| this is a great jacket! It has 3 liners so you can go out in layers and just peal some off as it gets warmer throughout the day. I got this jacket 2 sizes larger and I'm glad I did. I think this would make a great 3 season jacket. add a heated vest and its good for all 4 seasons. |

| Very nice jacket. Less than half the price you'd pay for similar ones at a local bike shop. Mesh lining makes it very comfortable too. Keeps you nice and cool even on the hottest days. I do a lot of riding at night, so the reflective design is a must. Ordered my exact size and the jacket fit perfectly. |

| Nice jacket, great for warm weather riding. Order bigger, though. I'm a size large for street clothes, and usually get a XL for motorcycle jackets. Couldn't even squeze into it, so had to get a XXL. Happy with the jacket now, though. |

| Good quality and very versatile. 6'-0" and 195lbs. I wear a 42-45 suit coat and ordered the XL. Fits good and without the liners may be a little large but with the liners fits fine. Mesh allows for good air flow. Overall I would have no problem recommending. |

| Frank E W. from Elyria, OH |
| I really liked this jacket, the quality of materials and construction are very good. It's a nice looking and very versatile jacket. My only issue with it is that I am 6' 2" and these things are short thru the torso and short in the arms, plus it runs much smaller chest size than the size chart would indicate. I ordered the same size as the leather jacket I got last year from LeatherUp (which fit great) and was disappointed that the sizing was so different. I called up customer service to get some help finding which of their mesh jackets would fit me and they indicated that ALL of their textile jackets were short. I wish someone would have mentioned that before I ordered, it would have saved me shipping both ways! So apparently if you are tall, stick with leather... |

| The jacket is great because of the liners. It's mesh, so summertime riding is cool, but the waterproof liner and the "warm" liner keep you very warm when it's cool outside. I live in Texas, and this is probably the warmest jacket I own in my entire wardrobe. Very pleased with this product. |

| Lester C. from Orlando, FL |
| Brilliant jacket with 3 layers: outside (wish it had more reflective piping), waterproof/mesh (a bit constrictive in the sleeves, but phenom overall), quilted inner vest (needs more quilting for insulation). Great adjustability, proper body armour, not too heavy, plenty of pockets. You'll want to wear a reflective vest on dark nights, since this is lacking a bit (thought the white stitching around the shoulders was reflective but it's not). Michael's review was spot-on -- you'll need a heated vest during colder winter days especially since the quilted inner is thin.
Overall, I'm still rating this 5-stars because of the overall quality, adjustability, functionality and price of this jacket. |

| My new motto ATGATT. All the gear all the time. Hit a deer helmet did great job. Will be even better protected from now on. Buy now the best of safety equipment is just barely good enough. This jacket may just let you walk away. |

| Bought a size L for my 16-year-old son, and it fits perfectly. Seems true to size. Awesome jacket - very well made and looks sharp. His friends with motorcycles really like it and said they want to get one. When we told them the price, they couldn't believe the price! Great jacket at a great price. We were very pleased with the shipping, too. Order was here within a week and very well packed. Highly recommend the jacket and LeatherUp.com. |

| Excellent jacket. Very breathable. With all of the liners out, you can wear it on warm days and not get too warm. I'd have to agree with the others who said to order one size larger. I usually wear a XXL sized jacket, and I ordered a 3XL. Fit perfectly. |

| George from Unicoi, TN |
| This coat gives great protection while keeping me cool, even in 90 degree weather. Xelement quality is above normal, however one of the snaps on the winter liner was broken, and the pants to coat zipper was sewn in backwards, just minor to my fondness of this coat. |

| lorraine d. from oakland, CA |
| This jacket saved my a**...Took a fall at about 50 MPH on the freeway with only small rash on elbow and waste..The jacket is a gonner, but hey, thats what it is made for. Unfortunately, I did not have gear on my legs so you can see a bit of kneecap on the left side.. (Get protective pants!!!)
Other than this jacket saving me from some MAJOR issues and doing its job wonderfully, it also breaths really well on a hot day (-liners of course!)..My buddies in their leathers were jealous.. On top of that, the warmth liners REALLY work on a cold day- the both of them together work almost too good. The only minor issue I had is that my left elbow pad did not sit (hug) my elbow on the left side that well, which was a bit annoying. Over time I it worked itself out tho.
All in all this jacket is AMAZING, and you can bet I will be buying another one...Just as soon as I get my bike back up and running.... RIDE SAFE, WEAR GEAR!! |

| Charles S. from Evanston, IL |
| This is a superb jacket. With the 2 liners out, it is very cool even in hot weather. With the liners in, it makes for a comfortable ride in spring and fall. The jacket is a steal at this price. Remember to order at least 1 size larger, maybe 2. Also be very careful of your exhaust pipes. I hung my jacket on my mirror and the sleeve accidently touched the pipe and instantly melted a hole in the sleeve. |

| These other guys must be living in a fantasy world about their real sizes. I took their advice and ordered a size up--BIG mistake. Now I'm stuck with return shipping. Even still, the price is so much better than retail that I'll still come out way ahead. |

| Ray S. from Atlantic Highlands, NJ |
| Nice looking jacket. I ordered XL... I thought I'd fit, but too snug. Sent it back and cost $14 to return :-( Xelement should size jackets for real world fit.
It's August '09 here in NJ...riding daily to work 1/2 hour each way in cool mornings and 80+ degree late day heat. Jacket is surprisingly cool when moving, but need to unzip or take it off quick when stopped. Black color draws heat when stopped. I don't use it when it hits 90 and ride in short shirt sleeves.
Two liners have not been used by me yet and have about 12 snap-and-loop retainers each. Too cumbersome to get together quickly. I am glad I bought for 3 season riding and will try to use it instead of my dress leather jacket in winter. Good value for me and I like the added armor protection when I ride. |

| Feli R. from RICHMOND, TX |
| The jacket is awesome!! I live just outside of Houston TX and the heat and humidity are horrid, but this jacket allows the air to penetrate well, so i'm not burning up. I just took out the two inner linings and i was good to go. I normally wear a medium, but i went up one size and the large fits me perfect. |

| Bought this jacket for my son. He loves the free-air flow through the entire jacket. He also like the optional liners (2) included with the jacket. lastly he likes the race-effect patches on the shoulders. He said it gives the jacket an aggressive look. |

| Very nice jacket. Keeps the cold/wind out. the adjustable arm naps are very helpful. The foam armor is a little gaudy but overall a great jacket. |

| Searched your webiste extensively before purchasing this jacket. First of all you guys have the best selection and lowest prices of any site I've been to.
Bought this jacket last week and it arrived right on time within 4 days from ordering...The service was excelent, As far as the Jacket, It Rocks!..Love the 3 stage lining system. Rode home yesterday in 85 degree heat without the two inner liners and the jacket breathes very well. Over all I rate this jacket to be top notch...I'd recommend it to anyone. |

| This is a fantastic jacket. It is very comfortable, even with the armor padding in place. Looks very sharp. |
