I was looking for a good first three season jacket with the protection of leather but with the airflow of mesh. I settled on the Joe Rocket Radar Dark jacket, and I am not disappointed.
The sizing is true to size, and fits exactly how it should. With the liner in though, i don't expect to be able to wear much more than a thin shirt underneath, so size up if you plan on wearing additional layers underneath.
The RevZilla video shows a large hump on the back of the jacket, which I believe is an old model. The 2011 model does not have this hump, and is styled in a very low key aggressive styling.
I'm happy with this jacket, and I feel safe and protected whenever I'm wearing it. I'm glad I got it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Icon Contra Jacket From the shadowy realm of street-styled textile jackets, Icon again tapped their mx roots and tripled into the main. Contra is technically perfect - superior in fit and function to all that came before. Ultra durable nylons are strategically patterned into the industries finest no-bind fit. Fighter mesh panels allow intake and exhaust airflow dramatically reducing the chance of overheating. A full complement of Icon's internal CE approved Field Armor provide ample street insurance. Finally, ballistic rubber badging puts the classy in this chassis. Zip one up and become a believer, this is the ultimate in textile perfection. Durable nylon textile chassis Heavyweight ballistic impact panels Removable CE Field Armor impact protector elbow Removable CE Field Armor impact protector shoulder Removable dual-density foam back pad Removable insulated liner Internal zippered pocket for secure storage Relaxed Icon fit Imported
My measurements are all messed up. Thoughts?
My sleeve is a 30 which shows up as a small and my chest is 39 which shows up as a large i believe. What size do you think would fit me best?
Always measure for the chest. The sleeves may be a little long on you but at least the jacket will fit.

Alpinestars Verona Air Jacket A mid-length, warm weather commuting jacket featuring a sport bike cut, premium protection and durable shell in a sleek, understated design. Dual 450D polyester outer shell with mesh inserts and double PU coating provides excellent ventilation and abrasion resistance. Removable CE certified Bio Armor elbow and shoulder protectors provide excellent impact protection while being incredibly lightweight and slim, allowing for a comfortable fit. Alpinestars Bionic chest pads and CE certified RC back protector available as optional accessories. Exclusive City Collection trims and embroidered labels give a stylish, minimalist design. Micro-Velcro waist adjustment flap allows custom fit
Does this have any back protection?
I'm guessing not, judging from the video and the description, but it can't hurt to ask.
Yes, it has a removable foam pad which can be upgraded to better armor.
