Pros: Good protection (nice pads and thick leather), good design, mostly quite comfortable. Not too hot for where I ride (as long as I'm not sitting at a red light).
Cons: Chafes a bit around the neck. There is a soft rim (non-leather) on the neck, but it is too small to help. I think the leather at the neck might soften up though with use.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: I'm 5'9" regular build and a size 52 fits well, with or without icon field armor underneath. Also, I got the black version of the jacket.
Overall I am very happy with this jacket. I've tried on a lot of jackets lately, and it was difficult for me to find a jacket that provided good protection (both pads and thick leather), would not be too hot, and looked good. This jacket meets all my criteria.
