ALPHA CYCLE GEAR BREATHABLE BIKERS RIDING PROTECTION MOTORCYCLE JACKET MESH CE ARMORED (BLUE MOON, SMALL)

Excellent, fit is spot on, looks very nice. seems to be a quality jacket. I purchased this for kart racing, and I believe it will be exactly what I wanted. I'm 5'6" & 145 lb..the small fits just right. The chest has mesh areas which should provide much needed ventilation during the summer. This would be a nice summer motorcycle jacket as well, which is its intended purpose.

So, I finally bought two riding jackets to replace the hoodies I used to wear while riding - this one for summer and a HWK long-style one for cooler weather. I tried a HWK mesh jacket in 2XL last year, and had to return it because it was way too small, given that I have a gut that just won't leave the premises... But, it was also not long enough at the waist for this 6'1" guy. Other reviews of this jacket seemed to suggest they have the same sizing problems as the HWKs do (sized for Asians, regardless of their claims to the contrary), so I got this in a 3XL, and it fits very well! I was skeptical of how well air would pass through this material, but it's really very good at that - I can even feel the wind on my back! Which I suppose makes sense, cuz if it can get through the front it's gotta go somewhere, eh? Not so great as far as pocket room or numbers of pockets, but if they had larger pockets that would block more air from flowing though it I guess. I can live with that. Comfortable neck, comfortable all around. My only criticism is that the Velcro cuffs are a bit lame, and to get them tight around my wrists there's a bit of flap overhang. But for the price you just can't beat this jacket. I got the day-glo yellow/green one for better visibility, and I think it looks pretty durn cool. 😎 PS: while it's not the subject of this review, I wanted to mention that I got that long-style HWK 3-season jacket in a 2XL because of other reviews saying they were more true to size than their short waist ones, and it does indeed also fit great, plus it covers about half my back pants pockets when standing, which is great for cooler weather. I love em both.

I bought this as a test and alternative for summer ride. Gotta say it actually decent! Pro: + Size fit is actually fit well. + Breathability is there! + Price is cheap compared to quality. Con: - The pad is not aligned very well, i quickly found out the shoulder pad is very very misaligned and cause discomfort. - It actually fairly hot - It not waterproof - Could use 2 more pocket on the chest side.

Bought this for summer rides for the kids to wear, also fits my wife and they all take turns wearing it after we wash it. It is a nice coat for the price.

I can't believe this isn't more expensive. The quality is great, styling (subjective) is great, good reflectivity, nice fabric. It's what they call 'asian cordura" whatever that means. But I like the fabric. Wear the jacket everywhere for a week and it'll conform to your shape quickly enough and feel like a second skin. Pockets everywhere, perfect for phone inside, with good protection. You can remove the padding/protective inserts for added versatility if you don't need them. As it claims and expected it's not a warm jacket. It's not meant to be. It's breathable. For cold days I wear a lightweight wind jacket under. This then makes it very warm. For warm days it's great with just a T-shirt under. No idea about water resistance because it doesn't ever rain in California :)

Extremely great and affordable protection ! I wore this jacket for 1st time on a ride yesterday and I was very shocked how cool it was at stops. I live in Southeast Louisiana where it's 98% humidity along with 98f plus temperatures I felt very comfortable.Jacket is a little stiff ,to be expected, due to padding which I feel over time will break in. As far as water resistance I can't give feedback due to not experiencing in rain but the way jacket is designed for warm weather I wouldn't expect it to be . Padding is thick which I feel comfort of being protected.Jacket runs a little small so order a size larger.Does have adjustable velcro to make fine adjustments as needed for comfort. Would purchase again

The reviews said this runs tight. I am a big guy, 5'11" 250 pounds with too much of it in my gut. I normally wear a 3x in shirts and they aren't tight. I took the advice and ordered in 4xl. This would not even zip up. I almost tore the jacket trying. I don't know what 4x guys they designed this for but unless your weight is all in your arms and shoulders you should only order the 4x if you normally take a 2x. The good news is this looked like a nice made jacket. Felt good the stitching. Material and colors were all good. Too bad they do not sell a 5xl. This is Merica, I'm big but by no means huge there are many many people bigger than me, this shouldn't be the largest size you have. 1 star off because of size and 1 star off because they delivered late..... again

Very happy with this jacket, the fit is great, the armor included is comfortable not super stiff. Fits like a glove, I have a 46in chest, 27 inch back length and 26in sleeve. Wish the cuffs were zipper and velcro instead of just velcro. It’s super breathable, you get the temp of the air with out the beating of the wind. Was very pleased. And this price point is unbelievable. (UPDATE) So I loved my blue one so much I wanted the high-viz yellow! Came in and the mesh liner in the sleeve was sown in twisted so literally couldn’t put your hand through the sleeve. Unbelievable! And it was the last one so I can’t even get it replaced. 😡😡😡
