    Perfect between seasons warm weather jacket

    This is a fine and quite robust jacket. Good materials. I'm 5'6" 232 pounds. The 3XL fits perfectly. On an 80 degree windy day it was perfect for a ride in the country. Lots of pockets for stuff. Terrific hand of the twill. This will see lots of service this year. The ride calls.

    Fine motorcycle wear

    This twill jacket is terrific, well made and is comfortable enough to wear and forget about when actually riding. It's fairly heavy as a textile jacket and feels good to wear even off the bike. D30 ghost armor from several sources fit the armor pockets nicely for even more comfort. Good stuff!

    Thank you for your detailed review! We’re glad to hear the twill jacket is comfortable and well-made, both on and off the bike. It’s great to know the armor fits perfectly and adds to your riding experience.

    It fits. Arms and chest measure about right but is short in the torso.

    … it will definitely be a lighter and better choice for a riding jacket this summer when it is 100 degrees out.

    I like the feel of it and the double sided CC pockets

    Runs small with armor

    First of all, it's super heavy duty and amazing quality. For a worn street jacket with no armor, it's a half size small in the body. For a motorcycle jacket, it runs absolutely small, like one size too small once you install the armor which takes up a good amount of space. It seems cut close to a fitted shape. If you're square chest and belly like myself, go up one size. So 4 out of 5 stars due to being too small once you add armor. Definitely not baggy and flappy though.

    Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review! We’re really glad to hear you’re impressed with the heavy-duty build and overall quality of the jacket. You’re absolutely right that this style is cut closer to a fitted profile, and adding armor can make the fit feel noticeably smaller, especially for riders with a fuller chest or midsection. Your sizing insight is extremely helpful and will be valuable for other customers when choosing their size. We appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear the jacket still delivers a clean, secure fit without excess bulk.
