WICKED STOCK CE Level 1 Certified Men's Motorcycle Jacket - Lightweight Mesh Biker Jacket with Adjustable Cuffs & Waist Belt - Reflective Armored Jacket for Summer Riding - Perfect for Street Biking & Commuting

I had recently purchased and immediately returned the Nomad Ironborn Biker Jacket sold here on Amazon. It was returned because the jacket's baggier cut was not personally appealing and in my opinion falls more in line as a 3 season jacket for those with a "few beers on the weekend" kind of build in the midsection. That jacket is a baggier, larger, warmer jacket overall. I am mid-sixties in age. Stand at 5'9 - 175lbs, slightly broader in the shoulders, with a true 44 inch chest and size 32 waist when wearing my Levis jeans. In my estimation, this jacket would be most appreciated by those that prefer a a less generous cut with the sweet spot size wise being 175 - 185 pound, 44-45 chest, 32-34 waist range, when used as a late Spring/ Summer/ Early Fall, option. Those with a build at the larger size of that range will probably find the jacket to be a true form-fitting jacket. Where a sweatshirt could still fit underneath. But with some tightness across the upper back when riding. Those similar to my build, might find it to be a "very happy with the fit" offering, when wearing only a tee. To a even more perfect "Goldilocks" kind of of a fit when worn with a sweatshirt, or possibly a sweatshirt/ tee combination underneath. Those with a 42 to 43 inch chest, as well as a smaller than 32 inch waist, might in my opinion find the jacket to be just a bit on the larger size. That has them thinking of trying a medium to see if that was preferred.Color wise, what is described by the manufacturer to be a light gray, is in to me personally, best described as a dull, "dirty white" that has a slightly warm -- more sand-- undertone to it. As opposed to an actual gray.At $69 dollars I feel the jacket is a well made, bargained priced option. That along with the build quality and cut, could possibly be considered on par with what one might be willing to pay up to approximately $89 t0 $109 for... But at that higher price, I would feel that the jacket would have to prove itself to be durable over a longer term than the one or two seasons I personally expect from an offering in the cheaper $59 -$69 price range. So if this jacket does give more than a season or two of regular use I would consider it a great value. The jacket is very light weight. With "good enough quality wise" body armor and a very breathable mesh construction both front and rear. I personally do not use back body armor in my summer riding gear, as ventilation is a priority for me and the foam back bad can somewhat defeat that purpose. My concern for having the padding in my jacket is more for protection of the elbows and shoulders.
