Milano SportGamma Motorcycle Jacket

I wanted this because of the looks and the styling, and was pleasantly surprised at the quality and feel of the product once I received it. Having read Hugo's review with his advice to order one size larger than normal was a blessing. I am 6 feet tall (1.82M) and weigh 185 pounds (84kg) and have a normal athletic physique. Normally I order most jackets in Large but this time I selected the XL and I am glad that I did. Since it comes with an interior liner it fits perfectly. It comes with removable armor in the shoulders and elbows and there is additional armor protecting the forearms. The material as light weight but strong and is 100% waterproof. Additionally it is windproof. I bought this to complement my summer jacket and this will be my foul weather option. In fact if I remove the liner I might just wear it for all four seasons. Since the waistband is adjustable I'm able to make it snug around the belt line but it's just a Tad snug around the chest (I am 44"). If you are 200 pounds or more I would suggest at least the XXL. The larger size also gives me the option of removing the inner liner and wearing a hoody or sweater underneath. If you are from North America and don't want that ultra tight European look opt for one size larger. Additionally I have unusually long monkey arms and the XL was the perfect fit for sleeve length. Now I can wear motocross gloves and my wrists are not exposed. The shoulders and elbows are extremely flexible, the jacket is very light, and the weatherproof a is phenomenal. Highly recommended. Please comment on your size and fit since motorcycle jackets vary significantly between the manufacturers.A year later, still looks brand new. The padding makes you look like a body builder; you will turn a lot of female heads. The jacket is absolutely wind-proof and the fit is 100% adjustable. There are reflectors built in that are not obvious in daylight. You can size the waist, neck and arms to your liking. This jacket is Badazzz. There are many ventilation zippers for summer riding, but when closed, is totally wind-proof.

That's right. I was hit at low speeds by a drunk driver in an intersection and he knocked me over. My left elbow slammed into the ground and left some considerable bruising. There are thick pads reinforcing and protecting your forearms, elbows, and shoulders, and I can honestly say the elbow pad saved my elbow from shattering on the pavement. The shoulder pad did some considerable work too. Yes, the jacket did rip, but it's an extremely small tear considering how much actually slid on the pavement. It did what I bought it to do, and that was to protect me.Moving past the safety rant, the jacket looks sweet! It has padding all over, has a cool striped designs, velcro straps to tighten down the waste and sleeves so air can't get in, and an extremely warm removable liner. I'm riding in +30 degree weather, and with a scarf protecting my neck, I experience no discomfort. I'm 6'0" at about 170 pounds, and the MED size fits me perfect, in fact, I can even wear a hoodie underneath when it gets REALLY cold!Great jacket for a great price. Moreover, very SAFE jacket. Five stars!***UPDATE***I recently sold my last bike and the jacket with it to a friend, who absolutely loves it. I purchased a new motorcycle and instantly went online to purchase another one of these, this time in the blue color to match my new bike. It looks and fits stellar, and I get a lot of compliments from people about the cool look of the jacket. So far this is my second one and I am extremely pleased with it, not to mention I feel vey well protected if I ride. Milano continues to receive 5 stars from me!***UPDATE #2***I added pictures! Of my first jacket (white) and my second jacket (blue) from Milano. I'm not near as thin as the pictures make me look for the blue jacket, so keep in mind it's much wider than how it appears! I also like to match, and both the jackets have done their matching bikes justice.

Very nice looking jacket. bought it entirely because of the style/colour combo really appealed to me. great price for the quality, really makes me look like i got some beefy shoulders and arms!QUALITY - zippers aren't the best but better than most other low end jackets, stitching is good and strong and i dot note any notable defects. velcro at the wrists is a bit of a concern as eventually the stuff wears out, but i have some dual lock velcro in mind to replace it when the time comes if needed. very well armored and padded shoulders and elbows, some forearm. back padding is very minor, mostly cosmetic, some DOE armore in the back would have been a nice addition, but it does provide the slot to install some.USABILITY - full sleeved quilted liner, which is rare as mose only have a vest instead adds some seasonal use to the jacket. it claims waterproof, but i have yet to test it out in rain. would suggest early to mid spring to mid to late fall with and without the liner based on temps. hot in the high heat of summer but the front does have two sippers openings at the chest by the armpits that does help somewhat.SIZING - i ordered one size up as recommended by several, I usually wear XL and got a 2XL. fit is good, (snug to very snug) with the full zip out liner, without it is a little bit roomier, could fir a not too thick hoodie underneath if needed without the liner. it is a bit short, cute off right at the waist almost to high, but right at the beltline, slightly lower at the back which is good for the typical riding postion. I'm 6ft 220lbs, not muscular
