Bigger? try this out!
As a bigger guy this jacket is great, flexible where it needs to be, tight as it should be. The many adjustments make it easy to make it comfortable for any rider. Zip out liner and tons of vents make it nice for spring/summer/fall riding (don't get to ride in the winter here).

Nice Jacket!
This jacket has been the best purchase I have made since I bought my bike, it keeps me warm in chill weather and cool in hot weather. Very good product.

Great Jacket for Riding in Warm weather
Great ventilation. Rode in 90+ degree weather with plenty of cooling, even at 35 mph. The fit is perfect using the size chart. Pockets and vent zippers are easy to open/close with gloves.

First of all, Cortech products are great. I have the GX Air jacket, which is great, I just bought it too big. This jacket, the GX Sport, is great looking and great fitting. I am 6'-5" 240 pounds, and semi-athletic. The XL Tall fits me like a glove. Compared to my GX Air, this jacket is a little warmer, but not bad. This jacket has really great venting, and once you hit 40-45 mph, it takes in a ton of air. I rode today in 90 degrees. It was a little hot in traffic, but really cooled down when moving. I'm mostly a fair weather rider, so I doubt even when it cools down I will use the liner. With the vents zipped shut, I don't think any air will get in. This is a great jacket no matter what the price, but for $179, it is a no brainer. Motorcycle Superstore is the best, easiest and quickest I have ever dealt with. Their return policy and ease of returns can't be beat.

Nice jacket, looks sharp in person. Vents are great and armor is comfortable. I am 6’1” 155 with long arms and chose this jacket because it was the only thing that came in a "tall" size. The medium runs quite large, I could wear a size smaller if it existed in the tall length. For my dimensions though this is probably as good as it will get.

Cortech - GX Sport Series 2 Jacket
Great jacket - does all that is advertised to do plus more! Material & construction are of high quality and very durable. All the vent options make it great for both summer (85 deg) and late fall (recently rode in 35 deg weather) and was fine. I'm 5'9" with 40" chest and a large was perfect. Great jacket though hoping I’ll never need to find out it's full "potential", but for now it's serves its purpose wonderfully.

Love this jacket and all of it's features. Only thing is as a female my arms are too long to wear women’s jackets. The upper part of the chest where the zipper ends is a little bigger than should be probably but that’s not due to the maker. Just females wearing men’s clothes. I would buy this jacket again.

Amazingly Comfortable Fit
I've had this jacket a few weeks, and have loved wearing it every moment I've been riding. Great comfort in the morning chilled air... Great ventilation in the afternoon sun... I would readily suggest this jacket to anyone riding. I found it worth every penny.

Cortech- GX Sport Series 2 Jacket
Pros, Great vents, decent fit. It should last a long time.
Nice and warm with the liner in. Great pockets. Waterproof but haven't ridden in the rain with it yet...Got a mens small, I'm 5'9" Fits great. The zippers are very well made and look like they will last as long as the coat.
Cons, The stitching on the Velcro is coming of where the tab goes across the front zip at the top. Easy to fix but at this price it shouldn't happen.

This jacket is a great value. Very sturdy construction and lots of nice features. I ordered one size larger than I normally would on the recommendation of others who bought the jacket and I love the fit. The wind block liner works as advertised and the insulated liner is warm. I haven't been caught out in the rain yet so I can't comment on water resistance.

Great Jacket
Purchased this jacket in December '08 and finally got the chance to try it out in February '09. Temperatures were from 27-45 degrees.
I wore a heavy weight thermal top under my shirt and I could not believe how warm I was riding in 45 degree weather, even at 27 degrees on a 30 minute ride I was comfortable.
I ordered a L and while it is pretty snug around the waist and chest even with all adjustments completely loose, but the sleeves are perfect. I am 6' 1" 212 lbs. and I don't feel constricted and have good movement in the shoulders and arms.

This is a good quality jacket with many good features. Order a size larger than you usually would as it fits tight for the size.

Scoops on shoulder
This jacket seemed well made and felt very substantial, but the “medium” was a bit too large--normally I wear a medium. Also, the shoulders are built up more than in other jackets so with the shoulder vents open you can start to feel the drag. This jacket seems to offer a lot of protection and is very reflective at night.

Great jacket for prize
The jacket fits well, if not a bit snug with a long sleeve shirt on. Does a great job of keeping me warm with the exception of between my helmet and the jacket. I would recommend ordering a size bigger as suggested by others.

Very well done, tremendous amount of protection. Good adjustment features. Great price, maybe a little loose for the size.

Cortech GX Sport Series 2 Jacket
Reviewers recommended buying larger size. I ordered the next larger size, it fits well and it is a great jacket. Good armor, but I have not tested it, yet. Yellow is extremely visible and looks good. The air scoop system works extremely well and can actually dry my shirt on the road at city speeds. I zipped out the liner, but it does get a bit warm in slow, stop-and-go summer traffic. It will be just right when the weather cools down. I would buy another.

Awesome jacket
I got it to use as a winter coat since I don’t have one, until I get my bike in the spring and let me tell you, this thing keeps you pretty warm... it’s not very comfortable to wear in a car though that’s the only complaint I have so far... I took the pads out for the time being since I don’t need them right now. My friend laid down his bike in this jacket and slid on it and it kept him safe, minor damage to the jacket. If I had it to do all over, I would get it again

I really enjoy this jacket. It’s cool and breezy with the vents during the summer and warm with the liner. Nice colors and sooo many pockets. Only jacket that truly fits me. I tried Joe Rocket for a while but nothing has the comfort like this. The only peeve I have with the jacket is that the front zipper catches a bit, but other than that it’s great. Small price for such a great jacket.

The coat fit perfect in the body but the sleeves are a little long. I am 6ft 1 and need the xtall size. I can live with it and love the quality of the jacket and would buy another.

Cortech - GX Sport Series 2 Jacket
I've never had a jacket fit so good.......EVER!
I'm 6'5” and very skinny (175lbs) so when I buy a jacket I usually get a XXL just so the sleeves are long enough. Motorcycle Superstore has the black version of this jacket available in tall sizes (I wish all jackets were). After checking the size chart I decided I was a Med. Tall. The jacket fits perfectly. The air scoop system works very well but if you live in Florida it's still a little warm. I really like the external padding as well as the internal armor. I've read other reviews that say the threading is coming loose. This is very minimal and can be fixed with a lighter. Perfect fit + excellent protection, but not the coolest looking jacket. I give it a 10 for fit, form and function, but a 7 for style.

Great jacket for the price!
This thing ventilates pretty good and is only hot on a 95° day at a stop light; once you get moving 15 MPH or so, it clears out and isn't too bad. The finish is good, but some stray strings have popped up that needed to be snipped or pulled. There's a ton of pockets, but I wish the chest pockets had a tab to make pulling them open easier, since that's where I keep my military ID needed to get on base. All in all, it fits well, offers good range of movement, good ventilation and ample storage for your stuff. Well worth the price.

This is my first jacket, it fits well. I feel more protected than I would in mesh. The vents allow adequate airflow on hot days; however it is still warm when stopped at a red light. After a long ride on a 90+ degree day you will be sweaty. I use it for my daily commute to work and the red color appears to make me visible to traffic. I would recommend.

My first riding jacket so I have nothing to compare. Ordered online and received prompt service from Motorcycle Super Store. Ordered the 2XL tall (Black comes in tall sizes) and it fits my 6 ft 2 in, 260 pound frame very well. It seems to be well constructed and looks great. Has a good amount of pockets. I wear it every time I ride. Have worn in temps ranging from 60 to 95 degrees without the liner and have been comfortable. The vents give good air flow. I am cooler in the hot temps wearing the jacket than without it. .

I purchased this jacket for my husband, who is new to motorcycling...he loves it! I rest easier knowing he's better protected & more visible (the bright yellow, black & white is very good-looking) when he rides, which is almost daily with his commute to work. And thanks for the exceedingly prompt delivery - impressive!

Nice fit, the finish of the jacket could be much better, lots of loose threads all over the jacket. I took the time to trim them off and discovered a seem was missing on 1 sleeve after comparing with the other side. Had it repaired locally.

I have had this jacket for 3 months and love it. The protection seems to be very adequate and I feel safe with it on. The fit is right on, the price was a little high since I got it with my bike from the dealer. This site is about $80 cheaper.

Freeland, MI
Cortech - GX Sport 2 Jacket
I really like this jacket. It is very well built and the quality is extremely good. The only issue I have with it is when the shoulder vents are open it fills with air and rides up my body a little. Just enough so that the collar will bug me a little. So I don't open the shoulder vents, but that just leaves the 2 arm vents. Otherwise it works very well. The liner is easy to get in and out and the elbow and shoulder armor is. I wish the back protector was a bit thicker however. For the money - you can't beat it.

Ever since I saw this jacket I loved it. It is a sleek durable jacket and you get your money's worth. Sometimes however, my jacket puffs up because wind gets into it. I think through the sleeves. On a scale of 1-10... Definitely a 10

The Perfect Motorcycle Jacket
I did a great deal of research before finding the perfect jacket. I live in Florida and I needed something that could go from being very well ventilated to being completely waterproof without having to carry accessories around all the time. I like leather but leather does not like water. The front hand warmer pockets are NOT waterproof like the inside pockets. It seems like these would be dry too but somehow they are not. This is not a big deal, just a warning in case you want to put your garage opener in there and end up having to buy a new one...In short; I would not even try another jacket because I've found the perfect one.

Nice first jacket
I received this jacket in the white/grey/black color and I was very happy with the look and feel of the jacket. The armor is reassuring as well is the "outer armor" that is over the plates in the jacket. The fit is nice, and the "tail" on the back of the jacket helps a lot with wind and coverage. Very adjustable, and with the vents open I've only gotten mildly warm stopped in traffic or at lights. The back vent is a nice touch to keep air zipping by the upper torso, without feeling like the open vent is a safety risk.

good for the price
I got this jacket and I am happy with it. It has a lot of pockets which is always good and the fit is okay, but I’m 6'2" and 170 lbs, so I bought an xl to make sure the arms were long enough which they are. But the stomach is baggy and the adjusters (a pull string with a stop on it) broke on one side and cannot be fixed. I still like the jacket but some things don't work how I would like them.

More than expected!
I have purchased several items from Motorcycle Superstore and once again they delivered an item way above my expectations. (NOTE: I have very high expectations.) I had ordered from other on line motorcycle type stores in the past and in no way was their customer service, pricing or commitment to carrying great merchandise comparable. "Motorcycle Superstore" will continue to be my store of preference.

Excellent jacket for the money. The pics make the jacket look very cheap, but I saw these at the dealership and they look 100x better than the pics show. Very comfortable and seems to have the same features as the $200+ jackets.

Fits good, little long in sleeves. Threads coming out all over, inside and out, just singe them off. Liner takes temps down to 40 degrees well. Like the pockets. Not a bad buy for the money. Works well for my style of bike (1000 GSXR).

Great bang for the buck!!!
Bought this because I wanted a good dual sport / touring jacket. It has great features and quality compared to my other jackets. Waterproof feature seems to work fairly well except in extreme conditions. Did not like the Velcro wrist at first but found they do work well with most gloves. Highly recommended.

Placentia, CA
good jacket, small details missed
There are some features of this jacket removed from the previous version that I miss, but I'm sure I could have lived without had I never had them before. The small forearm pocket is gone from the Series 2, as is the back pocket. Also the cuff zippers are replaced with velcro. Actually an improvement I think now that I've used it, the velcro goes under glove gauntlets much easier. But the jacket is better than my old one as well. Inside pockets I didn't have before, as well as pockets on the liner. The vents have moved a little and more difficult to see when they're closed making for a cleaner front of the jacket and more striking white band down the arms than the old one across the chest. The back vent changed from 2 small vents to one big one, but I don't know if it moves more air. Fit is great, if you fit Cortech jackets. I usually wear Large shirts, and got a large jacket and it fits well with underarmor shirt and long sleeve t shirt under. I haven't had a chance to wear with the liner yet, doesn't get that cold here usually (southern california). My biggest pet peeve is loose thread on seams and this jacket seems to have a lot of that. It's not a big deal, but to me just shows a lack of attention to detail. My jacket also had a defective zipper when I received it, but it's one of the inside pockets so it wasn't a big deal to me. I also haven't gotten to test out it's rain resistance. I continue to recommend Cortech gear for those who don't want to wear leather or break the bank on a Aero suit. Personally I think it's the best bang for the buck after going through two jackets, two pair of gloves all Cortech.

Cortech motorcycle jacket
This is an awesome jacket. It's my first one and I’m very satisfied with everything about it: fit, comfort, safety, and style. The only drawback is wanting to wear it in south Texas weather. Even though I removed the liner from it for now, riding it in 95 degree temperature brings uncomfortable perspiration. I recommend it to anyone who wants protection and style.

Nice jacket for the price
I like this jacket, but I have a few niggling complaints. I'd like to stick with tall sizes as I have broad shoulders and long arms, but I bought this size XXL when I would normally expect to wear an XLT because I found tall sizes difficult to find in stock. But, even though it's a size larger than I would normally order, the sleeves are a little tight on me. The neck opening is huge, and allows cold air into the jacket at speed, making cold Fall rides less comfortable than they could be. After just a few weeks, I see some loose threads and stitching that looks out of place, but overall I am pretty satisfied with the GX Sport.
