Milwaukee Leather MLM1522 Men's ‘Vented’ Retro Brown Leather Motorcycle Jacket

This jacket is solid and heavy. The styling is good, but that is subjective. The fit is pretty much spot on, trending towards generous. Definitely not tight. Careful examination shows excellent quality in construction. The zip-out liner is substantial and is full sleeve, very nice. The pocket storage system is almost identical to my old 1st generation Firstgear Kilimanjaro jacket, which means it is well thought out and very useful. The provision for a Mp3 player with the pocket and earphone cord is a nice touch, as are the provisions for carrying a concealed pistol if so desired. The patch pocket access is genius, allowing patches to be sewn on easily. Overall I'd say this jacket is perfect for all but the warmest days. Exceptional value for a great jacket, it is hard to go wrong with this one if you need a good solid jacket. *Note: the actual color is a few shades darker brown than the pictures. I'd say about the same shade as an issue A-2 leather jacket. A nice deep rich brown.

I ordered a small and the jacket I received is 25” across the chest. Will not fit me and not even close to the measurement listed for small in the chart. There is no smaller size that possibly could fit my 38-40” chest so an exchange is not possible but their returns portal wants me to pay $20 to ship it back because only exchanges are covered by the $3 shipment insurance I was tricked into automatically buying. I have reached out to CS but haven’t heard back in over 48 hours. Buyer beware.

Awesome

Love it!

Looks just like the picture. Nice quality leather. Very heavy jacket. Arrived quickly after order.

Leather was good Quality and I like the features. My only gripe was when I checked all the zippers and snaps (which I ALWAYS do when buying on here), two of the snaps pulled right out of the rivots. Already had a nightmare experience returning gloves from this site. Just decided to epoxy them on. Not sure what happened to the easy return policy....Didn't expect 'Harley' quality for and200, but fresh out of the package!

Well fitting heavy leather.

This just arrived today (1-Jun-2021), so I haven't ridden with it yet, FYI. Happily, it's darker and more rich than what the photos show. It fits well (based on the sizing chart I ordered a medium. I'm 6' 0' and an athletic 190: 33' waist) with room for thick flannels in the fall. It is a 'cruiser' jacket, so it's a bit more roomy in the midsection than a cafe style jacket. The conceal pockets, one on each side, are HUGE. I can easily put my full sized 1911 in there if I wanted to. Zippers are good and heavy duty and run well, as you'd expect from YYK. Leather seemed a bit 'plasticy' when I pulled it out of the box which had me worried, but I laid it out in the sun for 30 min and applied a healthy application of mink oil. The leather drank it up and it's like a different jacket. Color darkened, as expected, and came to life. I'll prob do another application in a few weeks. If I'm being critical I'll take issue with the main external pockets. They are very small due to the vent zippers that run the length of the front of the jacket. There is a lot of storage in side, which is cool, but at the sacrifice of those exterior hand pockets. They are about 3/4 of what you'd expect. I can get my hand in there, but it's snug. Leather on the sleeves is a bit thinner than I'd like, but for $171.00 (what I paid with Memorial Day coupon), this jacket is a steal. Liner comes in and out easy enough. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 due to size of hand pockets and leather being a bit thinner than I'd like on the sleeves and the interior liner that the removeable liner attaches to seems very thin. I expect that to show wear and start to rip before anything else. But those are really small issues. Seems like a great jacket overall. Having applied mink oil to every inch the stitching all looks solid and leather is nice.

Love it. I bought one in black two years ago but after a bit of a weight gain I needed an XL size so this is My second purchase of this jacket. Decided to get the brown one this time to match the bags on My bike. Awesome jacket !!Fits perfect . The color is solid and even all over. Quality is perfect .

Absolutely LOVE this jacket. Fits amazing, I love the soft leather. Craftsmanship is like no other. I know this will last me for years in and off the bike. Price was amazing. Worth 10 times what I paid for it
