Any thoughts form the ladies on this?
I tried this jacket on at a shop on Saturday and loved the fit. I don't necessarily like the whole Gold Digger and that can be gotten rid of.
Retail on this at the shop was $226. Newenough.com has this for $85 and ebay for 99.
I like the white/black, but it seems the only XL left are blues.

It's not really my taste, however, it does look to be cut a little longer than the styles I tend to gravitate to, which would be a plus.

the gold digger part can be covered up with a patch. My dig on it is if it fits and it is comfy...then that's most of the battle...It's so hard to find gear that fits well....

Yup, exactly Darci. I have a hard time finding stuff that fits. I'm not a size 2 and that's what most shops carry. I like longer jackets because they don't ride up in the back and then your back gets burned riding on a hot day. I also have boobs that don't always fit nicely into most jackets.
Fugi can't order this one directly so I have to get it elsewhere. His cost at a local shop is $129. eBay has a XL for 99, 13 for shipping. Most everybody else only has this in M and L.
Might have to go for the eBay one . . . . somebody might pick up the cost for my birthday!! HINT HINT HINT HINT . . . damn will leave this open so he can read it.

I like the tattoo kinda look!
BTW girls aren't the only ones who have trouble finding riding gear that fits. I'm not European which means the standard sizing system doesn't apply and with a gut it took 2 orders to get my jacket right because of course they don't carry man sizes in the store.

Whoohoo - a XL is on its way to me right now. Fugi told me to go ahead and get it as my birthday gift.
It better get here before the rally -- coming from Utah.

It is definately a nice jacket. Saw it at the store. I liked it but same as u..it would be perfect without the "gold digger" label!

Do you like it? Mine is similar. It's Joe Rocket Cleo II. I had it on at the rally.

It has a LITTLE bling bling but not overdone IMO. Nice fit and coverage too.

I absolutely love my jacket. It vents very well too - MUCH better than my Icon Merc Jacket. It was pretty hot here by us on Sunday and I wore it over a tank top to go for crabs, I was never hot at all.
The fit is awesome too.
My only gripe is that I'm used to having my iPod in the left side inside chest pocket . . . the pocket is on the right with this new jacket. This will just take some getting used to :)

I love the jacket! Actually almost got one for myself but decided to wait till I have more money (little broke since we're going to Moto GP). It's awesome looking!
