I was reluctant to buy an expensive jacket with no reviews but I really liked the style of this online and figured if I hate it, I can return it. Don’t get me wrong, I like leather but I’m currently over-it. Anyway, this thing is so cool. It’s insanely well made and fits to perfection. It checks all the boxes for me.
1. Vents. I’m about to take a ride down Route 66 in July. I need protection but I also need to cool off.
2. Double zipper. I am a woman with hips and thighs and I hate feeling constricted. So being able to let out that bottom zipper while I’m riding is a big deal.
3. Protection. This isn’t just denim. This has Kevlar in it. If I slide, I really wanna keep my skin.
4. Least important but still important (cuz I’m vain). This jacket is sexy with a capital “X”. I love the way it looks on. Great color and feel.
It’s true to size. But you have to use their size chart. Measure yourself and don’t go off other clothes/jackets. Their size chart is accurate to their clothes.
I wear a size 12 top and 14 bottoms. I got an XXL and it fits perfect. It’s pretty stiff but I’m assuming it’ll soften up over the riding season.
I’ve owned a lot of riding jackets over the years and this one is by far the best I’ve ever bought. Love FMC products though. Hope this helps someone else considering
