    Nice looking jacket, it looks quite a soft leather and i see it's only 1mm thick,i would be looking for at least 1.2mm or 1.4mm would be even better for a motorbike jacket..unless it's kangaroo leather which is a lot stronger but you would be big bucks for that

    I think it just meant to be a fashion jacket, surely not for serious riding??

    I think so, although i notice it has Knox protectors in the elbow and shoulder and you can fit a back protector in it,but it's probably more suited as a casual jacket

    Not that jacket but I bought the mugello one.
    So I find that very good. High quality jacket, fits well. Comfortable and durable.
    Had mine over a year no visible fading/ wear to the jacket at all.
    I wear it daily.
    So whilst I can't comment on your one I would expect it to be made to the same standard as mine.

    Thanks all for your feedback. Tried on a few retro style leather jackets today and ended up purchasing a Hestons ace vintage jacket, which I think is great looking and already comes as standard with armour in the elbows, shoulders and a back protecter. Got a great deal on it too.
