This is a comfortable stylish jacket. I love the fit and look of it when I wear it with my black Honda hoodie. It can definitely be used as a normal autumn jacket if you take the armour plates out. At first, I thought the arms were a bit short for me, but once I was wearing it out and sitting on my bike I realised it was just right. I tend to go for shirts that are slightly bigger where the sleeve reaches down halfway across the back of my hand. But this one ends right at my wrist bone joints. I've worn this out riding on my Rebel 1100 3 or 4 times now for 2~4 hour long rides in windy autumn weather with intermittent bursts of rain. I found as long as the rain isn't too heavy and the temperature is above around 10°c the jacket did great. As soon as mine arrived I soaked it in fabsil water repellent spray and let it dry out overnight. I recommend this as a top tip for anyone in rain-prone areas that can easily get stuck in sporadic bursts of rain whilst out riding (such as the UK). The overall fit in the chest and shoulders was great for my size and it keeps out the wind and light rain. Due to treating mine with extra water repellent, no water penetrated the fabric significantly when riding at speeds of 50~60mph in the rain. I found the droplets just beaded off, wicking away with the wind. Highly recommend this jacket for all season Cruiser riders like myself. 👍

Fits well, good armour and nice and cool on hot days. Doubles as a casual jacket as well. I'm happy.

Great looking shirt.. quality manufacture from a robust material. The body armour is great and hardly noticeable. Fits great with enough room for a sweatshirt under. Extremely pleased !!

Really good quality summer bike jacket. Lightweight but has kevlar lining and mesh and ce armour on shoulders back and elbows. Very well made , good zip and poppers. Nice and cool for hot days. I got 4xl fits perfect with a bit of room where I normally would get 3xl.. 1 size up gives you room to fit layers beneath if needed. Very good jacket.
