Alpinestars Bionic Action V2 Motocross Protection Jacket, High-Impact Resistance

I'm 5'10", 160 lbs, 40" chest, 32" waist with a lean build. The medium fits good/snug. I tried a large and could have worn that, but I think the pads would have moved around a bit. I can wear it next to skin when it's hot or with a thin under layer when it's cooler. The arms are a good length, but it's a little short in the waist - it's ok, but I can't tuck it in to my pants. The armor is CE level 1. It's the hard, thick, not flexible stuff. You are going to feel it on you like a suit of armor - at first. The armor is positioned right and has enough soft padding under it that after riding for a bit, I forget it's there. I also tried the Fox Racing Titan Sport armor and found Alpinestars to be more comfortable and less bulky feeling. My only real small complaint is the lack of adjustability. The straps around your sides adjust fine. The straps that connect the chest plate to the shoulder plate and to the back have no adjustability. They are elastic and can be removed from the back and front, but are sewn onto the shoulders and have no way to adjust length. I got this for dual sport riding. I'm very happy with it and would buy it again.

Jacket fits great and is very comfortable. The armor is well fitted in the places in should be without feeling uncomfortable, I found it to be pretty secure and didn't seem to slide around or move while I was wearing it. I am 5'8 170 pounds, and have an athletic build so I ordered a large and it fits perfect while still feeling secure and snug. It feels pretty breathable too which is nice for the heat. The armor isn't very low profile especially in the shoulder's, but as long as it does it's job to protect that's what matters.

230 6'2 xxl was a little tight but i bought one of the 60 dollars ones first (offbrand) and its worlds apart the differences. It fits great seems well made. Now i haven't rode with it on yet so i may have to do an update. I can say the price is worth the quality. Dont mess with anything less then these ones. The cheapo's are 10x different from this. hope this helps because its hard when your shopping for protection.

I got the gloves and then I found lots of skinny riders wearing this jacket. Fell in love with....I'm a true women's 2x I'm also 5'4 and the women's version which would have been so much nicer to have for contour/shape reasons, it only went to Large and since it all runs small that was out of the question. I have a large chest and a decent tummy. I emailed the company they told me to look for bigger sizes in the men's... Frustrating but okay. Got the biggest size 2x and it DOES fit. However I do feel that the torso is incredibly short which makes my tummy roll push out the bottom which makes it a little uncomfortable/ not flattering. However if it's gonna protect me and for the price--- I'll deal. Hopefully I'll slim down and it won't really matter but for right now it's cool. I like that it's all mesh and can go under other clothes for layering purposes. It comes with more protection than most jackets- given the front and back added padding which is what drew me to want this plus the mesh lightweight aspect. Like any other review if you're a little rounder in the front it'll be a little annoying but it has SOME stretch to it. If it didn't it woulda never zipped over my bewbs.. havent wore it out riding yet but when I get to going on highways I will be wearing this.

Overall fit is good, definitely feels like it will provide good protection while still being lightweight. Definitely order one size bigger though because it runs on the smaller side.

True to size no issues good quality

For this much money? Do I feel safer? Not exactly. I am 147, 5"6 and fit. They sent me a kids 1st time around then 2nd order got the right size witch its a medium. It fits snug as it should but I also have a pull over on made with good material adidas, thats on then the gear. I want to be able to take it off anytime. Its hard to hold my arms up to use my phone for more then 5 minutes at a time its a hard plastic I was expecting the hard / firm bendable material. A bit hard to take a drink of your water because it's hard plastic. And doesn't bend in the elbows, even when you make sure its where it should be, it's still tough, so it's definitely made for a riding only if you're gonna hang out with other bikers, probably best to take it off, worth the money? Not sure but I'm sure it saves a good fair bit of my skin if I did ever fall

It's a bit unusual, it feels weird, like I'm naked. The plastic is hard and rigid, it barely bends. The fabric is stretchy and thin, not hot. For some reason, the seams are on the outside. I'm 1m80cm / 5'10 and under 100kg / 220lbs. My regular size XL, but i took XXL, because there were a lot of reviews saying that they were smaller. I haven’t ridden in it yet, but I’m sure it will be comfortable in the summer. I'll add a review later after a detailed test.

I feel very safe in this. It is made extremely well. I'm able to ride and not get too hot due to the beautiful mesh that lets you breathe. The protection level is phenomenal. This is worth every penny. I wish there was something like this for your lower body. I have their kneepads, but I don't feel protected around my hip and bum.

Looks good to short in body returned

This jacket is very small. Also if you want to return the item be aware that you have to pay for the shipping which is very poor shipment handling I would just don’t buy from this seller there are more sellers that you won’t have to pay for the shipment

Fit to size, great quality, lots of padding

Another review said size up so I did. Very happy, elbows were a little sore from the pressure of the pads but I loosened them and it went away. Looks great with a high collar hoodie/jacket underneath, haven’t crashed yet but I’ll leave another review when I do
