Ok did some searching on here and didn't find much.. that either tells me that the product isn't good or they just didn't buy it because of it being a nylon jacket. My question is...is this a jacket that could be wore will riding around town on the bike or is this a jacket to wear to the dealer in your car? Anyone actually own this to actually wear out on the street? I know that there is no substitute for leather!!!!! And where can you get the body armor for the back(FXRG line)? | ||

I've got both the Jacket and the body armour in stock. This is a riding jacket, based on Joe Rocket design. It is a decent mid weather jacket, not like leather for protection or warmth, but decent. T | ||

I picked one up online last month. Pretty sure it's a Joe Rocket Atomic model. I really didn't need it but couldn't pass up the price. The jacket has CE armor(elbows/shoulders) and claims to be water resistant. I look forward to testing this once the snow melts. | ||

Whats the sizing run like? Some recent purchases found sizes fit a bit too tight. | ||

I am really pleased with the sizing. I usually buy Large Tall sizes when available to get the sleeve length right. I took the chance and ordered a large jacket. It fits just a little loose in the chest while wearing a t-shirt. I'm sure with a sweatshirt/fleece it would be about perfect. The sleeve length I would guess run about an inch longer than my other jackets(Alpinestars). I am 6'2" and about 180lbs. A couple other notes about the jacket. 1. It has a 2-way main zipper, can be split from the bottom. 2. 2 vertical vents on the chest, 2 on the back, and one on each bicep. | ||

Yea, like I need yet ANOTHER jacket, but if I found on of these bolt jackets at a good price, I'd get one. Just don't know if I need a large, being the type of jacket..I don't see the need to wear much more under it...so maybe a medium?} | ||

Got my jacket in and I agree with Timo31 the size is just barely tight for me and I got the medium being I didn't want it to flop at posted speed limits  . All in all the jacket is heavy and good quality. |
