Mens Vintage Biker Style Motorcycle Cafe Racer Distressed Leather Jacket

I'm 5'10" at 175lbs with a 42" chest and the Small is a great fitting leather jacket for me. This is a copy-cat jacket from the original design on what is advertised on the photo. It's not an original, but the fit is just about as perfect as they come. The sleeves aren't too long at all, unlike most leather jackets I've bought before. The service was EXCELLENT! They ask for my body's measurements such as chest(40"), shoulders (18"), arm length(25. 5"), and waist(30"). Those dimensions happen to fall under a small for me. The length of the sleeves were absolutely perfect. It's not too long and yet it still allows me to reach my handlebars without riding up my arms. The worn gray leather is as advertised in regards to the color. It's an artifical tanned in color, so you can tell that it's not authentically worn-in and the colored details aren't there. The red arm band is waaaaay too red (it would fit a new leather jacket more than this worn look), so the jacket doesn't look exactly like what is on the pic in the listing. The off-white highlights are too white. They need to be toned down a bit to be less stated to adhere to the worn look. The off-white just catches too much attention when it doesn't need to be. The shoulders fit perfectly for me but the waist swims a bit around my 30" midsection. There are red details on the shoulders and back of the collar (as seen in the pic) . Again, if you look at the pic in the advertisement, it has more of a worn-in, sunbleached auburn color more so than what's on this jacket, which is a deep red. Again, it makes the jacket look like more of a fashion statement than the hard worn look of a true biker jacket. The snap-on section of the collar flap is too long and thinner than what I'm used to, so the fit is not perfect. The snap-on leather appendage to the sleeves were a bit too long as well, thus creating excess material when the sleeves are fully zipped. Overall, great fit. If they only got the details down a bit better, this would've been the perfect leather jacket. I have been looking for the authentic version of this jacket for a while and this come closer than what I purchased before on ebay, which to my horror, was made out of a synthetic pleather material instead of real leather. Thankfully, this jacket from Amazon is made of authentic, real cowhide leather. Very soft leather at that, which concerns me a bit for riding purposes, since it may not take the punishment if I take a hard spill (I once worn lambskin gloves which disintegratedon impact when I took a spill at 45mph). Overall, 4/5 stars simply because of the great fit. I like the expandable ribbed section of the sleeve and shoulders a lot. It allows the jacket to contour to my arms and make the fit snug when I'm riding without feeling like its too tight..... think expandability, except with leather, which is really unheard of.

Buy two sizes bigger and expect to receive a very cheap bad smelling jacket. Also expect a refusal to refund money unless you give them a tracking number despite the return authorization form being in the box. Luckily I kept mine. Leather is maybe 1 mm thick at best. More like a veneer. Cheap!

First off, I am a female 5'9" and 110 lbs and VERY toned and cut but NOT buff. I own about 15 very high end leather jackets and coats. I am not busty and was looking for a more "boyfriend" style jacket perhaps a smidge oversized. Had I ordered a size smaller the arms would have been too snug. Fit IS near as I had hoped though will not be wearing sweaters due to the tightness of the sleeves when bending my bare arms. I am used to buttery leather...this feels like cardboard and cannot truly hope it will soften much over time. That said, may also be impossible to get rid of the horrific creases and wrinkles from packaging and shipping. My other jackets cannot get caught in the rain, this one I would not mind which will be great for outdoor events or on the back of a motorcycle. Quality is low but the style is very cool...pending the wrinkles lessening. I did try a light conditioner but it adds a shine that isn't quite right for the finish I ordered and did ZILCH to soften the leather. I also tried a few other techniques to NO avail. Still hopeful but you DO get what you pay for and this is far off from my $500 to $3200 items...DUH!!! The stitching looks as though it is slightly pulled away at the top off the sleeves at close inspection. For the money I say go for it as time will be the true tell all of this purchase. Just DO NOT expect too much. Not a big deal at $100 but still disappointed. Also, had I gone down a size it may have been too snug at hips. Zipper is feisty but should get easier. Pay head to size chart and if you are near or right on I would HIGHLY recommend sizing UP or two! FYI, I wear a size xs/0 in women's clothing. It did smell terrible but that didn't last too long once out of packaging. Hope this is helpful.

Overall this jacket is decent. I'm 5'11" 165lbs and usually wear either M or L in jacket. I went L kn this one. Sleeves are perfect for my body, the waist is very big and flaps around quite a bit when I'm riding. With that said, I'm a 31" waist. I believe a M would be a better fit to my waist, but the sleeves would fall short. I have worn this jacket almost daily for my commutes and pleasure rides. Pockets are well placed, and it feels heavy and solid enough. I took a 30mph spill two weeks after purchasing, and while I didn't slide far (hit by a car coming into my lane, slid about 15ft), there were almost no trash Mark's on the jacket.The zipper is ykk, a good zipper company. However, I have struggled with the zipper since buying this jacket. The zipper teeth have pulled apart, and it's difficult to get it together. I see this more as a zipper manufacturing flaw than a jacket flaw. I will be replacing this jacket when the zipper breaks, and will be looking for something with a better fit for my body.Hard to go wrong for this price point. Don't expect $500 quality.
