Looks like my girlfriend wants to get me a new leather jacket for the street for Christmas. If I want to stick with A-Stars, seems the best they've got is the S-MX.
Does anyone have one of these that can offer a review?
Also, I'm hesitant to let her drop $600 on a jacket that may or may not fit and I can't find one of these in any shop anywhere. So does anyone know how they fit?
My race leathers are Alpinestars EU 50/US 40. I'm 5'8" and 150 lb, so pretty skinny. I've tried on a TZ-1 in size 42 and it must have been too big because in a rider's tuck it jammed up into my neck in front. Yet I've tried on another one of their jackets (I believe it was the "Stage"), which seemed to fit well except for it would bunch up in the stomach in a rider's tuck, and it was a 44. So that's got me all confused.
Any help would be appreciated.
