Review on πŸ’ͺ Stylish and Protective: Men's Vintage Cafe Racer Motorcycle Distressed Leather Armor Biker Jacket L by John Harvieux

Revainrating 3 out of 5

slightly different than pictured

Don't get me wrong, still a great looking jacket. But here's why it didn't work for me: The color isn't as "black" as the photos show. The leather is more like matte suede and is more gray than black. Limited pockets - but I find that on most motorcycle jackets lately. Fit: I used the size chart for fit. It's definitely an arm's length fit. However, I had to remove the padding AND the padding on my arms and shoulders to get it to fit. It was too tight with them in the jacket. So this could work well if you are looking for an unlined/lined leather jacket. The rear pad didn't affect the fit. I would have kept it, but I didn't like the leather color and finish. Medium would be too long in the arms and around the waist (suitable for 5ft 7in / 165lbs). Pads: The felt is very durable. The elbow pads are amazing (if I could use them). They extend about 1/2 way down the forearm. The zippers on the chest are vents, not pockets. The back of the neck is also the same "matt suede" that feels right on the neck. Neck. Overall a cool looking jacket but more photos would be better to see the exact color and skin type/feel.
