Ride with Pride
Got the jacket in Jan. Been using it all year and warm or cold. It does great. Everywhere I go, people like the jacket and want to know where to get it.
I am thinking about getting the desert tan version to have one for the summer. Keep riding....

Outstanding!
I bought this jacket a few weeks ago and absolutely love it. I have only 1 issue with the jacket but I'll get to that in a minute. When the jacket came in, it was about 80 in my area. I put it on w/o the liner and went for a ride. With the vents open, riding or sitting at a light, I was VERY comfortable. The fit is PERFECT! The back pad is a little annoying at first but I got used to it. The only issue I have is that POWER TRIP doesn't make an AIR FORCE jacket. Yes, I said AIR FORCE. I ended up removing the patches and I'm currently stitching on some Air Force patches. Over all, a great jacket. No disrespect to the Army. We're all on the same side.

Awesome Jacket
I would definitely recommend this jacket. I’M 6’4” and typically wear an XL, however I ended up returning the XL and went with 2XL. The return procedure was flawless. The jackets appearance is one of a kind and I have received many compliments. Order up and enjoy.

Overhaul fit of the Jacket
I used the scale on the web site to choose the size of my jacket. I didn't know if it would fit but when I got it, the fit was just right. I have worn it in some cold weather with alot of wind and I was nice and warm. SGT Booska, US Army, Warner Robins, Ga

This jacket is not only comfortable, but looks great. I have had hundreds of compliments. It meets all MSF criteria plus the Army regulation. Would encourage all Soldiers who ride to buy one.

Awsome Jacket
I saw this jacket and loved it since I could show I was part of the US Army! The reflective gear attached to it works great to meet regulations so you don't get hassled by the MP's. The liner is warm when needed and easy to remove. I now ride in Arizona and people always want to know where I got it! Of course I have added some of my unit patches since then to to give it some more life! If you are looking for a jacket and you are Army...this is it!!!

I just got this jacket in yesterday. Boy it is very sharp looking. I immediately put it on to check size. I ordered based on the size chart and it fit. I immediately put it on and went for a ride. It fit nice. I rode in the afternoon at 56 degrees at a speed of 55mph it kept the wind and chill off me. I had the liner in. I was only wearing a t-shirt and light sweater underneath.
I decided to truly test it this morning. I rode to work which is about 25 miles of back roads at 7 a.m. The temperature was about 35 degrees and a light wind of 5 mph. I am not sure what the wind-chill at 60 mph per hour was but I was impressed by the warmth. I really thought I would freeze. I have a normal sweatshirt on and long sleeve shirt under it. My torso got chilly but not uncomfortable. My legs on the other hand froze. I had long john and jeans and a wind breaker pair of pants. They did not help. But I made it. I was impressed by the feel of the jacket. It was not too heavy or light. It really made a difference on the wind shears as well. I did not feel as much wind hitting my torso and I felt safer riding. The elbow and shoulder protectors were already in the jacket and they were comfortable. I had good movement in my arms and did feel tight in the shoulder. I adjusted the wait straps to form better around my gut and I did not feel any updraft into the jacket from my waist area.
The customer service agent who helped me on the phone when I ordered it was helpful and patient. I had several questions. The jacket was shipped out the same day and I got in three days from ordering. I am looking forward to testing this afternoon again on the way home. It is a very sharp looking jacket and well built and designed. It also conforms to military specs on riding on a military base with the built in reflectors that you simply pull out just before you get to the military gate. I love the magnets that hold the reflector in the back and would encourage the designers to do the same for the two front panel reflectors. They are easier to lock into place.

only one issue
I LOVE my jacket. I have one little issue, I was zipping my pocket the other day (about the 3rd time I've worn it) and the zipper pull broke. I'm not really sure how I'm going to fix it, my guess is I'll have to take it to get a new zipper put in the pocket. I was really disappointed. But other than that, I love it and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again. The detailing is great and the extras like the rolled collar are awesome w/ a hoodie. GREAT product!!!!! I would recommend to anyone.

Nice jacket! I'm 6' 195lbs and an XL fits me perfect. I love the design and fit, only complaint would be ventilation, it has a few zippered vents that don't let much air in and the material is not breathable.

I liked the jacket and its features. The fit was good. The quality was good. I actually bought 2 of the jackets and will be returning one of them. Not because of any problems, I just changed my mind on the second one.

Proud to Wear This Jacket
Top quality jacket. Love the fit and it just “feels good”. As a Veteran of the U.S. Army, I love that this jacket gives me a way to continue to show my support of our Soldiers. As a DoD contractor, I spend several days a month working at Ft. Hood, TX, and this jacket allows me to ride on post within all regulations without having to carry an extra reflective vest. I rode to work this morning in 45 degree temps, and with just a small thermal layer on beneath my t-shirt (with the liner zipped in), I was plenty warm. I rode to work yesterday in a light rain with plenty of road spray, and the jacket did an OK job of keeping me dry underneath (definitely just water resistant, not waterproof).

Great Jacket. I’ve had a lot of positive comments from fellow Guard troops. Recruiting ad on a bike! Comfortable, and keeps me in regulation. Only complaint IMO is that it needs a collar... otherwise perfect.

Great Jacket
I am very happy with this jacket. The pull out reflectors make ride on and off post easy. The construction of the jacket is solid as well.
