| Overall Really Nice |
By Tristram from Hartland, VT
Pros: Low key - All black, no big flashy logos or bright colors. I personally prefer the time when labels were inside of clothes and not plaster on the outside of them.
Quality - Seems to me high quality. A*s has a reputation to maintain and I think this jacket does a good job of that. I am a bit disappointed in the liner. I feel like I will end up ripping that at some point. It is really thin plastic a little heavier then a construction trash bag. It just seems like they could have spent a little more on that.
Armor - Seems like it fits everywhere it needs to and will offer me substantial protection in a get off. I hope to never test it but I am happy it is there.
Air Flow - It is winter right now and I am in VT so I have not been out to test it out. I bought this because I am moving to New Orleans and wanted a jacket that would flow well. I believe this is that jacket. The perforations are all over it so I should get some good flow.
I would recommend to others looking for a jacket
Cons: The liner is a little thin. I think that they could have done a better job with that, BUT it is not the reason I bought this. I really want it for flow and have no plans on wearing it when it gets cooler out and when it is raining. This being said I tend to think of the liner as just being gravy. It is basically a just in case.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: I wear a 40L in a business suit but for some reason that is a 44 in leather jackets. I knew this from past experience and then was reminded my the youtube videos of sportbiketrackgear.com. I recommend finding somewhere local to try on leather motorcycle jackets before just buying.
