i am 5'10 215 and a LARGE FITS ME PERFECTLY. I Like how the arms and overall length are shorter than the last jacket I had since when riding the last thing you want is a baggy Jacket that is too long.

This Jacket Saved my Body from any broken bones in a 45 mile an hour crash when a woman ran a light and I hit the Truck of her car and Flew over the car and landed about 9 feet away on the asphalt very hard! I was a bit sore on my right side for a few days but thanks to this jacket I had NO ROADRASH OR SCRAPES on my body.....! The best part is the fact that after all this, The jacket is still in almost New condition and did not rip or tear at all! Buy this Jacket if you are looking for Amazing Looks, Feel, Quality and Comfort! I live in PHX and it can get hot but the 6 vents sure to help. With the insert in you stay very warm on cold cold night Rides at 80 MPH Thank You Viking Cycle! My wife and kids are very grateful

I was on the fence about buying this jacket and after seeing a couple YouTube videos I decided to get it. It just came today and I already love this jacket. I thought it would be a thick jacket but it is very thin and hugs the body when zipped up.

One thing that truly amazed me is that this jacket is waterproof, I could turn my sink on full blast and the water will just roll off the jacket and stay completely dry. The main pockets are also huge, I put my 7 inch tablet in there and it doesn't even fill half the pocket. It also has a small pocket big enough for gum or something similar sized on each forearm. There is also one pocket under the Velcro patch on the left arm that is decently sized enough (about 7 or 8 inches).

Also the 4 by 4 inch Velcro Patches are awesome, I'm rocking the Diamond Dogs Velcro patch (Which if you do not know what that is, it's from a game called Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain.)

I looked at some other jackets but they were either to expensive (Astro Flak Jacket $300) or they were to bulky (Rotcho Special Ops Soft shell jacket which is the bigger version of this jacket.)

Honestly the only negative for me is that this jacket does make some noise when you move around. I'm used to cotton jackets which are silent. It's not really a big problem as I don't even notice the noise that much.

All I can say is I am supremely happy with this jacket.  I have ridden on sub 30 degree days and felt nice and cozy in this jacket.  Mind you I was also wearing a short sleeve shirt under it.  The only down fall is, if you are a 3x it is a little tight around the neck when fully zipped.

It has a hood. It zips up. It comes in other cool colors like: white, orange, yellow, green, and blue. They all look really nice, so it was hard to choose just one, but pink is definitely my favorite color and this jacket did not disappoint. There are elastic at the cuffs which I think is nice. The two hand pockets are zippered (I love that, so I can keep chap stick and items in there without them falling out). This windproof, water repellent jacket is SPF 50+ and dries quickly. Ive worn this out in the Florida weather. It works great for me because sometimes Florida has a breeze, but youll still get burnt. This jacket keeps me warm, protects my skin from burning, but its light enough where I can have it on and not sweat. Sometimes I come into these dilemmas where my jackets are too thick and its too hot to wear them, but without a jacket Im cold. This has solved that dilemma. This is very thin. Its almost paper thin. So keep that in mind! It folds up small and can be kept in your purse, car, emergency kit, etc. I highly recommend this and think its very nice for the asking price. Sample was provided at no cost for testing and reviewing purposes.

DAM!!!!  Now that that's out of my system, onto the review.  I am what is referred to as rare creature in the wild know as "El cheapo" but this was one of those rare times I threw down for something that seemed to be in the right price range and was not disappointed.  The outer material of this jacket is made of that stuff that repels rain and keeps it from soaking into your jacket which is handy in both snowy weather and if you live in areas with heavy rain.  It tightens up along the bottom to keep wind from coming up the jacket, as well as along the wrist to keep air out.  The strap around the neck is perfect and keeps out mother nature making your whole body warm.  The wrist straps are adjustable so if you need them tighter or want them loose, its up to you.  One thing to be aware of, if you work in any type of environment where you deal with sharp objects, you may want to think twice as the outer material of this jacket is wonderful for repelling, it can easily tear or be cut if it was caught on.  If you just want something to keep you warm and keep out the cold, whether you need it for your commute or just to traverse the cold seasons, its very good.

This is a review update. Yesterday 7-11-15 I was in a very critical accident on my road bike. Came out with broken ribs, scratches,cuts and a concussion. I wanted to share this with the makers of this helmet because this helmet saved my life. It ended up cracking the helmet in 4 different places on the helmet. If I wasn't wearing a helmet the accident could have been worse in my favor so I just wanted to shout out a big thank you to the maker/ seller of this helmet. I will being purchasing another one of these asap means I have a week long ride coming up in Iowa. (Ragbrai). Once again thank you Kuyou!

I purchased this for downhill mountain biking.  The last time I was out I had a crash that sent me onto some sharp rocks and my back slammed into a tree. My upper body had nothing. not a scratch or bruise.  Even with the tree slamming me in the back. When I hit, I remember it feeling like the force was distributed across my back. My lower body wasn't so lucky.  Scrapes, cuts and bruises everywhere.  My daughter actually asked me if I got mauled by a bear.  Can't say enough about how happy I am with this jacket. Saved me from experiencing a lot of pain.

One of the better riding jackets I have ever owned. I'm 6' 3, 230 and ordered a large at first according to the sizing chart. Felt the Large was too short for my frame and too restrictive in the shoulders. Ordered an XL and couldn't be happier! Took it out for a test ride this week through the mountains. Even though it was 100 degrees outside, as long as I was still moving, the vents on the jacket kept me at a comfortable temperature. Product seems sturdy and well made. Zippers are all reinforced, quality stitching all around. Love the number of pockets inside and outside this jacket. Makes storing my GPS, Cell Phone, Wallet, etc. very easy.

The padding and protective measures on the jacket are first rate. Would trust this 100 percent in a crash, though I hope I never have to.

I absolutely love this jacket.  It's taken me a long time to find the perfect jacket and this is it.  I rode all from STL to California and up the coast with this jacket and it was absolutely the best choice off all my jackets.  Cool on hot days and with the liner and thermal underneath it was great in the rocky mountain national park pass at 14K foot with snow and wind.  I rode California in 95+ weather and again great.  Yesterday I rode up and down the Mississippi river near STL...close to 300 miles, during the day, in mid July and again this jacket wasn't too hot.
My only frustration with this jacket, and it's picky, is the chest pocket zipper is too close to the main zipper and I would almost without fail grab the pocket zipper to up zip the jacket.

This garment saved me from some really nasty road race weather. 48 degrees, pouring rain, 25 mph and I wasn't shivering at the end. Everyone should own this.

Great jacket! I am 6"2 and #165 and this jacket in Medium Tall is a tight but good fit. I am a slender guy and it works well for summer riding into fall (with enough layers).
I ride primarily in the day in temperatures from 60-95F and this jacket is great with an additional thick sweatshirt for the lower temps. I have ridden in 35-45F days with long underwear and been comfortable as well. My speeds are usually between 55-65mph highway and 25-35mph in town.
The removable liner is great for hot days and the mesh holds all your body armor and slide protection.
The adjustable elbow straps allow for a secure fit of the elbow pads for better protection.
The only thing not adjustable are the shoulder pads, which to me is not an issue, since they manage to sit nicely on me and I feel it would protect me well in a slide.
The pockets on the outside are not waterproof, like, at all. Don't put your new registration papers in there on the way back from the post office on a warm spring drizzly day. You might stay dry, but your precious papers will not.

This is probably the best winter jacket I've ever had and I live in Toronto, Canada where we just had one of our coldest winters on record. It's super warm, wind and water proof, has a decent-ish hood, and a million pockets. Also has light-reflecty bits for when you're walking around in a snowstorm late at night in the dark around traffic. It looks great for how hardcore heavy a winter jacket it is, and it's durable as hell. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat, or as a gift.

Very Nice jacket - I like to ride long distances and the jacket is perfect for the cold weather. Very well insulated, stitched, and thick to keep you warm and for protection! The leather is soft and flexable to move your arms and not get in the way when bending your arms!

The jacket flows a lot of air as long as you are moving.

If you are stuck in traffic on a sunny day you'll find the black panels absorb a lot of solar heat.  This is my only complaint.

Fit and finish of the jacket are very good.  I was worried about the cuffs but they are a very loose fit on my medium size wrists - plenty of room for the gloves to tuck inside the cuff.  Armor and jacket are very comfortable when riding.  I think this is an excellent purchase, giving you peace of mind from having body armor, excellent ventilation, and no feeling of bugs crawling on your skin that you get when rising without a jacket.  One co-worker tried my jacket and was impressed enough to order his own.

Great jacket, this jacket flows air like no other mesh jacket I have ever had, I live in Florida where the heat and humidity outside will cook you like and egg on asphalt but this jacket flows so much air you forget you are actually wearing a jacket, the high viz yellow is great at keeping you visible whe you are riding and the textile ballistic mesh is perfect if you have an issue and need protection the protection, the elbow and shoulder armor is decent but the Back is just foam, I will be upgrading the armor in all 3 areas with Force Field armor for the best protection, 3/4 length in the back with plenty of pockets, quilted thermal liner for cold weather riding and a rain liner for wet weather make this the perfect jacket for riding in Southern climates.

I honestly believe that this jacket saved my life on a recent hiking trip. Everything was wet from rain storms, and the temperature began to drop rapidly. With the wind chill, temperatures were in the single digits on a early spring hike. I began exhibiting signs of hypothermia, and I still had 3 hours to go until I was back at the trailhead. I had no dry clothes except this jacket. I put it on, and within 10 minutes my core temperature rocketed up and I stopped shivering (for the right reasons.) I was still chilly from the 55 mph winds, but within 30 minutes I was comfortable and finished the hike with all fingers and toes. The warmth-for-weight ratio is almost unreal.
