looks good but that is not a riding jacket. No armor and not abrasion resistant. To wear day to day, though, would be cool.

Jeez, it's a bit LOUD ......

 

[Mr Buck]

That is a tidy jacket!

I'd say this is god-awful ugly. I'm a subtle guy, though, not much for logos. By that same token though, you probably think what I wear is ugly. Damn this world of differing tastes and opinions!

 

[paper]

I've been a devote Aerostich owner since about 1991.. My first Roadcrafter 2 pc. suit was sold due to closet shrinkage about 6 years after I bought it, for $100 less than I paid for it..

Right now, I have an old Darien Jacket and a fairly new Darien Jacket, as well as a pair of Darien pants and a pair of AD1 pants that I got cheap.. All waterproof, impact padded, and they're American made quality products with a great company that stands behind them.. My old Darien jacket is going in for service this winter, getting rewaterproofed, retaped, and cleaned.. Cost for this service is about $40 plus shipping to Duluth.

I know.. The stuff isn't cheap.. But you get what you pay for.. My older Darien jacket is closing in on 10 years old, and has about 120,000 miles on it.. I wore it to work today.. I wore it on a 250 mile ride last night to go buy my FZ6:rockon:

Find me a Chinese made jacket that's still around, and sound to use after 5 years and 50,000 miles.. I wish you luck with your search..



Oh, and the photo was 4 years ago, above Copper Harbor, MI..:thumbup:

Aerostich store in Duluth over 4th of July weekend.. Same bike, but I was using my newer jacket..

I'm using this at the mo' http://www.600riders.com/forum/riding-gear/32318-teknic-freestyle-jacket.html But dunno how it will stand up to winter riding.The lining seems warm enough though.

I'm using an Olympia "Viper"

Mesh with a rain liner and an insulated liner. It has been a great jacket. I bought it to fit without the liners so it may be a bit snug with them in but that was my choice.

Wasn't thinking of it as riding jacket I alredy have a textile and a mesh. Thought it would be good to wear when off the bike. Hey geoff were did u find ur leather jacket.
