The Best MotorCycle Jacket I Ever Had.
The first thing that I noticed is the beauty of the jacket. Can't go wrong with any color as they all look really nice. The second thing is the price. It's quite expensive, BUT I have already forgotten about the price because to me, the perfect fit, the smell, the quality, comfort and awesomeness of the jacket in many ways overshadowed the price its price. Revzilla rewarded me a TeamZilla Cash Back - Now how freaking cool is that? Free Money! Keep in mind that this jacket though does not have many perforations, so it can get hot in there during hot days. I would suggest a jacket with many vents/perforations for the really hot summer days.

Incredible Jacket. Worth it.
I have fallen so deeply in love with this jacket. In a world where almost all motorcycle jackets seem to be made for guys with big beefy arms and torsos, it has been extremely difficult to find a slim-fitting jacket. This is it - and it is made absolutely impeccably. Also, it makes you look like a BAMF.
Dainese is expensive - but it is worth it. The protection is exceptional; arms all very well-covered with padding and hard armor where appropriate. I use the Dainese Wave back protector, which is seriously unnoticeable in this jacket. I wish Dainese gave it at least a little pad or something to start with instead of forcing you to buy the extra protector, but I digress.
The leather is beautiful and of extremely high quality - very sturdy and thick yet extremely flexible and comfortable. The fit is just unreal. It doesn't make you look a marshmallow. I am 130 lbs, 5' 8.5", very slim frame and the 46 fits me perfectly. (You are supposed to buy leather jackets a little snug, as they break in and stretch a bit with time)
This jacket is comfortable down to about 55 with just a T-shirt on. I have ridden in about 85 with it, and it is comfortable while moving - gets a bit toasty when stationary. Totally worth it for the protection and style. I chose this over the perforated one for the versatility; this is comfortable enough in warm weather and much better-suited to chilly weather.
If you can afford it, and want a jacket that actually fits to the body rather than floating around away from it, and want something that is made with extreme care and quality, buy this or another Dainese jacket.

great fit. awesome jacket
This jacket is one of the best money can buy. I was alittle skeptic about spending so much but well worth it. I am a size 48 - 50. The 50 fits great in every area. I have rode in 50 degree weather to 80. Not to hot or cold, it was perfect. I def feel like anything over 80 degrees would start to be alittle on the hot side. I barely notice that I am even wearing it, its so comfortable. Great jacket for the money. Also the smell of that leather is amazing. Highly recommended.

Great looking jacket, not so great fit.
The jacket is great, fits perfectly across the shoulders and snug against the body. The only problem is, at 6'3, I have very long arms, too long for the 52. I'm not sure how much wider the 54 is, since I haven't tried it. If they made a 52L that would be perfect for me. I wear a 42L business suit, for reference.
Protective features are awesome, I feel very safe with a lot of leather and thermoplastic between me and the road. Plus, it looks great with my alien leather pants and racing gloves.

Great look and fit
Love this Jacket. Great air flow. Fabulous look and style. I believe this jacket is perfect for Socal weather. I've never spent this much money on a jacket but it is well worth it. Fits like a glove yet very comfortable.
I have a sport touring bike and love more sport riding than touring. I was concerned the jacket would be too sporty for the Bike but it fits it well in my opinion

Best Leather Jacket for your money!
This is by far the best leather jacket. Style, Protection, Comfort, etc. This is the best!!! I love the design, it has reflectors on the elbow, and very comfortable. Strong protective pads. You can't go wrong with this.

100% confidence
The jacket has great armour (I have the back protector too) always feels comfortable and has pretty good ventilation. Theres enough pockets for wallets and phones too and I think the jacket looks great. It also doesn't flap about when riding.
