Thumbs up

I just bought a Teknic Tucson jacket. It has a similar fit to the Sturgis.
I am 6'2", 210lb. with a 34 inch waist. It actually fites around the shoulders and seals up around the waist. Most typical bike jackets fit me like a tent in the waist if they fit right in the shoulders.


I guess you could say it is a more "euro" fit, but it all depends on how you are built. Either way, it seems to be a damn quality jacket. Shouder, elbow and back armor. Full sleeve zip in liner, rear belt loop hook, snap in neck warmer. I love it.

chesau,
Took a while for me to get back but thanks for the response. I actually ordered a Firstgear Powercruiser jacket but just sent it back. Cool jacket but the sleeves fit reeeaaally tight like a skin tight roadracer type jacket.

I want something that fits fairly snug but not that tight.
I am 5'10" and 180 so I don't need the big barrel sized body that a lot of jackets have. I may give that Teknic Sturgis jacket a shot.
