Great Riding Shirt, stylish with armor protection
This is a great combination of shirt/jacket. It's a light jacket or heavy shirt - both descriptions fit. For me, I was looking for a heavy shirt with full armor to ride comfortably and with safety. This shirt hits the mark.<br /><br />A few things to note, in terms of sizing, this shirt runs large. I am 5'8", 175lbs with a 42 inch chest. I usually take a size Large and that's what I ordered. However, the Large size was boxy and loose fitting, just a little to big. Sleeve length fit like a 36 in US shirt size. So, I ordered a Medium and it is a perfect fit. It's less boxy, more fitted and stylish as a result, which also has the benefit of keeping the armor in the right place. Shirt sleeve about a 34 in US shirt size. <br /><br />The features are pretty basic but it's what you would expect. Good quality snaps and zipper, breast pockets are good but a little small. One nice surprise was a deep inside CCW pocket with zipper, which I find perfect for a wallet and mobile phone. Action back, i.e. shoulder gussets make for a comfortable fit in riding position. <br /><br />Bottom line, this is a beefy shirt that is stylish and has armor protection. If that's you're looking for, you will not be disappointed with this purchase.
Great jacket for "cooler" temps.
By "cooler' I mean below 85 degrees. The jacket is quality and fits a little larger than others I have tried. I am 5'7 and 160lbs and I wear a size small. Jacket fits boxy as It is SLIGHTLY small in the shoulders and arms but SLIGHTLY big in the waist. Does not have very good airflow due to not having vents, but you can cuff the sleeves and I am comfortable to 85 degrees. When it is 90 and above it gets a little stuffy and uncomfortable. Hard to beat with the armor included and the quality!
Looks good, fits good.
I purchased the red flannel version and it looks great, perfect fit on me. I'm 6'0 180 lbs and I ordered a large. The back pad makes it a bit uncomfortable and isn't the same material as the armor on the shoulders and elbows, but it's easy to remove.
Buy for the looks, not the protection
Looks like a trusty old flannel shirt. The 'Kevlar lining' is a quartet of small patches on the elbows and shoulders, the included back protector is a simple chunk of foam with holes in it, and I only received a pair of elbow pads, no shoulder pads. Not sure if this was intentional or not; at this price I'm assuming it was.<br /><br />I'm a tall, slender guy; 6' 1" tall, 33" chest, 32" waist, 26" arms, athletic but not bulky, and I ordered a Large according to the chart. Too baggy, even with the armor; the pads just flop around unless I hunch up. I'd probably be fine with a Medium or if I layered up a bit.<br /><br />The zippers are YKK, and just as good as expected. They'll probably outlast the rest of the shirt. The snaps come in two slightly different varieties - the cuff snaps, pocket snaps, and most of the main snaps are the first type, and they're all just a tad looser than I'd like. They do the job, but pop open if you bump them the wrong way. The collar snaps and bottom-most main snap are a hint smaller and significantly tighter. I was worried I'd rip the shirt the first time I tried to pull the collar loose. They might ease up over time.<br /><br />The interior concealed carry pocket is a neat touch that I wish I could use properly, but I live in California, so it's just another pocket for me. :(<br /><br />All in all, it's a nice, casual looking shirt that might save you in a short tumble. If you go down at highway speed, though, all bets are off. I'll keep it for shorter, slower trips, but for anything involving the highway, I'll take my other jacket.
Pretty good. Fit is small.
Nice durable shirt. Get it 2X larger than you normally would. They fit small. Im normally a 2X and had to get a 4x which is still snug.
LIKE IT!
I bought size L as my usual size is M. its fit well due to the shoulders, back and elbows amour. It's keep me worm at 18 degrees Celsius on highway.
Great around town jacket.
Good shirt - comfortable
Looks good - feels good - love the protection and styling - only thing is that for some reason - the front of this shirt "flaps" against my stomach while riding and is VERY irritating. Don't know why. I've tried everything - it happens more to the just the right side - which just so happens - is where I had my right kidney removed because of kidney cancer and it flaps right against the scar - so yeah - <br /><br />But really can't imagine anyone else experiences this....
Sizing not even close. Cost a fortune to ship.
Sizing was very very small relative to the sizing measurements provided on the website. Didn't fit. Ended up paying for shipping, and customs. To ship it back, which I was also responsible for, wasn't worth it. Was able to sell locally to recoup some lost cost. Will never buy anything from here again. Not worth the gamble and fortune to ship to Canada. The product was nice, the experience was not.
Highway 21 Marksman Flannel
Love it!<br />It's a tad larger than I thought it would be. I can wear a large hoodie inside the medium flannel easily.
Good protection even in Phoenix summers
Great jacket overall, tons of airflow for those hotter days. For those who carry, pocket and sling work pretty good with a subcompact 45 or smaller frames. If you are taller and lankier like me, sleeve length might be an issue, size up if possible. I am 6'2, my arms are almost 36 inches and I'm in a large for perspective, a little longer arms than most. Still have about 2 inches of a "sun bracelet" going.
Great quality. Great value.
I would definitely recommend this jacket. The fit is perfect for me. Great look and quality made. I woul love to see this in more color chouces. I would definitely buy another one.
Solid value
This shirt feels well constructed and has ample room for movement without feeling like wearing a tent. <br />Only downside - The description listed zippered hand warmer pockets - this shirt does not have them.
Ok but doubt on elbow armor position
I am 5' 9" and 180lbs.<br />Ordered LG size and seems the elbow armor position is at arm not exactly elbow.
Somethings amiss!!!!!
Looks great but the button fell off the the item. I have no idea where or when. It fits great, looks great and is comfortable.
Love the look and overall feel. I am 5'11" and 250lbs fit well with or without the pads. The only issue for me is the sleeves are a little long, but no bad enough not to wear on the bike.
buy 1 size larger than you normally wear
I have not had a chance to wear this item yet but, I can advise anyone considering ordering this product to order a size larger than you normally wear in regular flannels.<br /><br />This riding shirt does appear to be of good quality and i'm looking forward to receiving the correctly sized version of this shirt.
GREAT SHIRT!
Great price, great fit, great for summer rides! GREAT!
Runs way small... be warned.
Much smaller than the size chart indicated. Almost like it was tagged the wrong size. Given I'm a big guy, and ordered the largest size available, I have to hang on to it until I (hopefully) lose enough weight to use it. Otherwise, a wasted purchase for me.
Great riding jacket. Wish it had pockets on the outside
very niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice material
very niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice material
Great fall riding jacket
Love this jacket, wife thinks i look like a lumberjack so she bought me another one which is a win win. I usually throw a layer underneath and a vest on when the temp drops below 50 and it holds up great. Could use an inside pocket
decent flannel, very thick
great flannel just a little too warm. <br />used it a lot and after one season the color had faded pretty substantially. great piece none the less. ended up selling it to a buddy so i didnt have it for more than one season.
Flannel
Have almost every flannel for my husband that they make. Great quaint fit and style worn alone or under a vest
Great buy!
Fast shipping, came on expected date. Super comfortable and lightweight, ordered a large and fits great. concealed carry pocket is a huge plus. I do wish it had normal pockets, but I knew it didn't when I ordered it.
