I 'll let you guys know about sizing and fit/finish and armor when it arrives. I think it'll be a great 3 season jacket, it had some good reviews from other girls who had purchased it.

update, Motorcycle superstore had put my order on hold as the bill to and ship to did not match. I called yesterday its been almost 2weeks. They tell me its on hand and will be shipped today. (that was Wed)Today thursday I call customer service and ask how come you didn't e mail a tracking number.......they said because it did not ship.They dont have it. Its going to come from a vendor into them hopefully today or tomorrow and then ship out probably monday. I am less than disapointed with this company's lack of customer service. I will update this thread next Christmas when I finally get it.
Have a happy day girls!

wahooooooooooo! I have my new jacket!
Ok here is what I can tell you. This is not a jacket for someone who rides........It fits great around my waist and chest but very tight across the shoulders. The neck opening is about 18 inches around so there Is a huge gap that will no doubt fill up with cold air or water in a rainstorm. I cannot wear this thing. It looked great in the pics and it is nice but in reality it is a made in China jacket and the sizing is so outrageously wrong its not funny!I cannot believe that they market this as a riding jacket when it has a neck opening I could most likely get my thigh in. It will go back.

wow!  good to know, thanks for the update. I almost ordered that same jacket, not
glad I didn't. I ordered a fieldsheer (I think) instead. I ordered it a week ago. Got
the email on Tuesday that it was shipped, so we'll see when I get it!

that jacket looks hot! I am getting a Scorpion jacket to match my pants. I had a pair of Teknic gloves - they were great, so I'm sure the jacket will be rockin' for you! Get some pics of you in it riding!
