Asger Textile Motorcycle Biker Jacket for Men with Removable Armor

After searching for a long time for a good quality motorcycle jacket I ran across this one and I definitely do not regret purchasing it! This jacket has the padding in all the right places: the spine, the elbows, heavy duty shoulder guards, chest and stomach areas. Along with that this jacket has many areas that can be unzipped to make the jacket breathable in the hotter months. It has multiple pockets within: knife holder/pen holder, phone pockets, tablet pockets, wallet holder, etc. It also has two outer pockets as well. This jacket has a really heavy duty zipper as well. For the colder months it has a zip-in liner that keeps you super warm and toasty. The adjustable straps on the waist area are great quality as well. The velcro straps around the wrists are heavy duty as well. Also around the neck the velcro strap there is no doubt just as well made as the rest of the jacket. I love the quality of the material and how protected I'll be wearing this jacket while riding. This is definitely a jacket that I would recommend to anyone that rides on a daily basis.

I ordered the 2 XL based on the sizing chart. I am 6’ and 250 pounds (most of that is belly though!) and this jacket fits great and feel very comfortable. It has straps at the waist to adjust the fit. The shoulders and arms are perfect. Plenty of protection for elbows, shoulders and spine. There is also a removable liner and several vent ports to let air flow through. The right and outside pocket has a clip to connect your keys to and all outer pockets can be zipped shut so you don’t lose anything while riding. The only complaint I have is they have inside pockets marked for holding things like your phone, a knife, pen, etc. The designated pockets for holding a phone will only hold a phone if it is about 2 inches wide and without a case. There is a regular pocket inside though that will hold a phone with a case or your wallet. It’s not a huge deal, just something to note.

I am a 6'3" tall, 195 lb rider, with a relatively athletic build. I generally wear L, or XL shirts/sweatshirts, but I read in many other comments that these jackets generally run small, so I ordered a 2XL. This is the first motorcycle jacket that I have ever owned, and so far (about 150 miles in) I am definitely pleased with the product.The jackets armor sits comfortably, in a position such that you are unaware that the armor even exists in the jacket while riding. I live in the northern states (Minnesota), and we have been having on and off cold weather here still, and this jacket can adapt perfectly from 45 degree days to 75 degree days. The combination of the removable liner, and plenty of air vents allow for it to be worn no matter the temperature. The material seems to be well made, and durable, and I have yet to have any real issues with it.On the other hand, I have had a few small issues that have caused me to take 1 start away. The first being that the jacket runs significantly smaller length wise than width wise. As stated, I have a relatively athletic build, but am taller than the average rider. This jacket fits me ideally width wise (I wanted something I could comfortably fit warmer close underneath, to ride in cooler temperatures), but even with order the larger 2XL size the jacket is still slightly short in the torso and arms. It still fits comfortably, and is not a major issue, I was simply expecting a slightly longer jacket. The second (and again, minor) issue that I had was that the snaps in my left arm, used to hold the liner to the outer layer of the jacket) do not seem to hold as well as the snaps in the right arm. This does not cause any functional issues, just a minor annoyance when removing the jacket on occasion.Overall, I am very pleased with the jacket. I would recommend the product to anyone who asked, with the only caveat being that I would suggest they order at least 1 size larger than their normal shirt/sweatshirt size.

This is a decent motorcycle jacket. I feel safe wearing it which is the most important thing. However; After wearing for a few weeks while out riding, here are my biggest problems with the jacket.1: The collar is velcro, NOT a snap button as shown in the picture. I would have preferred the button, as the velcro causes quite a bit of discomfort. On my jacket, a corner of the piece of velcro was sticking past and digging into my neck, causing a small cut where it was digging in. This was solved by cutting of that small corner. I also took to the sewing machine and added some soft fabric across that part of the collar to add a little more comfort around the neck. (I'll add photos of this at a later time)2: Similar problem around the cuff of the sleeve. It wasnt velcro, just the textile rubbing on the wrist caused discomfort. Again, couple minutes on the sewing machine adding some soft fabric in that area solved the problem.3: I wish the liner was a little nicer. Just going on a comfort standpoint, its not very soft, However, being the end of October in the Pacific Northwest(Portland, Or) it does keep me fairly warm, so thats a plus.4: I wish it had a few more adjustment straps. The fit is decent, but it really only has two tightening straps, around the waist. I would like some around the arms to snug up the elbow padding.Overall It's a good jacket, just a few small problems here and there. Would I buy it again? Probably not, I'll save the money and get a nice Icon or BiLT jacket.
