Better Than Expected
Given the low price, I had very low expectations for the quality of this jacket. However, when it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the weight and robustness. It is a serious riding jacket! The cordura-like outer shell is heavy duty, abraision-resistent. The protective shoulder, elbow, and back panels are firm rubber for impact and skid protection. The removable inner liner makes it a decent cold-weather jacket (which I don't need), and once removed, the outer shell is still sturdy but lighter for warm weather riding. I'm impressed. (I'm 6'2", 180 lbs, and the medium fit well. It is a bit wide but long enough in the arms.)

Breathable and Protective
Surprisingly comfortable, very well padded with pads that don't look or feel bulky and an amazing price point. Bought the matching pants, amazing combo! Would highly recommend. Haven't tested the waterproof part yet but feels like it should be!

Good for warm weather.
I’ve only used it in 80-85°f weather so far. I took out the line which is easy. I keep all the zippered vents open. It’s very comfortable when movie. I get hot quickly while stopped but that’s to be expected in the heat, wearing black, and leather gloves, long pants, and boots. I haven’t been caught in the rain with it yet so idk how dry it will keep you. The fit is okay. I got a large at 5’11” 160lbs. It’s a little bulky in the torso and arms. Arms are easily adjustable when I’ll probably value more in the spring and fall. Sleeve length and length is n torso is good. Pockets could be a little larger but they are doable. The phone pocket in the removable liner will only fit small thin phones. It’s not gonna fit most newer phones but there’s other pockets that will. Not a problem it’s just odd that it’s labeled for a phone and won’t fit most phones on the market today. All in all it’s fine for the money and likely equals the quality of most other polyester jackets in the $50-120 range. Unless you want to spend a lot more or get leather I’d recommend it.

Great Jacket at a Great Price
For this price, I never expected to find such a high-quality, stylish motorcycle jacket! It exceeds expectations with its durable material, ample pockets for storage, and a removable thermal layer, making it suitable for riding in multiple seasons. If you're in the market for a new riding jacket, this one is definitely worth a try!

Not bad at all for what it is.
Let's be honest here. Yes, it doesn't cost a lot. It ain't no $900 Track Suit.But honestly, I am a bit surprised how well it functions and the features..Its got a removeable liner, pocket spaces, vents you can open or close, removeable/replaceable armor. fits right..It checks all the boxes.. Haven't gone down with one on, but A) the goal is not to and B) Somethin' is better than nothin'

Nice
Quality jacket for the price. Size… if you’re liking it a bit looser order a size larger. (L to XL) I ordered a XL, but returned it because it was HUGE! The L was a comfortable fit, but technically a Medium would have probably been more of a perfect fit. Overall, a great looking jacket with quality material.

Excellent bang for your buck
Fits well, lots of adjustability. Not too hot, not too warm either but a decent middle ground with padding.

Does the job
Cons: Sizing (the Large is XL), and the red is lighter than I expected based on the photos. Provided armor feels a little awkward.Pros: Keeps me dry when it rains and warm at 28 degrees. Better than my leather jacket.

Beautiful Jacket.
I WILL USE A COMPARISON BETWEEN THIS JACKET AND MY JOE KOOL JACKET.Fashion wise, it is a beautiful coat. Get compliments on the colour scheme too.I love the Velcro neck tab on the outside of the jacket and not on the liner. (My Joe Kool jacket has a snap on the tab of the liner. Very frustrating to use)With the armour in, it is much lighter than my Joe Kook jacket. (The Joe Kool jacket is very heavy with the armour in.)The quilted liner is excellent. (My Joe Kool jacket has a plain vinyl liner which may block the wind but does not keep you warm nor does it breath so you freeze & sweat when it is in.)Cons: The main zipper is tough to undo and redo. (this could simply be because it is brand new)Lots of room on the waist & chest but, the belly is tight. (they said to order one size bigger if you are big. Normally I take a 2X and ordered a 3X. The belly is still tight but lots of room on the chest and waist.)When you move your arms forward as to reach the handlebars, the shoulders are tight. (this just could be because it is new and needs to be broken in - I will update on this.)The pocket for a cell phone is too small. I cannot fit my Samsung A50 in the pocket even when the case is removed.There is no extra snap to hang your keys or spare keys inside the jacket. (My Joe Kool motorcycle jacket has this feature, and it comes in handy when going shopping and you can hang your keys inside your jacket.)Not sure if I will be able to wear it in July or August because there are only two vents on the chest for airflow. (My Joe Kool is mesh. When the liner is out, air goes right through the jacket.)It may work out to be strictly a spring, fall, and winter jacket. (I will update this when July and August roll around in 2024)Conclusion: Other than the fit being disappointing, I am generally happy with the coat. It is a beautiful coat and already getting lots of compliments on its looks.I just have to decide if I should exchange it for a 4X or wait to see if the material gives with wear.UPDATE ON THE FIT: It did not take long for the fit to stretch out. After one ride on the bike the shoulders and back stretched out to a good fit. In addition, it was -13 degrees with the wind chill. You add in the added wind chill from being on the bike going down the road, and you realize just how warm this jacket is. And the thing I loved the most about the jacket was the Velcro tab on the outside of the jacket. It completely blocked any cold wind going down your neck. Great jacket. Highly recommend.

Great fit and it matches my bike perfectly plus I am an Alpha so it's a fitting name
Very good jacket for a fair non bloated price. It's going to be helpful with the protection,it's not the best safety gear but it's equal to pricing and if you need more protection you can still afford to upgrade to better. It fits well, 6'1 170-180lbs ordered size small and it fits like a glove. It doesn't get too hot even in 30°c weather especially with the removal thermal liner taken out. Can't say anything to rain proof but I'll find out. Pockets are useful except the phone one is for small older style phones but that's nothing to sweat it has other pockets that will hold it. Has all the adjustment sizing options to tighten or loosen. Great job ALPHA you do a fine job on affordable nice jackets 👍🏻.
