This is a great jacket for the price. I really liked the look of it when I saw it online, but was somewhat apprehensive since I've never tried this brand. I normally wear Alpinestars, but I wanted a new textile jacket since I already own leather and mesh ones. The jacket feels really sturdy, like it would hold up in a crash. Good stitchings and plenty of pockets and features. I test rode with the jacket on a cold night with just a waffle shirt underneath, and it kept me warm, so I'm not sure how hot it'll get in higher temps. But there are two zippers on the arms for ventilation, so no worries.
The arms were not long like some people complained about, they fit me perfect. But the body was a bit long. I had to open up the two zippers on the back bottom (great feature!) to pull the jacket down over my butt so the upper back portion of the jacket wasn't rising up. I wasn't too worried about the ugly inner leopard print, since none of it would show once I had the jacket zipped up. However, since I have to open up those two back zippers, they have leopard showing inside the openings. Probably the only complaint I have about this jacket, and it's very insignificant to me.
Definitely runs big. I normally wear a medium and the small fits me perfect!
Of course, shout out to Revzilla for getting it to me super fast at an APO location! Thank you!

Does this jacket have a 360 degree zipper to attach to the track pants?
I'd like to use this item on track days, but I know that most require 360 degree zippers to the lowers to qualify as a suit. I'm just curious as to whether or not these do. Thanks!
No, it does not have 360 zippers. It does have two button attachments in the back inside for pants.
