Viking Cycle Stealth Armored Textile Motorcycle Jacket For Men - Extra Protection,Waterproof and Breathable Mesh (3-XL)

Ok, I really love this jacket for comfort (really awesome feel), appearance, functionality, safety, and price point. I have two issues. First, when I went to tighten one of the arm fabric gathers, it pulled out of its sewn in anchors. Second, one day my arm was kinda sweaty and then I tried to remove the jacket, it pulled out one of the inner sleeve button holders for the inner lining. Those are my two quality issues. I didn't want to deal with return and exchange hassles so I will be having a new sleeve outer anchor sewn in, and repair the inner sleeve anchor myself. I would have liked to see a zipper flap on the jacket to help with some of the air coming through the zipper. I gave this product 4 stars for the benefit of the doubt

This jacket has a lot crammed into it considering it only cost $99.99. This is an initial review of the jacket after two different rides totaling about 5 hours ride time. It is really well vented for warmer weather (when liner is removed) riding, however the jacket is not a complete meshed jacket. Only portions are mesh throughout the jacket which is nice if you dont want a full on mesh jacket. Once the temps get down to a cooler temp, say 65 degrees you can put the liner in and its like having a much warmer jacket making. This two in one feature is great if you are riding through areas where the climate changes as elevation changes. It is short in the torso so that there is no bunching up of the jacket as you ride and it fits on the tighter side. I am a fit 170lbs 5 foot 8 inches tall male and the medium worked for me. The jacket seems to be well made and just as durable as any of my other jackets I have (including some Harley ones). the only issue that I noticed while riding with it is that the shoulders are kinda bulky and when I would turn my head to look over my shoulder (wearing a Bell Bullitt helmet) the chin piece would hit my shoulders making it hard to look back. This is my first jacket I have owned with the shoulders built like this one and maybe the is normal or it could be due to my riding position (Street Glide stock handle bars). I think this may not be an issue for sportier bikes which is probably the type of rider who would most prefer this jacket, so I cant really call this a bad thing just an observation. Overall the jacket seems great if you dont want to spend a ton of money and still get a lot of features.

1st of all this is my daily use jacket, the front is all black not like what u see on the photo that's the reflective strip. Fit is good, he arms, wrist and waist are adjustable. It has plenty of pockets including the removable liner has 1 pocket on it. The liner goes all the way to the arms. I haven't tried its waterproofing yet. I'm 5'10" 197 lbs I wear large perfect fit also due too adjustability options. I'm not sure what other people saying about the arms snug, prolly if u have ginormous arms. Good in cold weather too but bundle up below 45deg. I also wear joerocket mesh with just 2 pockets and also speed and strength with hoodie. But I wear this more often during cold weather.UPDATE: Not waterproof, does not come with waterproof lining, u can't get the lining anywhere for replacement. It only comes with the thermal lining . For that minus 1 star

Excellent commuter jacket for motorcycle riders.Temperature:It's definitely warm enough for cooler days (45F+). On hotter days, the lining zips out and the vents catch the breeze.Fit:I need to give it time to break in. I am 6'6" and ordered a Large. I should have gone XL I think. Anybody average in size would fit great in this jacket though. There are 3 adjustment points on each arm and two on the lower back, which means it will fit fine over or under other garments.Utility:Plenty of pockets of varied size. All pockets zip so I'm not worried about losing stuff on the road. My cell phone (galaxy s7 in a life-proof otter box) fits in the exterior breast pocket. In addition, there's a sweet little clip on a string attached to the outside waste pockets. Clip your keys or other small objects in for that extra measure of security. The armor is dense, so I definitely feel a tangible layer of protection. I haven't hit any rain with it yet, but I can tell it would hold up in a light drizzle. Definitely want to add proper rain gear when it really comes down.Quality:Stitching is strong. Armor points are well placed and durable. Velcro is tough, and clings well. Quilted liner for extra warmth in the autumn is lightweight.Overall, this is an excellent product, and even better price.

So im 6” and weigh around 160 lbs, and I went with the medium size of this jacket, and well? It’s a pretty damn good fit, and feel awesome to wear!Pros- 1. feels very sturdy, like it will definitely help you if you wipeout2. Keeps your warm when riding, I rode in 40° weather with partial clouds in NY and was perfectly fine(besides my hands and face!)3. I feel like iron man wearing this! It’s alittle “boxy” feeling meaning it’s alittle stiff, but I feel like that will go away after some more use so I don’t see that as a negative! I feel like I couldn’t take on an army while wearing this >:D4. Has a removable liner that really changes the weight, and I feel like I’m the summer time when I take it out, it will make a big difference in comfort!Cons- 1. Zipper is not made of metal, nor are the teeth. For a jacket this heavy, and meant for protection you would want the metal zipper to really keep it secure on your body!2. The pads scratch very easily because of the soft rubber material, but it can also add to the Bad&$$ look of riding a bike with more wear and tear, so I’ll say this is a plus and a minusThat’s really my only concern is the zipper!I got this jacket because it’s always cold in New York, and I get cold very easily! I rode twice so far in this winter on the “nicer days” and was not cold at all where the jacket was on my body! The rest of my body I couldn’t help hahahaOverall, a great jacket, and a great buy for the price! :)
