first you have to remember that this price for a leather riding jacket is insanely low. So you cant get upset at small things. Like the zippers do not work very smoothly. They are a knockoff brand VKK zipper and not a real YKK Zipper so they are very rough in operation, I am hoping that lots of zipping and unzipping will smooth them out, I ran a wax candle down them to smooth them out some and had to remove a tooth on the main zipper to get it to zip right.

The leather is very thick, makes the jacket heavy. This makes it warm. There are no vents so if it's warmer than 70 outside you will roast in it, a ride home in 56 degree weather at 70mph I was very comfortable zipped up and wearing gloves.

I would have paid an extra $20.00 for the jacket if it had high quality zippers on it and an extra $10.00 for a couple of vents near the armpits.

Other than that, for a el-cheapo leather motorcycle jacket that if I ruin it or get it wet I will not care is great. Just watch the zippers and be very careful with them and it should last you at least a season.

One more thing. I measured and upsized per the sellers reccomendation. but I'm the typical american with a gut, so I upsized 1 more time and the jacket came out perfect with enough room inside for me to wear a sweatshirt on cold days.

The product was just as expected. Heavy leather, and just as the picture displays. So no worries there. I would buy from them again!

You can't beat this jacket for the money. It's definitely nicer than I expected. It's very heavy, thick feeling leather but soft to the touch. I've seen other jackets that sell for few hundred dollars more and they didn't seem any nicer. I would definitely buy another and would buy from this seller; probably will as my teenage boys really like it and they each want one.

When I decided to buy this leather jacket, I knew it might be a mistake, because I'm a firm believer in the saying: You get what you pay for. But my curiosity got the best of me. When I 1st pulled the leather coat out of its box, I was initially pleasantly surprised. Thick leather, good inlining, and good enough quality zippers. The only problem was the stifness of the leather. Also, I was weary of the durability aspect of this coat, and only time would tell. Well, after only a month of having it, one stitch on the arm came loose, causing a pretty wide opening. No problem, I just got it sewn for 10$. Then, the inlining started ripping in the left under-arm part. The leather is still stiff, even if I wore it many times and oiled it with Mink oil. And lastly, the inner stuffing has been constantly coming out in strands since the beginning. In fact, I can't even wear the jacket with short sleeves because it itches too much. Also, seeing more stitches, here and there, beginning to get looser and looser, I know that this coat will never even last 6 months. Before making my purchase, I did read all of the reviews related to this item, and almost everyone said they liked it. But here's the real important element: All of those reviews were writen soon after receiving the jacket. This thing doesn't pass the test of time. If it's so inexpensive, it is because it's of poor quality. It is very unfortunate, because the leather is indeed thick and sturdy, but it's assembly is more than poor. Having all of these issues, you either keep on getting the stitches fixed and replace the inlining, or you just trash the thing. But the sad part is to imagine that an animal was killed to make such a bad product that ends up in the garbage. To Jafrum I say, why not make the stitchings more sturdy, and make a more lasting inlining, even if it would make the coat cost a little more. But all that aside, once again, trust the ever so old tried and true phrase: You do get what you pay for. And this is another great example of it. I would have prefered a thinner leather jacket, but with better stitches and inlining, instead of a thick one that falls apart. Needless to say, don't wear this if you're gonna use it biking.

I just got the jacket last week. I had read all the reviews so I knew it wasn't a top of the line premium jacket. But, still for the money, it's hard to beat. It looks good and all the zippers worked fine. It is not as stiff as I was expecting based on reviews I had read. There was a mis-stitch in the belt but it's not a big deal.

I normally wear a 46/47 so based on the guide ordered the 48. I am short frame with larger chest/shoulders and average waist 38. It is a little tight in the arms but I can still move comfortably without it being too tight when I reach across my body. It is a short jacket and I can see where it might be too short for the bigger/taller guys, but fits me fine.

Yes, it is thick and heavy which is good since I live in central Ohio and much of our riding season can be quite chilly. Although I will not be getting my bike out for at least another month (maybe 2), I have started wearing the jacket to break it in. I intend to give it good coating of mink oil to help soften it up and improved water-resistance.

I like that the pockets easy to access and are functional, meaning they are deep enough that you can actually put things in them.

This jacket was purchased for my grandson as a Christmas gift and he loves it.

I am very impressed with this jacket.It looks and feels great and seems to be of good quality. I made the mistake of ordering one 2 sizes larger instead of the 1 size larger that Jafrum suggests. I had to return it. (Their refund time takes longer than I expected). When I received the correct size it fit great. Measure yourself and order the jacket by Jafrum's suggestions and it should fit great. I highly recommend their jackets and vests.

This jacket is everything you want, it is durable,warm and looks great. You will king of the hogs when you got this baby on.

This jacket is really good quality leather is very thick and zip are solid. you can buy without hesitation (if you are European, even with shipping the purchase price remains the best)

I was after a sturdy bike jacket and this is it. Good thickness leather and solid zippers. Good product at a good price. I liked it so much I bought one for my son.
