Thanks for the almost complete review. I was waiting, but it never happened. Went to the end and when I thought I'd hear it, I didn't. Didn't tell us the size or your size. You told us about the great deal, it was on sale and had a coupon, but you left it out. What was the price? (I know that was 2 years ago, but the video is still up).
Thanks, we're getting there. Now, so we'll know if it is true to that, what size are you? The other important question was, how much was it?@@MrGibsonguy335
That's a tricky question. Besides the point that I bought the jacket 4-5 years ago, the price had been marked down in the store, I had just won a $50 gift certificate in their Bike-Nite drawing and then there was another 10% off sale that day. I ended up leaving the store with the jacket for somewhere under $129...@@floridaredneck
I [we] appreciate that information. Actually, that was a great story and would have been entertaining to have heard about that. Seems like you had a windfall at checkout! I had one in shipping at the time of my question but have it now and love it. I questioned the jacket and your personal size to know if it fits like it should. Although S, M, L, etc. is not always convenient since there is no science to it, sometimes number sizes aren't always accurate either, depending on where they are made. Mine is a "Blaze 2" (not leather) for summer, since it's always warm (mostly hot as hell) where I live (I've never seen snow). I got size M and I'm 5, 11", 150#, 31"W and it fits perfect. I'd say someone 170 or more would need L. Thanks again! @@MrGibsonguy335
I am 5' 9" and 170 lbs. My jacket is marked a size 42 which seems about accurate. Keep in mind the fore arms are a bit snug on these motorcycle jackets. The idea is to keep the jacket in place if you have an unplanned meeting with the pavement.
@@MrGibsonguy335 Perfect... I’m 5’10ft & 175lbs. I saw these jackets go on sale this morning & ordered a 42. I love the retro styling of this jacket Plus the possible three season functionality. Great review. Thanks for getting back to me
Go get yourself one of those sewing tape measures… measure your chest under your armpits, those tapes are good to have now days being everything is sold online then you can get the correct size for anything the first time… pants, shirts, jackets, helmets, etc
M for you. I'm 150#, 31w, 5' 11, 38c" and just bought Bilt's Blaze 2 in M. Fit's perfect; L would be too big for sure. We are the same size - M. Btw, your suit size should be 39 Reg/ 31"w/30.5" inseam slacks. Size 40 coat, when wearing layers under it; otherwise 38/39/M should be fine.

It says size 42.

Nice collection in the stable.
Yes, thanks
Does it have any protections on elbows and shoulders, besides the padding? Awesome review, thank you so much!
CE1 protection in elbow and shoulders.
Can this jacket be good in arizona weather by chance
What is your height and weight and what size jacket were you wearing? Also does it seem to fit true to size?

@@skinwolf I saw that sale price this morning. A great deal and a likely sign that the jacket has been discontinued. Get it while you still can.
I wanted this jacket but it was sold out 😭 went with there Nomad air textile/leather jacket…
I don’t understand the sizing? Used to S M L XL, Im 5’10”, 145lbs, waist 31, chest 38, what would I buy for the size?
38 is usually an S,but check the manufacturer website for confirmation
