a 3 season jacket. Outer shell is wind and water proof. Vented for warmer weather, removable lining for when it's cooler. I was prepared to order a little larger than I normally would have from other comments concerning the fit. It's true that it is a waist length jacket and no more, so the bottom of the jacket comes down no further than belt level. I ride a Vanderhall autocycle (3 wheeler) so this works for me. Covers down to the waist but no extra fabric coming lower than that which would just be in my way. Lots of pockets, ruggedly built but some of the stitching for linings etc. are somewhat suspect. Would purchase again. Read more
Fits pretty well, a little big in the wrists but I’m also a skinny dude, so there’s that. Comfy and the mesh allows great air flow. It’s been pretty hot here in Huntsville, Al and even with the jacket on the venting is on point. I’ll be ready for the winter with the inner shell put back in. Read more
I needed a jacket for myself and my son (who is a first time rider) so I'm looking for a quality jacket with plenty of protection. A Lot of jackets out there that claim excellent protection at all different prices. Saw this one and read the Sizing opinions which concerned me, and I was right. I'm 5'11", 215 so I ordered a 2x. Out of the box it was really really nice. You can feel the quality, heavy, but not to heavy and the material is great. Shoulder, elbow and your entire back pads. I looked at the jacket and said "yeah, to small". I put it on and it felt great, not cheap. Saw that it was a little snug but I proceeded to inspect. Pockets are great, zippers good and there's 4 adjustable straps, 2 sleeve, 2 waist. I then proceeded to remove the liner which turned into a project. My advice is to remember or take a pic of how the factory attached the line to the sleeves. There's 2 buttons on the jacket and 2 small elastics on the liner. Took the liner out and found that there was a little more room, but not much more which made my decision to go up one size even harder. It is shorter on the waist but it's supposed to be, if you ride, you know that. Also, once the season is in, you will not be using the liner so consider that. (unless your a die hard and ride until the 1st snowfall) Putting the liner back in was the hassle with the button/elastic issue but I did it my way. My son wears L and he put on this 2XL and it fit him. A little big, but it fit. So now we sat there and are trying to decide. This AM, I ordered the 3X for myself and I'm going to see what that's like. I will update. I will say that this is NOT a cheaply made jacket, it is of very good quality and I will have no issue wearing this, it's just getting the correct size. The price is fantastic for a quality jacket like this. I will update when I receive the 3X Update: Gave the XL to my son who's a L and ordered the 3X for myself. 2 Friends saw the jacket and also purchased because of the quality and comfort. Several rides, hands cold, legs cold, chest stayed warm. I highly recommend this jacket Read more

I Ordered the next size larger for a good fit. Very good everyday ride jacket for the price. I'm riding without the liner in sunny 70s Spring weather, kept my chest cool and the arms free of wind. I haven't tried riding with the liner zipped in. I've attached a few photos, (1) Outside the jacket, has 2 zipper side pockets. Inside the jacket, right side has a zipper pouch on the inside coat edge to carry larger items or a gun. It also has a zipper across the lower back to attach to pants. All zippers appear to be of good quality, not the cheap small flimsy kind. (2) Inside the liner- on the left side you will find 2 small loops to carry pens or maybe a pen light next to a velcro pocket to hold cell phone. All armor pads appear to be of good thick quality for protection. UPDATE: The liner has a defective cheap zipper liner. I took the coat liner out for summertime. I recently zipped the liner back in for Fall cool weather. Rode bike one day 150 mile trip, when I got home the inner liner had separated from the jacket. So I zipped the liner back in, and notice the whole zipper liner pulled apart very easy with slight tension. Obvious very cheap zipper for the liner. The coat is useless for winter weather without a liner. I sent a notice to the dealer about the defective problem and I never got a response back from them. So I switched my rating from a five star to a one star for defective product and poor customer service. Read more
5'8" 195lbs and I bought a large. The fit is perfect. Seems a bit short in the front but I believe that is the fit in every size. Warmer than I expected with the liner in and heavier that I thought it would be. Haven't ridden it yet so I can't speak to breathability, but it's mesh so I would assume it will flow air. The reflectors are dark grey but the camera makes them look white, they reflect very well. All in all very satisfied! Read more
This jacket does not fit me well. I am a big dude (6'4 300 pounds) so I am used to things being tight. I typically wear a 2X size, so I ordered the 6X hoping for a little bit of wiggle room. I can barely zip the jacket, and it isn't long enough to reach the belt line. Now before the recommendations for diet come in I have a 42 inch waist. I really never expected a 6X to be tight. Now I've put a couple hundred miles on the bike with this jacket. Other than being too small, I really like it. It does exactly what I want it to do (other than letting me put anything in the pocket). I would 100% order it again if it fit. I just don't believe that make it bigger than the 6X. I'll have to shell out some more money and get a name brand 2X. Read more
