How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsFantastic quality, fit, and value for money! It's an excellent jacket! Thanks.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 October 2021
I read through all the feedback for sizes and fit before selecting the 4XL size for myself.
Recently I have purchased a maxi scooter and needed a new jacket.
The size range states the 4XL is for a 50" chest and 48" stomach, being 63 years old with too many extra pounds on board my measurements were 48" chest and 46" stomach with a 38" waist.
Also I am short at 5'6" but read that the arm length of the 4XL was 61cm or 24".
I received the jacket just 2 days after ordering and the first thing which struck me was the weight, it feels heavy and substantial.
After unpacking it I could see the quality of the leather is great with good suppleness while being thick offering good protection.
Compared to a leather bikers jacket I had 30 years ago (I can put it on but no chance to zip up over the older aged tum!) this jacket has the built in spine, shoulder and elbow padding which is also excellent if I should happen to come off for any reason.
It fits me really well with the belt pulling the waistline in under my paunch, getting the 4XL was the perfect choice as it does not feel too large while I am still able to get a fleece on over my T-shirt for colder days.
The sleeves are just right and the cuff zips snug it up so my gloves will pull over the cuffs.
Inside on the left is a zip up pocket and on the right side a phone pocket with velcro closing the top.
Please see the photos I have added of the front, back, and interior showing the inside pockets, lining and spine protector pad.
All round this jacket offers great style, quality, fit and weather protection, at the same time giving solid protection in the event of an accident.
My Richa Rain Warrior waterproof XXL jacket fits over this leather jacket comfortably for those really wet weather rides.
I am very pleased with the product at a terrific and affordable price of just £79.99.
Many thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars Really pleased.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2019
Size Name: 4XLVerified Purchase
Nice, heavy, jacket. Sizing is spot on for chest size. I'm a bit wider round the middle (working on that) waist could have done with 5xl but chest needs 4xl. So bought the 4xl, or the shoulders would bag in the wind.

There's some give in the leather, so it will stretch a bit, but I'm on a diet anyway. :(

Quality wise. Nice heavy leather, well stitched. Feels good on, sleeves are the right length. Good solid zips, and there is a back zip to join to your trousers as well.

2 inside pockets, one in the lining, and one on the lining with a velcro tab, for your mobile phone.

At the price, what's to lose? I'll be honest, last time I bought a leather jacket in this style was 20 years ago, it wasn't as well made, had no armour (did I mention this has shoulder, back and elbow pads?), and cost me nearly £80. You won't be sorry with this one. I'm really pleased with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really happy
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 March 2019
Size Name: MVerified Purchase
This is the third Brando-style leather jacket I've ordered from Amazon.

The other two (from different vendors), I had to return either because they were very poor quality, studs which were just decorative and didn't have sockets, had unlined sleeves, or a loose mesh lining which pulled itself inside out when you removed your arm from the sleeve.

I assumed all jackets like this would be pretty similar, but there's a lot of crappy ones out there, so beware. Some of them were far more expensive than this one too.

I'm happy to say though, that this jacket is really great quality, heavy genuine leather and well designed. It's very similar to my previous jacket, which is really what I was hoping for.

The armor pieces (back, shoulders and elbows) are made from some sort of strong semi-rigid rubber, but there are velcro slits in the lining allowing you to remove them all easily

The back and sleeves of the jacket are lined and stitched in nicely, so it doesn't just pull itself out when you remove the jacket.

I ordered a Medium (40" chest) and it matched the size of my previous jacket exactly. Some reviewers are complaining about the sizing being too small, so I suspect it might be once you get into the larger sizes. I guess it's also possible their previous jacket was mis-sized, rather than this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely a proper leather jacket for motorcyclists - ideal for cruiser riders
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 April 2021
Size Name: 4XLVerified Purchase
I ordered this Marlon Brando style leather jacket because my old leather jacket had got too tight for me.

This jacket is very good value at the price, and comfortable for riding a motorcycle. I ordered it in the 4XL size and it is a good fit, although quite tight at the bottom of the jacket. This may be because I am of rather more 'mature' years (ahem!), with 48 inch bust, 42 inch waist and 46 inch hips! I ordered the man's jacket although I am a woman, because the female jackets are always cut too tight. I have to start off the zip at the bottom while it is over my waist, then pull it down a bit once it's done up. The zip is fortunately a very substantial YKK one. I don't know why most biker clothing (but not this jacket, fortunately) is made in such narrow sizes, as if motorcycle riders are all as thin as drainpipes! Bikers (particularly cruiser riders who ride Japanese metric cruisers or Harley Davidisons, if they can afford a Harley) tend to be around my age, in their 40s-70s.

The jacket has a very useful smartphone pocket inside, which is big enough for my 6.6 inch mobile phone. There is also an inside zipped pocket for your license and insurance doc. There are three further zipped outside pockets for wallet/purse, ear-bud defenders, thin plastic gloves for filling up during these Covid-19 times, or whatever.

The jacket is made from good quality top grain genuine leather and does have padding pockets inside with elbow and back protector padding already in it.

The jacket has zips at the cuffs, which can be done up so that you can get a pair of motorcycle gloves over them.

It is definitely a proper biker jacket for motorcycle riders, not a 'fashion jacket'. It is heavy and substantial!

In the 4X size I can get a tee-shirt and a couple of thin long-sleeve tops under it, but struggle if I want to wear a thick sweatshirt underneath as well. I have been warm enough on chilly Spring days in the jacket (just a few degree above zero), but you might want to buy a larger size for Winter riding, if you plan to wear a lot of clothes underneath (or just wear a Winter motorcycle jacket.)

Hope that's some help.

Looks nice and is comfy to wear but you get what you pay for.

The reason it's got such a low review is the fact it started to fall apart within a week of owning it. Due to me having patches sewn on the jacket I was unable to return it.

The metal clips/rivets fell out while just walking around in the jacket.

The zip that can be attached to biker pants ripped off with ease while riding. (Jacket was loose.

Fabric inside has started to wear down after use over a couple of weeks.

Not sure how much I trust that this is safe for Motorbikers.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great jacket
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 November 2020
Size Name: 3XLVerified Purchase
I carefully read other peoples reviews and decided to risk buying this jacket.
It reminds me of biking in my teens and its the same quality I remember from those days. It has that reassuring weight and quality feel, as well as looking great. The Zips are good heavy duty and it feels like its made to last. The leather is a little still but will wear in with use. Value for money is excellent either as a summer biker jacket or Casual jacket. Thanks everyone else for reviewing. It arrived next day too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent; but beware if you have a beer belly.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 August 2019
Size Name: XXLVerified Purchase
This is an excellent product with very good, sturdy leather. I bought a 2XL because I have a 46'' chest.
But, just a warning, it's a bit 'tight' around the belly if you carry a beer gut (as I do). It's obviously made for people in better condition than me. I suspected it might be the case when I ordered. So, I'll keep this one as I can just about zip it up and I'll probably be wearing it open anyway. But I'll be getting another in 3XL before Winter. For this price I can afford it. Thanks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing value, exceptional quality.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 August 2018
Size Name: XLVerified Purchase
I've been looking for this style of jacket for some time now. Maybe I'm a bit slow but it never occurred to me to look on Amazon. All the jackets I ever found seemed to be either too modern or, if I did find one such as I always used to wear, it was way too expensive.
This jacket, however, is a real find. I wasn't expecting much at this price, but boy was I pleasantly surprised. The hide is thick and heavy, while the stitching couldn't be better. There's also a good bit of armour on the back, shoulders, and elbows. I have to confess though, I removed the armour straight away. I find it uncomfortable and let's face it, when last I owned a jacket like this, if your mates had seen such mamby pampy protection you would've been laughed out of the pub! Foolhardy perhaps, but....
My only complaint is the smell. There's a distinct 'chemical' aroma that overpowers the lovely new leather smell. Still, I expect that'll soon wear off.
All in all, I'm absolutely delighted.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Quality Product
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 July 2019
Size Name: LVerified Purchase
This is a very good jacket, made from fairly high-quality leather. Importantly, it is not simply a "fashion piece"; it has shielding (removable) at several important points in the event of a spill. As a motorcyclist, practicality was one of my biggest concerns. This fits my requirements. My only reservation about the buying process is that the fit (between "M-5XL" are offered) has to be on a basis of guess; a more precise guide taking chest measurement into account would have been very welcome. As was, "L" fits me very well indeed. I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
