IRON JIA'S Motorcycle Jacket, CE Protection Gear, Summer Breathable Mesh Casual Biker Riding Jacket for Men XXL

TL;DR - this jack is pretty amazing for the price. Air flow is insane • quality is on par with Oxford moto gear and gives Merlin a run for the money • comfortable and flexible in all the right places • ideal for hot(ter) climates, summer riding, and should be a go to for beginners’ intro classes or parking lot drill sessions (weather permitting). • Height: 6’ 0” • Weight 185 / athletic • Chest: 43” • Size Ordered: L • Fit: PERFECT! • Temp Range: 70° - 110°F // can get down to 55 with a thick sweater as a base. I ride in Souther California along the coast, inland, and just about anywhere I can. This jacket is 100% a summer jacket for most places (it’s mesh after all) BUT you can get away with wearing it in cooler weather as long as you wear a sweater (or a base layer and sweater) underneath. In warmer climates, this can easily be a 2-2.5 season jacket. Where the Iron Jia may fall short in terms of name recognition, added flare, and street cred, it more than makes up for it in FIT, FEEL, and PRICE. FIT: The main complaint I have with other Motorcycle jackets is the fit of the armor (pads) - specifically the elbow pads. BUT THIS JACKET? OOOOOOH WEEEE - it fits like you want it to… with a little input that is. Iron Jia included Velcro closures in multiple places within each armored pocket allowing you to position the elbow pads higher or lower along the sleeve. You only have about 1.5 inches to play with, but that makes a world of a difference. AND the additional positioning of the customizable Velcro strips also ensure that the pads stay in place. In a Large, the jacket fit me snug, er, fitted like it was tailored for my body. Sleeves: I have slightly larger than average arms (not massive), and I filled the sleeves just fine with a bit of room to grow into. Smaller arms? There are straps on the upper sleeve to cinch down fabric. I cinched the Velcro just a tad but let it out after a few minutes. Velcro at the cuffs allows you to custom fit the sleeves around gloves and wrists to your liking - I have slightly above average wrists for my size and had plenty of room - not only did I cinch down the cuffs but I had plenary of room for a tighter fit if needed. Neck: I have a proportional neck circumference for my build. The neck strap has two buttons for sizing, and I found that the looser setting was the only viable option. Length: also perfect! Long enough to cover the top part of your pants and loop into a belt loop, but short enough for aggressive positions on a cafe racer. FEEL: I initially bought this for a 1-day skills class I was taking. Speed was kept at / below 25 MPH… keep this in mind for later. Temp was 93°F in the sun and we were learning on hot asphalt. I wore a t-shirt + this jacket and had no problems at all. Did I sweat? You bet (I’m only human). But I didn’t feel hot in the jacket - rather, the jacket didn’t make me feel exponentially hotter or uncomfortable. I could keep it zipped and buttoned to the top and still be fine as I sat on a hot bike engine in the hot sun. And when it was time to ride? Dude, I can’t even begin to explain how nice this thing felt - it’s mesh after all and in the summer it just feels good! With just a T-shirt under the jacket, I didn’t have any rubbing and there were no issues with seams or scratchy material on my skin. PRICE: Now, for about $50 - $60 more, you can get the Merlin Prospect Air Mesh… but this jacket is just as nice and more importantly, just as safe! Value is the word one might use. Yes, the back pad is just foam, but the shoulder and elbow armor are the same D3O pads you’d find on a more expensive jacket. Plus, this jacket is not meant for super high speeds - is it better than wearing a T-shirt? 1000% better! Is it a track-ready? Nope. But it’s a great jacket for leisurely rides or around town. I use it while running drills or if I need to just run to the store real quick. It’s light weight, easy to wear, and looks great as it is. The black color is even and deep. The reflective strips are a nice added bonus yer are not obnoxious or in your face… they’re subtle yet effective. And as far as I can tell, the quality of the jacket is top notch and I expect it to last a long time. Just get this thing already!

Very nice jacket. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to put the armored pads in but not to hard. Hint. Turn sleeves inside out for the elbow pads. Over all happy with the jacket. Note . I am usually on the edge between large and xl. I ordered a large and its just a little loise but still good. The sizes might run a little big.

great jacket but runs small my husband is a medium but this was tight on him IM a small it fits me great quality but I have to return for a large size up

Really nice jacket to wear, it’s really comfortable, it has a simplicity look to it which I like, the fit is what you usually wear but I would get a size up if you want to wear a hoodie under it and it definitely keeps you warm enough during the fall and slightly chilly weather. All in all a great jacket, would buy again!

Excellent summer riding jacket w/ protection, light weight and fits snug, I would buy again, nice jacket for the price.

One size up. Then fits great. Perfect for Texas weather which is always hot. Breathes great, sturdy mess fabrics. Good pads. Hope to never test it.

Great feel and good quality. Simple and effective. It does run a little small but I needed it to be. It has good air flow and feels like strong quality if I should ever hit the street.

Not for big boys. Waist cut in a 3xl is SMALL. I really wished it would have fit, and they don't have a 4xl. I'm 5ft 11' at 250 lbs, and this 3xl jacket was at least 2 inches too tight.

niveau qualité et du prix c'est de bonne manufacture

Eine perfekte Jacke für die Sommermonate. Im Sommer ist es in meiner anderen Jacke zu einer reinen Sauna gekommen. Daher musste eine andere her. Die Jacke ist wunderbar luftdurchlässig, die Protektoren machen einen guten Eindruck. Den Rückenprotektor habe ich aber durch einen besseren der Klasse 2 ausgetauscht. Ich habe die Größe L bestellt (M, 178cm, 77kg) und passt perfekt.

I returned the jacket once because there was no armor in the package. I've decided to give it another chance and placed a new order. The armor was there this time... Very nice jacket. Well made and perfect for those hot summer days. Minimal protection but still better than riding wearing only a t-shirt. Unbeatable price for this level of quality. The pocket zippers seem cheap so be gentle with them. I'm 6 ' and 190 lbs. I've ordered an XL but I usually wear L. Order a size up.

Jolie veste uniquement pour l'été car la maille est totalement transparente je doute qu'elle fasse protection mis à part les coques et dorsale Ne vaut pas le prix payé pour la sécurité

Excelente chaqueta. Bien confeccionada, y de buenos materiales. Ideal para llevar en verano, y dias de calor, ya que está diseñada para este tiempo. Viene con protectores en espalda, hombros, y brazos. Buena relacion calidad-precio.
