Post by: Carstarphen on December 04, 2009, 10:07:00 AM
This is a very good deal for a very good jacket:

NewEnough presently has a good selection of sizes but I will guess they will not last long.

Lots of folks on advrider.com rave about this jacket.  Check the equipment thread for reviews/info.

don't forget to check the DMF on checking out.  they give us a dollar and it costs you nothing.   We're running a contest soon as we have enough for some gear form them!

I have this jacket as far as cold weather it is awesome, my only complaint would be that there is a bunch of material that bunches up in your lap when riding, that is to be expected from a 3/4 cut style. Mine fits cozy snug not tight, and can be a bit of a PIA when it bunches up during agressive riding. as far as waterproofness, without running He Mans test i would say its water tight.
