| This jacket fits like it is supposed to... if you wear an XL, it will fit. The other reviews are probably looking for a more loose fitting jacket, this is a designed fitted jacket. I am 6' 1" and 200 pounds, this XL jacket fits perfectly and snug like it is supposed to. If you do want something a looser then yes you should get one size larger, but if you want it to fit like it is designed to fit, go for your normal size. |

| Jesse from AUSTIN, TX |
| When I initially ordered, I ordered up a size with an XL, as recommended by other reviewers. XL was actually a bit too bit for me, so I had to process an exchange. I'm a lean 6' 175lbs and L worked out okay. Jacket is wonderful and my exchange process went smoothly as well |

| This web site is the best kept secret that i just can't keep the secret, I've told every biker I know if you order once you'll stop looking elsewhere the quality is consistantly the highest as if you've went to every dealer and hand picked only the higest quality . Every item that i've ordered, from the chaps then boots and now the padded armored leather jacket has surpassed even the quality that I've seen at the MOTORCYCLE conventions that I had to pay an admission fee to get in not to mention parking amd the expense of hauling my 5000 lb vehicle (during winter weather) to every gas station on the way and back just to get a "Discount" and now I'm like a kid in a candy warehouse, everything in here is good and exceeds expectations. no guess work here just go on the internet "click" and start smiling awaiting FED EX. |

| For only $139, I can't imagine getting a better jacket. I work for a prominent and leading outdoor apparel manufacturing company and the bang for the
buck is through the roof.
LeatherUp shipped my jacket on the same day I placed the order. It took a day for the processing to finish and it was on the road.
The jacket fits me great...it looks totally custom. I am 5'7", 135lbs and have an athletic build. I think the other comments about fit are really just subjective to your body type. I couldn't imagine going to a bigger size. My waist is a 30-31 and there's several inches on the jacket to spare...even with the liner.
The quality of the material: the outer shell (leather, stretch neoprene/polyester panels) are great. Top notch. The zippers, well, for a multiple condition jacket, a little weak. I know they're going to leak when I finally get to ride it in the rain. The quilted liner is kind of thin but does the job fighting off the morning chill. The mesh lining is a little scratchy (like raw wool)...but I got used to it pretty quick. The ventilation is awesome. Wouldn't recommend it for Phoenix, AZ in the summer, but 90 degree days in the northwest is pretty doable.
One of the snap buttons broke when I first pulled on it - I called LeatherUp and their warranty reimbursement plan sounds exceptional and I plan on going that route. The armor padding is not what I thought it was, although I'm fine with them. Initally, when you see padding with the CE rating, you assume that it's made of hard plastic but instead they use a foam based, supple material.
All in all, a good value. |

| This is a great jacket for the money !!! I wear a 3x and and read the reviews ,so I bought the 5x and I can't be any happier. I am 6 foot and 240lbs. I liked it so much I bought another for my son in 2x he is only 14 these jackets run on the small side so order big and don't forget to leave room for additional body armor. |

| In a word...AWESOME! This Jacket is supple, has the armor in all the right places, looks stellar and best thing is it's cheaper than all the local jackets I've looked at a motorcycle shops, Etc. I have now made three separate purchase from Leatherup and have never been disappointed. What a great company to deal with. You will love this jacket...but be sure to buy a size larger. I got a 4X and it fits me like a glove. |

| Silvano Velez from Katy, TX |
| Just received it!!! What a great jacket. Few things to note though. Size is a little tighter than I expected. I usually wear Large, so I ordered it Large, however, with the lining on, it feels very tight. Now, I like the jacket so much that I don't want to exchange it, so I am crossing my fingers that the leather will stretch a little bit with use, since it is a little stiff. As far as the jacket construction is concerned, this thing is solid and just looks kickass!!! The sleeves have fabric on the front of them, which you can see in the picture, but can't really tell if it is fabric or different lit up leather. It is stretch fabric, but looks good on the jacket. The pic on here is a pretty good indication of what you are gonna get, and yes it is heavy! I will definitely buy from this site and the Xelement brand again. Very satisfied and surprised at such great quality. |

| If you don't like a snug fit you should order a size lager. I find it fits me well and I got my normal size. I like the style of it and what a nice coat for the cold days. Well worth the money! Thanks Leather Up. |

| Mark from HUBBARDSTON, MA |
| I'm 6' tall and 200lbs. I made the mistake of ignoring the reviews and ordering an XL. Sure enough it was too small. I exchanged it for the 2XL and the fit is great. This is a very nice looking and feeling jacket. I would highly recommend the jacket and the customer service of Leatherup during the exchange process. |

| First time ordering and got it right 1st time. Normally wear a xl and ordered one size up like the reviews say. Good fit. Even with the 2xl it is snug with a sweat shirt on underneath, but just right with light weight shirt. Good quality and well made. Shipping was fast, considering I'm in NJ. Now looking for one for the back seat driver! |

| Awesome jaket! I get complimets everytime I wear it out. Its comfy, stylish, warm, and it makes ya feel good. Great vents for warm days. I took all the pads out because its a little more comfy that way, but with them in you feel very safe. Zippers are very sturdy and I dont think they will ever strip out. Fits over the gloves nicely. I am trying to think of something negative...I cant! Great price! This thing will not let you down. Two thumbs way up! |

| This jacket is awesome. As previous reviews noted order one size larger than normal. I"m a lean 6ft. got the xl and it looks like a custom tailored jacket. My friends payed twice as much for similar jackets and still preffered mine. |

| This jacket is badass. Very well armored, and it looks beautiful to boot! The jacket does run very small....I usually wear a XL, and I ordered the 2XL. Even the 2XL is very snug on me, so I decided to exchange it for a 3XL. No way you can find a leather jacket of this quality for less than this price. |

| Sport look to go with the M109R I ride, this jacket kills it. Well put together with quality through out. Excellent versatility with zip out liners and removable pads. Took it for a ride and it feels great with controlled air infiltration. Straight up, you feel like a bad ass with this guy on. Because of out of stock issues,I was stuck with a xxxl, a bit big in the size chart but fits perfect. Couldn't imagine wearing anything smaller, sizes run small. Get one if you can still can! |

| Excellent jacket! The size fits perfectly, the leather is heavy but supple, the zippers all work well, the vents work well, it looks good, and the price is right. The only surprise (not really a drawback) is that it is heavy - around 9 lbs. Highly recommended. |

| Richard L. from LAFAYETTE, CO |
| This is a very nice jacket; plenty of padding and vents, and it looks great!
A couple of qualms: the removable liner is very thin and offers little in the way of warmth, so if you're riding in a cold climate and need a fleece layer underneath, you definitely want to order one size up. I'm 5'10" 190lbs. and an XL gives me the room I need for a warmth layer.
The waist adjustment straps are designed strangely. If you need to cinch up the waist you'll need to double the strap back on itself.
For the price, I'm delighted! |

| David from BENSON, NC |
| I'm 6'5" 265 LBS. The 2xl was like a large. So then I tried the 4xL. Even that size barely fits. Wish the sleeves were 2' longer. Also wish I would have ordered 5x instead. Thought 5x would be huge. But after seeing the 4x, It probably would have fit perfectly. Don't haven't decided if I want to spend the money again to send it back to exchange it or not. Other than that, the Quality and the thickness of the leather is great. |

| John from SEBASTIAN, FL |
| This is an awesome jacket. High quality leather, top notch workmanship and an excellent price. Will definately buy here again. Being the summer in Florida, I thought I would be overheating, but removing the liner and unzipping the 6 vents keep me cool. The armor is removable and will be used on long trips for added safety. Order one size up... |

| Great Jacket! Heavy, warm, everything works perfectly - I could not believe that it costs so little, other jackets in the store for three or four times the cost will not compare. Looks awesome, and rides great! This is a great company to deal with, too, they processed my exchange within days! |

| If you are looking for a serious jacket with armor this is an excellent value. It is not a lite jacket, it is big and heavy, it will not pack well, but you will look great and I believe it will protect you. Definitely order at least one size larger than you normally wear. I have worn mine for several hours in 40 degree weather and am very pleased. Looks like is should wear well. |

| Order a size up as recommended. At 6ft, 155# I'm long armed and big shouldered. An XL fits great. Nice jacket for the price. Already proven it's worth in foul weather and it's not even rideing season in Pa. Pretty warm even though the zip in liner is lightweight. |

| Simply the nicest leather biking jacket I've ever owned. And for $119.95?? I told several friends and they were sporting jackets that cost 2 to 3 timies as much, and weren't nearly as beautiful or durable. If you normally wear an XL, but 2XL as they run a bit small. Tremendous value and extremely comfortable on long trips! |

| All other size references are right on. Ordered XL, 1 size up from chart. Armor is still stiff and without - does fit better, but I wanted it snug. Live in New Hampshire so havn't had a chance yet to ride, but can't wait. Quality and finish is way better than expected. And...my wife accused me of trying to look sexy and wanted me to return it. Nice looking jacket, IMHO. |

| James V. from Anza, CA |
| This is the Jacket that sold me on Leather Up products. It is very warm in cold weather, the wind does not penetrate but just flows right around you completely. The one day I wore it during warm weather I just opened the vents and was comfortable while on the move. I've not worn it yet without the liner, but I think it will be just fine during hot southern California summers. The jacket is of VERY high quality. I'm 6'4" 320lbs, middle aged, and the 5XL fits me very well. The ONLY nit-pick I might have is in a jacket of this quality I'd have loved to see a main zipper of solid brass as I think the jacket could last 30 years with care and the main zipper is a black material which I honestly cannot discern what it is made of be it a tough plastic-like material or actually black metal of some kind. I really like this jacket and would buy it again without hesitation! I do believe I went the "get one size larger" route with this perfect jacket. It is snug, but not at all tight on me. REALLY thick heavy quality leather on this one, you could probably slide 150 feet on asphalt without injury. Plus it has stratigically placed armoring too, something we didn't have when I last rode heavily about 27 years ago. Unbelievable price/quality ratio. |

| Medeis N. from El Cajon, CA |
| Very nice jacket with a couple of caveats:
I am 5'10", 44" chest, 30" waist, 17" arms and the large fits well, wearing like a medium, except for the arms which are very tight, and the forearms feel almost like a tourniquet. I stuffed them overnight with folded towels and the day after I could actually wear the jacket and retain circulation in my hands, however, only one layer of long sleeves can be worn under.
On the other hand, the jacket is warm enough to require no more than a couple of t-shirts in 50 degrees weather.
There is only one inside pocket, unsecured, though it runs vertically and fairly deep, so nothing should spill out. |

| I did a lot of research before buying this jacket. It is a quality product at a great price. I got the large size. I'm 5'8" and 180lbs and it is a snug fit but you dont want it to be loose. With some wearing in I'm sure it will give a bit anyway. All the safety protection seems to be in the right places. I would recommend this jacket. Items came quickly. |

| Bought this for my husband and he absolutely Loves it! The quality is beyond what I expected (for the price). My hubby normally wears a 2X and we got the 3X just in case, and it fits him perfectly. The jacket is heavy and has a removable lining. It's not too bulky either and keeps him warm without the many layers necessary riding in cooler weather. I recommend not only this jacket, but Leatherup.com. I will shop again. |

| This jacket fits like a gove. There are a lot of details to this jacket. It is a well thought out design. I like all the vents that make this jacket more comfortable when the temperatures change. There are no light reflecting materials on this jacket, if that is something you are looking for. |

| I really like this jacket - nice and warm in cold weather and fits the arm length well. It is heavy duty and a great value for the price. I'll look to LeatherUp.com for all my gear. Pay close attention to the size chart, if you do, you'll get the right size first time. I didn't and I had to change for a larger size. I was very impressed with LeatherUp.com and their exchange process. It was easy and fast. Thanks LeatherUp.com - you have my business! |

| Adam C. from Titusville, FL |
| For the price this is an awesome jacket! The leather is super thick, and it weighs a ton. I feel well protected wearing this jacket, even though the armor is not as thick as you might expect. With the liner in, you can ride comfortably in 40 degree weather (I live in Florida, it doesn't get much colder) and with the liner out and the vents open, you start to sweat at about 80 degrees moving or not. I ordered a size larger per the recommendations of others, and it seems a bit big on me, but I am thin around the mid-section and bigger around the chest. If you are built like me, you can probably order the correct size. I am sticking with the one I ordered because it is only a little big. If you are sitting on the fence, get off it and buy this jacket! |

| Matthew D. from Boone, IA |
| This jacket is awsome! It looks and feels better than described and better than it looks in the picutres. It is very, very heavy and is made with quality throughout. The sizing - I am 5'9" tall and weigh 215#. I measure 45" at the chest and 44" at the gut. I ordered a 2XL and it fits perfectly. I would normally order a XL for any shirts, jackets or coats, but after reading reviews I went with the larger size. It fits snug in the arms, but there is enough room to wear a sweat shirt under the jacket. The sleeves are just the right length, which was my major concern with ordering such a big size when I am so short. I ordered the jacket on a Thursday and received Monday. Awesome! This was my first purchase from this site, as I just found out about it through and ad I saw on FaceBook. I will be ordering again soon. I couldn't be happier! |

| Dennis N. from Chicago, IL |
| I have a 47" chest, 40" waist, 6'1" tall and weigh 240. Bought this as a cold weather jacket. I usually take a 2XL but ordered a 3XL to wear a sweatshirt under it. No way. Ordered the 5XL and that just works but the sleeves in the foreearms are quite snug and I ain't built like Popeye! Very heavy jacket but has neoprene insert on the inside of the arms which allows for flexibility but also allows some air to penetrate. Jacket has warm liner in torso and good length in back to prevent drafts. Neck snap is tight on 18" neck with shirt. Side pockets placed too far back so it's hard to get into them. The large armor spine plate shifts around within jacket so I don't know where it would be if you took a spill and slid on your back. Overall, worth the money. Service was fast. |

| After 2 days searching and over 200 websites, LeatherUp is ones best bet for the price and prompt delivery. Considering all the reviews submitted, opted personally not to size up. For myself, a wise decision. As a few acknowledged, this jacket is tailored to fit and fit it does. One mentioned that if you prefer a loose fit. Size up. Otherwise no worries mate. Truc from Seattle labels the zippers weak. Here I must agree and would have been more than happy to pay a higher price for a more reliable zipper source. Hence my decision not to even bother returning the jacket. It has a badass look and feel. So for the record, personally it will be worth having the zipper replaced once the time comes. Overall price, look and customer service CANNOT be beat. ThumbsUp to LeatherUp and Xelement for one righteous leather. Thank you much. |

| Just got my Advanced jacket in from FedEx today (Super fast shipping), Opened the box and inspected. Quality is OUTSTANDING (especially considering the price). Very well designed and the armor feels really strong. Should be great when I get it back!! As reccomended in other reviews, I went 1 size up and hoped they were right. I was sceptical because I have 7-8 other jackets (3 leather from different companies), and all are 2XL. They all fit "roomy" They aren't tents but there is room to move and room to layer. Tried this on and the first thing was the sleeves. Felt like a full length Blood Pressure cuff pumped all the way up. Even a slight bend in the elbow would have cut off circulation to my hands!! The zipper at the waist would have at least touched but in the chest? I couldnt have got this thing to fit with a gallon of cooking oil and a shoehorn! Just sent it back for a 5X. Easy exchange policy and now I just sit back and wait. Just one of the drawbacks of ordering online. But like I said, The jacket is awesome. Farexceeded expectations.. |

| Jacket smells great! Size recommendations as per other reviews are right on ... order 1 size larger for comfortable fit (I ordered a 2XL and normally where a 46 jacket), especially around the elbows and forearms which can get a little snug with the lining it. Careful wearing a nice white shirt with the lining removed, I had some black rub marks on my white collared shirt from the inside of the jacket. The reflective piping on the front and back shoulder of the jacket is actually black in color, not white as it looks in the photos online. The stitching around the padding is less than perfect, but the ventilation zipper areas work great ! Inside chest pocket is good for a mens wallet, but has no zipper, so be careful how large of an item you put in there so it does not fall out when you unzip the jacket at the gas station. Only problems I had were a button snap was broken/defective on the left wrist zipper, one of the main chest vent zippers does not open at all and both left and right hand pocket zippers are failing ... teeth getting caught up allowing zipper to only close half way. Rather than return, I'll probably take to a local tailor and have the defective zippers replaced for higher quality ones. Jacket looks great for the price, is rather heavy as with most large men's leather jackets, but with the armor and padding, I feel it will protect you well in the event of a spill. Overall quality, for the price, is good ... but you get what you pay for ... quality and workmanship does not compare to the ICON Daytona jacket I just ordered, but that one cost me $238 ! |

| i must say that i have ordered several items from LU and havent been dissappointed yet the jacket is well made alittle snugg i ordered a 4 xl and i wear a 2xl tall it feels a little tight in the upper arm and sholder section which i think will soften up with wear for a more relax fit all in all you couldn't even come close to the price vs qaulity ratio hands down the best leather padded vented jacket on the market to date period!!! excellent buy very satisfied |

| Very well made, sharp looking jacket. I am usually an XL and the only jackets available were 3XL. I thought it would be too large, but I ordered it. Well, it was too tight! So I returned it for a 4XL. They shipped it quickly and..it is a bit snug too. I took out the liner and it fits fine. So you may want to go two sizes larger. Again, well made, sharp, good value for the bucks! |

| Ok so I just got this jacket from the fedex people and at first it didnt seem heavy but when i tried it on, it was a decent weight jacket. I am a little below 5'8" and medium fit perfect on me. Im medium built at 165lbs. I wasnt sure if medium would be good but it fit nice and just the right amount looseness. It is nicely made and feels durable. Leather smell nice and lining proved warm, its a good thickness too. There is fabric on the arm as you can see in the pic. Now dont be fooled because the fabric is nice and thick so it'll definitely keep you warm. The vents are long and have fabric webbing so its not just a hole. Overall very satisfied with the jacket. Beats buying fabric jacket from motorycycle store that run for the same price. |

| the jacket looks good and feels good. i wear a medium t-shirt for a nice snug fit and ordered a large jacket. it fits well and snug and the arms are about the perfect length. the only problem is the armor i thought would be a little better than just some foam...kinda disappointed in that but everything else is great. |

| Recently bought the Armored Padded jacket and Chaps. Was very leery about such a purchase on line. Read some horror stories but decided to go ahead anyway. With a few days they where at my front door. Unfortunately I lost my mind when ordering and got the wrong size. Read the reviews, they all said these jackets run small. Go two to three sizes bigger!! How well does Leather Ups return policy work? Like a champ. Did the paper work, boxed it up, shipped it out. A week later I'm riding with new leather. If your looking for leather, you've found the place. Thanx for everything Leather Up! |

| This jacket is awesome. I, too, ordered one size up based on the reviews that I had read and it fits great. The jacket is quite heavy and has the armor in all the right places. I feel completely confident riding with this Xelement jacket for protection. Might I say that it's warm as well! I haven't had the chance to test it out in anything but brisk weather so I can't comment on the vents. I've since made 4 more purchases from Leatherup and ALL have been great! |

| I bought the jacket for a very special person in my life as a Christmas gift. It fit his frame well as he is a tall broad shoulder man. The price was GREAT for the craftmanship and style of the jacket. He and I were very impressed with the jacket and would recommend to other riders. The only problem is that it runs small... but easily solved order a size larger.... |

| I really like this jacket due to it is a high quality leather. It really breaks the coldness, that my other leather jacket does not. I really looks good and the extra padding gives you a feel of a lot less damage if you go down. I really recommend getting 1 or 2 sizes bigger, for example I usually wear a large and got an extra large, this too was too small so I exchanged to 2xl which fits great. This brings me to exchange, it took about 2 weeks after getting jacket to get an exchange. The first jacket had a bad zipper, and the second one had a button immediatley pop off (the one that holds the quilt inner liner). My wife sewed it back on, so no big deal. Overall great jacket, just marked it down a point due to zipper, button and time to get an exchange. |

| Bought this jacket for my stepson who is particular about what he wears and he really liked it. An extra large fit his medium large frame perfectly. The jacket is solid with good seams and a great removable inner lining. The vents are perfect for the midwest weather where it can be cold in the morning and nights but steamy hot in the afternoon. This is the second item I have perchased from Leatherup.com and I am very satisfied with their quality of product for a great price. I will order more product with confidence because of their track record. |

| Again, a nice leather jacket from Leather UP! I have the Defiance jacket, with the meshed arms, but is a bit colder on 40 degree mornings. This jacket does fit very snug, so you may consider ordering up a size. I wear two heavy shirts under jacket, , and not alot of room to move. But with a t-shirt only, the jacket is a perfect fit, and with the vent zippers front and back, it also gives more room in the jacket when zipped down. A great fit, and look in this one!!! Shipping was fast and a breeze to order. Thanks L UP. |

| This is a great jacket! I get alot of compliments from friends and strangers. Just like everyone else, I ordered one size larger and.... a perfect fit! Snug, just like a real motorcycle jacket should be. I've road with it in 40 degree and 80 degree weather and it kept me warm on cool days and cool on warm days. This jacket is a definite must if you're gonna ride. First timers, be ware, it is a little heavier than the average everyday leather jacket, but again, you need that weight for protection and safety. Great quality leather, arm length is longer than average, but that's a good thing when you've got your hands on the handlebars (even ape hangers). If you're having trouble trying to decide on what kind of motorcycle jacket to buy, look no further than this one. It's a great jacket at an even better price. Enjoy!! I know I will ! |

Good quality and well made. Looks great with my sport cruiser! I've recieved several compliments on this jacket. The shipping was fast, considering I'm in AL. I will definitely shop here again soon. |

| I love this jacket. It's thug enough to go with my HR Giger themed bike & protective enough to make supersport touring practical.
My only two qualms:
- sizing! I wear 2XL t-shirts and 3xl jackets, generally! The 5XL fits me perfectly
- the liner sleevebuttons are a pain to reattach
Otherwise I couldn't want more in a jacket. Lots of venting panels if needed. I used this jacket as the topmost of 4 layers in 40 degrees last night. So, it can hold its heat relatively well! |

| This is an outstandingly warm jacket!! It does have it's flaws, don't get me wrong, but it is warm, attractive, and a great overall jacket.
The minuses are that the sleeves are tight, especially over the forearms. I ordered one size larger than normal, and would have returned a regular size jacket. The other problem was the top snap broke off, but I found a guy who replaced it for me at a minimal cost.
The pluses are that it looks great, feels great, and is very warm. I wear it early morning before sun comes up, and haven't had to wear anything other than my regular work shirt. |

| The jacket fits great. I've owned this for about 2 months now, been in 20 degrees with just undershirt and t-shirt. Don't really know about hot weather rides but if I can put a regular leather jacket on in 90s degrees I'd figure this will work out just fine. Liner's also removable, so that's a plus. Reason I gave this a 4 star is, the side pockets are bad design. I can't unzip it with same side hand, and cannot reach it with the other hand, not without a bit struggling. |

| Great Jacket! Once again Leatherup you did not dissappoint. Very stylish and comfortable. It did seem a size small at first as others have said, but give it a little time to "break in" and it's perfect. If you're going to wear in cold weather with bulk clothing or jacket underneath then definitely buy a size larger, but if just one shirt in cool weather, the size with "break in" is just right. Vents are very functional, zippers well constructed, and padding and liner hold in place. Thanks Leatherup! |

| The jacket arrived just on time for me to test it on a 700-mile ride. It is made well and the maker definitely uses thick leather. Having ordered a size larger (per recommendations), I like the fit in the shoulders and chest, but could wish for less room in the waist. I'm 5' 8" and weigh in at 170. Even though it comes with the adjustable straps, I cannot snug it up enough to keep out the drafts while riding on my Yamaha FJR. I'll need to do some tailoring of my own to make it just right. And while the actual lining of the jacket--not the zip-in quilted liner--is not the softest mesh around, for the price of the product, I'm quite satisfied. NBJ in Alexandria, LA |

| Excellent quality at an affordable price. Labor intensive stitching. The heavy leather and armor offers l the protection I was looking for. The jacket does not have reflective shoulder piping as shown on the pic and I am glad. The collar does not stand up as nice as shown on the pic. I wish that it had two snaps per sleeves to hold down the inner lining. Shipping in a larger box would have prevented many wrinkles which seem to be lessening as days go by. |

| I received the jacket and was more than pleasantly surprised at the quality and fit! This jacket is not your "top-shelf" brand that you hear about at motorcycle gatherings, but, don't let that disuade you from from buying it. In fact, I would highly recommend it to anyone regardless of their budget. It's got great features, looks, and all at a very cool price. The only snag I personally ran into (minor one) is the sizing. Based on many other customer reviews, I purchased one size up as recommended, but, found that for my personal fit, it was not necessary. It still fits me very well, and, gives a little room for fall/winter clothing underneath. Other than that, great jacket, great price, great experience! I give it a BIG thumbs-up! |

| Listen up , SIZES RUN SMALL!!! . I'm a XL by normal standards and the 2XL is even snug . It does fit better without armor though . Excellent quality & heavy duty Protection. They could put a deeper inside pocket in it with a zipper or snap. Nice venting 6 zippered two in back and four in front. When they say it is faster to place a new order and then credit you back for the exchange they mean it . My first order came in 3 days The exchange for larger size took 13 :( Great product will buy again in 40 years when this one wears out. |

| Little skeptic at first, but it turned out to be great! The armor is foam and that is the only downfall. Even the really expensive jackets only have the vest zip-out liner. This is a full-sleeved liner. Heavy jacket very recommendable! Great company will do more business again. |

| I really like this jacket, but give it 4 stars instead of 5 for these reasons... I wish the leather were a little thicker in some areas but it's double thick in the important places. Also, at the cuffs, it uses a zipper and a snap (button) design which is okay. I like my Joe Rockey mesh design of just a good quality zipper. Also, the make sure you realze that the interior part of the arm is not leather - - it's a synthetic material that stretches, which is fine but the Item Details don't really mention this.
MOST IMPORTANTLY - definitely get one size larger than you think. I bought an XL and returned it for a 2XL. I'm MUCH happier now. The 2XL is like my Joe Rocket XL size.
Great jacket for the price. |

| This is a great jacket for the price I paid, under $130.00! Seems to be pretty well built & made from good heavy leather. Order a size larger than you usually wear. I followed the advise of the other reviewers & did so & it fits well. The only things I see with this jacket that could be a issue with longevity or ease of use are:
Sleeves for liner hook on with a small button on the sleeve of the jacket & a small elastic loop on the liner. These do not look like they will take much abuse.
Side pockets are high & far back, makes it hard to access them unless you are very flexible or have short arms.
Web like lining that is exposed when you take the liner out is kind of rough if you just have a short sleeve t-shirt on for warmer days.
But, these items are minor & I would highly recommend this jacket!
It is very warm too. I wore it to break it in on New Years Eve. It was only 30 degrees out & I was quite warm for the 45 minutes I was outside watching fireworks. I just had a long sleeved t-shirt on under it & an ice cold beer in my hand! |

| Great jacket; as others say it runs a bit tight (I wear between a L & XL normally in jackets & sweaters; I ordered the XL and it's a tiny bit too small if anything). Feels solid and looks great. |

| When I received the jacket it was unfortunately to small. The size chart and the jacket sizing do not match. However, I had a good look at the jacket and was impressed. I hope that I'll receive a larger jacket soon. Even with the size problem I give it a 4 star rating. |
