Pros: This is quite a heavy jacket with the armor and lining. I rode with it in the rain and it kept me warm and dry. Only my cuffs got wet. My pants were soaked but that was to be expected since I didn't have rain gear. All things considered, it did a great job protecting me from the elements. The armor is sturdy and for a multi-season jacket it's a great value.
Cons: I wish the collar were higher but then it wouldn't work so well for summer riding.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: When I called and described my build they recommended the medium over the large I planned to get. It fits perfectly.
I would definitely recommend this jacket to anyone that is looking for a jacket they can wear mostly year round. The fact that it is convertable is a huge advantage over many others. My money was well spent.

Excellent Jacket
By Brian from Temple Hills, MD
Pros: This jacket is heavy! It's my first motorcyle jacket but I feel like I am wearing a suite of amor. It seems very durable and has the ability to be stripped down for less weight.
It looks great and I dare say better in person than in the photos.
Cons: I can't say anything negative about the jacket at this moment.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: Customer service rep. was able to recommend the right size for my small frame and long arms.

Great jakcet
By Anonymous from Santa Rosa,CA
Cons: The olny thing I wish were different is I wish the 'hook' side of the velcro for the front flap was on the flap side and not the jacket side. I seem to always be getting my cuff velcro stuck to the front. Seems kind of weird I know....
Comments: I didn't find the zippers to be as much of an issue as some of the other people. There are a lot of them because you're basically unzipping the whole outer shell, but I didn't find it... (Read the rest of this review)

Almost Waterproof
By Charles from Lexington, KY
Pros: Windproof, warm in winter. In mesh mode the jacket gets good ventilation. The jacket is for the most part waterproof.
Cons: The biggest problem I had with the jacket is that although the jacket is waterproof, water always found its way to where the top layer zips to the mesh layer. Even in a light misting, the cuffs ended up soaking wet. This happened even when I was wearing gauntlet rain gloves. I think the design of the jacket allowed water to trickle down into the zipper where it collected. This is not good when the temp is just above freezing.
Also, I got the jacket in summer and rode all over using the mesh layer only. When it did turn cold and I zipped the top layer on I found that the sun had lightly faded the exposed fabric - cuffs and shoulder area.
Comments: This jacket will not be making any of the long distance trips because of the water-filled cuffs. I thought by buying this jacket I would only have to take one jacket on trips into mountainous areas... (Read the rest of this review)

2 months and it is falling apart!
By Craig from Yelm, WA
Pros: Very flexible in terms of conditions that this coat is designed for. You can use it all year long.... in theory.
Cons: If this coat could last a whole year you could use it all year long. After 1 month and 2 weeks of riding this coat has began to fall apart. On the right shoulder the seem separated 5 inches and now that it is two weeks later it is up to 6 inches. Other threading holding the seems together on this coat are beginning to fray. Keep in mind this coat has never been through a washing and nor has it had any kind of accident. This is just under normal use.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Comments: Being that this is a warranty issue I used the Tourmaster website twice to contact the company and heard nothing back. So I contacted my original retail store whom has tried to contact them 3... (Read the rest of this review)
