Speed and Strength True Romance Women's Armored Moto Shirt

I love this shirt. It gives me the right amount of coverage, protection and style. This would have gotten a 5 all around, however, it needs at least one pocket! When I go for a short joy ride and all I need is a standard pocket for my cell phone and keys. In this shirt, I have to think of carrying a purse to hold my things. In the future, I would love to see speed and strength think about this and add a functional pocket inside the jacket/shirt

My wife loves this shirt. She already had the Speed and Strength Fast Times hoodie/jacket, but wanted something a bit lighter for riding here in the Mojave Desert. The True Romance fit the bill perfectly. Her only complaint has been that the back protector feels a little big in the small size, but that may be more to her small stature.

I bought this jacket as an 'appearance' piece of gear. I normally ride a 2016 S1000R, and as such, most of my gear is tending towards the performance/high speed spectrum type of gear. However, I just finished getting my project bike, a 1983 CB650SC Nighthawk-turned-chopper, on the road, so I'm got this jacket to still have ATGATT, but fit the chopper 'look'. Yes, I'm okay with being that shallow.
I immediately took the back protector out. It's great quality, it's just awkwardly large for the jacket. I'll probably put it back in once I've shaved some of it down to make it smaller n fit my back better.
I LOVE that it's a hoodie! And the hood material is so soft! My hair does have a tendency to get tangled around the hood drawstrings unless I tuck them away though (even with my hair in a full French braid, some of it escapes and wraps around it).
The main thing I wish this jacket was is more breathable. It looks like flannel fabric, but there seems to be some sort of layer in it that prevents it from being actually breathable like a mesh summer jacket, which won't be so much fun when true North Carolina summer gets here, but I'll just switch to my mesh jacket at that point.
The other thing I wish this jacket, as with most jackets I buy, had was an outer pocket that was worth a d*mn. I can't fit my phone in the adorable little breast pockets. I can barely fit a credit card in there, let alone a wallet with my main cards and ID. So, I certainly hope my phone doesn't fall out of my pants pocket haha. Maybe I'll get a fanny pack :P (kidding)
All in all, glad I bought this, it's super comfy for when I want to go somewhere and have proper armor, but not necessarily be obviously wearing motorcycle gear. It is a little bulky for a normal flannel shirt, but it's not glaringly obvious that it's motorcycle gear.

Haven't touched my traditional riding jacket since I purchased this riding shirt. Love it!

The shirt fits a little snugger than I thought - but it's comfortable and looks great!

The armor is comfortable, I love the length - covers the butt while staying stylish. The shirt is a little thicker than I thought - but it's a great option for summer evenings or short rides!

I own this in 2 colors, in 2 different sizes. I first bought a 2xl because I'm chesty (36DDDD), and wanted to make sure it would fit if I wore something under it. Plenty of room, even a bit more than I would prefer. So I got one in an XL and it is a tight fit in the chest. But I like the airflow I get over my heavier jacket, which was the primary purpose. The chest pockets don't quite hold my phone so I use a pouch or small backpack. And I tie the hoodie strings or tuck them in good, otherwise they flap around and beat against my helmet. But I do really like it. Oh, it isn't true flannel fabric, but that doesn't bother me.
