Crusader Men's Motorcycle Leather Jacket

The leather is great, very soft and supple out of the box. The construction seems to be great quality. The color is spot on from the pictures. The fit is a bit tighter than the sizing chart measurements indicate, even with no armor and especially with the liner. The holster pockets are a convenient addition, though they could use a bit of tweaking. They work a bit better just stuffing it down into the corner- less of an Imprint and trying to get the muzzle into the elastic requires flagging yourself in the ribs. The vents on the back are huge, the front not so much, but they seem well placed for good air movement when.

Overall, I like the jacket. Even with the armor in place it’s fairly comfortable, although snug. If you prefer a more relaxed-fitting jacket get a size up.

This is a great looking jacket! The darker brown is awesome. I worked real hard to get the sizing right and it is tighter than I was looking for. I'm 6'3" 225lbs. I have a LG vest from FirstMFG that is pretty snug so I measured and thought that the XL would be right. Not sure if the liner takes up space enough to make it like a LG+? But that's how it fits. I was hoping for enough room to put things in the chest pockets without them printing through. Oh, well I could use to lose a few pounds.

Unfortunately, the first time wearing the jacket my watch caught the liner and tore one of the snap bands out of the stitching. Wasn't worth sending back for a 15 minute job with needle and thread so I fixed it myself. Would hope for more for this price. Not a major issue since I'm not afraid to fix my own stuff. But I would've liked a consolation coupon or credit. Only option is to send it back for warranty. That's probably $30-40 since I'm on the other side of the country.

Overall, I really like FirstMFG products and hope this is just a rare hiccup. I would rate a 4 star with the sizing being more of a me problem. But I have to take a star for having to repair it after the first day. Even if it's a minor one.
