"First off, I must commend the staff at sierra! I had one of the best experiences purchasing.... and returning for the right size.

I am 5'11 170lbs in shape, and I found the xl to be way to big for me, so that got me think..." Read Full Review »

Designed in Germany; made where...?

"I use this jacket almost daily. I find myself looking forward to wearing it out (or handing it off to someone) so I can justify buying something better. Not bad for the price, but I think Heine Gericke should be a little more careful about what they put their name on. It's a touring length jacket, but the zipper doesn't open from the bottom.

"I tour on my 1998 CBR900RR sports bike. I first wore this jacket on a four day 2500 km trip through the Canadian Rocky Mountains with a mix of heavy rain, strong winds and warm sunny days (cruising at high speed). It kept me dry and comfortable. I wore just a wicking base layer underneath (T-shirt) …"  Read Full Review »

"This jacket is very cool. I think it looks way better in person than in the pictures. All the riders I know around here (Bainbridge Island, WA) either have glitzy Joe Speed Racer style jackets, or boring rain jackets.

This has the performance of the foul weather gear with very cool, subtle styl …"  Read Full Review »
