a lot of jacket for the money
I'm 5'8" 230 stocky. PROS. Beautiful jacket for the money not a better buy on Amazon in my opinion. It was one of the few in this style that was "free returns with prime." That decided it for me. Hi viz, is just what it says, super bright! im usually a 2x. ordered a 3x. (per Amazon's suggestion). very snug before removing back armor. what good is mesh for cooling when you have a 1/2 of rubber laying across your back. But I like the fact that there are still small pads that would probably do good to prevent road rash in event of a fall. Warm enough with liner in 55 degree weather in upstate, NY. Overall this is a keeper. I feel safe and seen in this jacket, and it didnt break the bank CONS- the two huge front pockets (not mesh), block air flow. I can sew, so I will downsize both. Also, the arms are a mix of textile and mesh. but the solid textile is on the top where the air is supposed to flow, should be the other way around. Also, I have short arms 34/35 dress shirt. sleeves are about 3" too long, But I find that if you undo the wrist zipper, you can roll the sleeves back then use the snaps to snap them. Read more
