  Good, but not great |
By Sabrina from Burke, VA
Pros: Good quality leather, snaps/zippers seem like they'll hold up well. Has curves to it, definitely can tell it's a female jacket. Perforated leather panels under the arms lend flexibility to the otherwise pretty stiff jacket.
Cons: The fit. I had to order a 2XL which meant I had to return the large and extra large. I'm 5'6" and 165lbs. Ordering the 2XL means that the jacket now fits ok in the chest (I'm a C cup), but the sleeves are too long. I may end up paying big money to have them shortened. Also beware, the "liner" isn't truly a liner, it's a vest. The sleeves do not have the extra lining. There neck is a little interesting as well. There are NO chest pockets for alpinestars chest armor. There is also no way to replace the shoulder or elbow "padding". Since the sleeves are too long, the padding isn't in exactly the right place for me, but I'll just have to deal with it. The back padding is replaceable, and I put in the alpinestars rated back protector, which makes the chest tighter. There is very little on this jacket that's reflective. The piping around the edges is, but that doesn't help much. There are 2 small pockets in the vest, and 1 zippered pocket in the actual jacket.
Overall, I wish I would have spent the extra money for the Stella NYC, which is a significantly nicer jacket.
