BORLENI Motorcycle Jacket Motorbike Riding Jacket Windproof Motorcycle Full Body Protective Gear Armor

This review will be highly subjective, because this jacket is very much a use-case scenario; i.e.: if it's for the reasons I bought it and will note here, great, buy it. If you're looking for something that goes more towards the negatives I point out, go with something else. Overall, I say it's a great buy for the price, especially compared with brand-name stuff.Pros:Out of the box, everything seems to be good quality, especially for the price; seems quite robust in fabric and stitching, and looks like it will take a good roughing-up and not tear up, but only time will tell.Regarding size: if you're looking to use it over other clothing, especially regular wear (I was/am), then the sizing is good; if you're looking for the adjusted/super-sport canyon/track carver fit, go a size smaller, or with a different design/style altogether, as it's slightly bulky.Re the fabric weight, same thing, I wanted it as a super outer layer, but if you're doing track days and stuff, get something else (it's almost more of sport-tourer jacket than a super-sport, although I imagine it would be good for cruisers and standards).The removable liner is perfect for my case: not too thick and warm (S. FL; and I didn't even break a sweat riding home int he Miami heat this PM from the pickup point)), but good insulation on chilly mornings, and easy to install/remove. Same with the armor pieces.Limited adjustability, but there is some weight snaps and straps (see below as well).Cons:It's quite a bit brighter/"orangier" red than appears in the listing. I imagine this will fade with time and usage (sun exposure), and it actually insures greater visibility, but it's definitely an octave up from Honda Red (I'm a Honda guy).The pockets are smaller than expected; they work fine, but getting gloves in and out of them is not as smooth as I'd want.The adjustment snaps and straps are fine, but the folds created in the fabric when they're used look like the'll cause a little wind drag; again, only time and use will tell here (same with weather-proofing).

The jacket looks even more badass in person very comfortable the color is amazing the buttons seem very strong the zippers seem very strong the armor pockets have zipper enclosure very nice the back armor is inserted behind the insulated lining back armor fits very well and is held in a pocket the back armor feels great barely even know it’s back there the shoulder armor feels nice covers the whole shoulder top and side the elbow armor is perfectly placed it lined up with my elbows nicely the jacket wrists have Velcro straps to adjust the size of your wrists the jacket is very lightweight with no armor inserted once the armor is inserted it gains a little weight but nothing too crazy heavy I went with the level 2 orange upgrade armor I did not use the armor provided with the jacket the elbows and shoulder armor that come with the jacket are great looking seem very strong but the back armor that comes with the jacket is lacking I would definitely recommend upgrading the back armor at least all in all I’m extremely impressed with this jacket definitely be buying again5 foot 9 inches157 poundsSlim buildI went with the size large2 months now since I received this jacket it has exceeded my expectations it has survived two rides in light rain and no water got through to my skin once was with the liner in and once without the liner plus I've worn this jacket while riding in 20 degree weather at 55 mph and it keeps me warm not toasty warm but not freezing either it's kept me comfortable I've put this thing through the wind test as well let me say it wasn't intentional but my god it did great I got stuck on the highway doing 55 with a headwind of 15 mph and a gust of 19 mph not fun at the least wouldn't recommend it not safe but the jacket kept my comfortable I will throw on a nice thick hoodie under the jacket and you will stay toasty warm add in the heat from the engine you are golden send it definitely recommend this jacket

Really impressed with the high quality materials and stitching. But bad pocket placement is almost a deal-breaker for me. I’ll explain below. I will list pros and cons overall:Pros:- Quality, the material is heavy duty and stitching is great.- Padding is good (others have complained about padding. It’s definitely good and better / thicker / more dense than other jackets I’ve had)- Fit (overall fit is excellent with a few notes. I’m 6 ft 190 lbs. I like slim fitting so I got a medium. Fits great and slim (I don’t like boxy which is what you get with most other jackets). Also note, yes, this jacket is short in front. But this is the style. It’s a race style jacket. See the photos of their model, the skinny guy with goatee, the way it fits him is exactly how it fits. The back part is a bit longer to cover underwear / crack.- Nice custom fit straps. Straps at waist and arms to customize fit.- Looks great. I definitely like the looks better than the other goofy looking moto jackets on Amazon.Cons:- Lack of pockets. KEY COMPLAINT: the main pockets are in an awkward position where it’s actually tough to get your hands inside because the pockets are at your ribs. Very awkward hand position to get into pocket. There is a hidden inside pocket near the main zipper at your chest, which is nice, but you have to unzip jacket each time to access. I would have liked better/additional pockets.- No vents. Yes, this jacket is hot, so I wear it without the liner unless it’s cold out. With wind from riding it’s perfect even on hot days, but when you stop moving it gets hot fast in hot temps, but not unbearable.Overall happy with purchase. I’d say order your normal size. If you like medium Tshirts, order a medium. Etc.
