Buy XL over One size
I am 172cm 69kg and I bought one size up XL after much consideration. The imprementation is a comparison with size L. First of all, the L fits almost perfectly. If you wear it as it is, the L is smart, stylish, and nice. However, when I tried on the XL, it was just as OK. It is exactly one size too big, a little bit loose, but not to the point where it feels weird. If you wear a Comine chest and back protector inside, the XL is definitely better. I was able to avoid pigeon chest. Also, with the L, my back would stick out when I leaned forward, but the XL seems to work fine. In the picture, it looks the same in L or XL, but in reality it is definitely different, and yet not too different, which is exquisite. Even though it is one size larger, the fabric is firm, so I don't think it will flap around at street level speeds. View detail
Stylish.
The texture is as expected from Alpinestars. As the product name says "Asia", the size is just right for Japan. 172cm, 69kg, L size is almost JUST right for me.
The design is good and you will feel comfortable even if you wear it in the city. It looks Casual, but it is not suitable for midsummer because it is thick like a Riding jacket. I think it can cover from a slightly cooler season to a warmer season.
The shoulder and elbow protectors are soft, but the chest and spine protector are sold separately, so I tried Komine's chest spine protector (su Pulley Body) on inside. It is possible to wear it when riding, but it is too pigeon breasted. It is still better to use a special Protector because it is not suitable for walking in the city.
I was a little concerned about the back of the jacket when I leaned forward compared to a typical Riding jacket.
In any case, I think Alpinestars have a parenthesis quality that Japanese riding jackets, which are inevitably more geeky, do not have, and I like them very much. It is indeed Italy.

Stylish! But functional!
It is so fashionable that it is hard to believe that it is a riders jacket.
The inside chest pocket has a waterproof zip& and is wide and functional. The front chest pocket is small and might be better to be considered as a decoration.

This is the first time I have purchased a product from Bates.
I was looking for a Jacket for fall/winter and found a Sale item and was torn between size L or M. I decided on L based on the size chart.
My Size is 165 cm tall and 60 pounds, and I am a skinny guy.
It is a little too large, but it does not interfere with motorcycle riding.

Lightweight and waterproof
I chose size XL to wear over a L size Jacket, and it is just right without any tightness or flapping.
Design was not bad for Rough & Road, if anything it was good and I liked it, so I bought it.
JacketBody is lightweight, so I will use GunGun as a windproof and waterproof jacket all year round.
I actually got rained on for about 3 hours and the inside of the Jacket did not flood, but the Pocket under the Left was flooded, so you might not want to put anything in there that you don't want to get wet.
I think it would be tough to use it alone in mid-summer or mid-winter. In summer, it can be used when it rains. In winter, it would be better to wear Inner and Jacket, and put on this Jacket at the end.
The sewing is a little delicate in places, but nothing fatal, so I guess it's okay.
The balibali at the neck came in contact with the chin curtain of the helmet and frayed slightly, but this would not have been a problem if we had checked where it would hit beforehand and dealt with the problem Level.
There are adjustable belts to prevent flapping in places, so the fit can be adjusted to suit you.
Generally satisfied with Large

This product is worn over a Long Sleeve Shirt + Long Sleeve T-shirt of a certain Manufacturer's moisture wicking material.
The Inner Jacket feels slightly warm from the moment you put it on, and I rode in December and it was warm and comfortable.
Hood is a must in winter. I tried driving with it removed and found it very cold and uncomfortable around my neck.

For summer
I wanted a Jacket with removable sleeves because summer has been too hot lately.
There used to be a lot of AXIS so and so and sinisalo.
I'm not comfortable wearing only Motocross Jersey no matter how hot it gets, so I'm going to wear Body & Elbow guard with it.
I'm 176cm.85kg. and I'm a big guy.
This is quite Large tight, even in XL there is room to put a Guard underneath.

Almost as per Image
[How did you feel about the Fit?
Tight, and I hope it will fit in like Leather.
How was your experience with it?
There is no action pleated, but there is a stretchy fabric behind the shoulders so there is no tightness even when leaning forward.
Waxed cotton is windproof, but not insulating. It is a retro single jacket design, so it will look great in the city or on the road. I think it goes well with not only SCRAMBLER and TRACKER but also NeoRetroMotorcycle on the road.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
There is a little extra room around the neck, so on cold days, cold air can get into the neck.
What are the specs of the product, such as protector?
ProtectorStandard Equipment for shoulders, elbows, and back. shoulders and elbows are fairly solid protectors, but no CELevel is listed. Chest Protector is sold separately. There is a surface fastener for Chest Protector of the same brand.
How did it compare to other products?
Compare to:DEGNER18SJ-6 GoatLeather jacket
The main fabric is waxed cotton, so it does not have the stiffness of leather.
The deciding factor in the purchase
Because it was cheap at Sale.

Purchased for fall/winter
I am 176cm, 75kg, Waist 89 and have a bit of a metabolic syndrome around the tummy. I rode in the mountains of Kanagawa prefecture and Doshi village in October and November, the temperature was about 10-20℃, neither cold nor hot, just right. I am not sure if I will be able to ride through midwinter with thick innerwear, but I am glad I bought it. View detail
Should be selected based on the shoulder width of the Manufacturer dimension.
I ordered an XL because I thought it would be impossible for an overseas brand. However, when I put on the trainer inside, the arms are quite tight. The protector on the shoulder is very clear.
I was able to exchange it for an XXL and it felt like a loose fit and the silhouette exceeded my expectations.
Wearing Exactly might be a good idea, but I thought the Large size was better because the Protector is more noticeable.
By the way, 181cm 77kg

Satisfied
The design is calm and relaxed, without the logo assertiveness that is common in riding jackets, so I think it can be worn by people of all ages.
I am 176cm tall, 59kg, skinny, and the L size is just right for me.
I could also wear Uniqlo Down inside.
The Protector supplied is being replaced with the following.
Shoulder→Komine SK-812
Elbow→Komine SK-810
Back→RSThailand Chi TRV044 Size40
Chest→Komine SK-839 (with Daiso Surface Fastener attached)
Hood is mostly decorative.
It can be fastened with a Button, so there is no flapping while driving.
There are two Fasteners on the front, which makes it a bit cumbersome to put on.
Also, since there is nothing covering the Fastener, care must be taken not to scratch the Tank.

Cost-effective Jacket
Height 169 cm, weight 76 kg, shoulder width 50 cm, chest 110 cm, Waist 86 cm, and thanks to my hobby of muscle training, I am Firmly built, so Elf's Fake leather jacket is LW (Wide) and Exactly.
I was torn between a L or LL size, but I decided to go with the L based on the Instruction Manual and other postings.
It is not tight but not too tight, and even with a light down jacket, it was the right choice for Exactly.
I used to wear a jacket with a removable inner padding, but when it got hot and I took it off, the inner padding was too bulky to store, so I bought this one that allows me to wear LightDown as an inner padding.
The calm design allows you to get off your motorcycle without feeling uncomfortable, and the soft shell provides a certain degree of stretchability.
I wore it over a long T-shirt and a light down jacket for a short run. I felt the windproof performance was effective, and when I opened the zippers on the arms and underarms to test it, the wind came in well, so I think it can be used on days with large temperature differences in a day.
It is a cosy Jacket and I am glad I bought it.

Simple design. This is a solidly made Riding jacket.
I am 170 cm tall and weigh 75 kg, with a stocky build.
I originally ordered an XL, but both the shoulder width and sleeve length were too large, so I exchanged sizes and purchased an LSize.
The size is made to be large, as described in the product description, so it is comfortable and not too tight even if you wear an inner down inside.
It also has ventilation on the arms and underarms, which can be opened for good ventilation and use until early spring.
We ran at different elevations, and the ability to adjust with Inner and Ventilation is very highly appreciated.
The design also has a thin Riding jacket feel and does not feel out of place where the Motorcycle has been dismounted.
It is very heavy, but that helps to keep it from flopping around when running.
I think I made a very good purchase.

Can be worn in everyday wear if the Protector is removed in Casual!
What was important to you in selecting motorcycle wear?
(1) With Protector
(2) Not the Motorcycle style wear.
(3) Can be worn like everyday clothes.
These are the three points above.
The best match was this Elf LiberoHoodie.
It looks like an ordinary parka, but it has Protector firmly attached.
I just wonder if the Spinal Protector is a bit unreliable?
This one has been replaced by RSThailand Chi's TRV044Back Protector.
(Size is Exactly at 40Size♪)
I am 179cm 61kg, thin and L size was just right for me,
I purchased the 1SizeLarge size because I wear it inside in the winter.
If you are going to wear it in layers etc., you may want to choose a 1SizeLarge one.

Good Design
The design is such that it is hard to believe that it contains Protector and could be worn on a regular basis as well.
And yet, the Protector padSingle Body was solid, secure, and convincing.
There is no particular breathability, and I was able to ride in early spring without getting cold, but on the other hand, it might be hot when the temperature exceeds around 25°C during the day.

Simple design for both on-road and off-road use
Jacket without Protector.
I have recently started going off-road and was looking for a Jacket that I can use both on and off-road.
The fabric is rather thick and firm, so I think it is Exactly for spring and fall.
I also have a riding jacket with protector, but I use it differently. In the season when the temperature difference between morning and afternoon is large, I put on the inner protector, put on a layer of clothes inside, and put this jacket on top of the inner protector. It is a good jacket to wear a little loosely and adjust the coldness by the number of layers inside.
Since it does not have a protector, it may be useful as street wear. In that case, it can be used in late fall or later, or in colder seasons.
The sleeves can be removed from the shoulders, so there will be more scenes to wear.
Above all, I like the simple design and unobtrusive logo display.
I purchased a LSize, but I think it is a Large size rather than the LSize of the general public.
