Dainese Alien Perforated Leather Jacket A sports look and contemporary styling come together in this jacket dedicated to those in search of a technical jacket that provides protection at no expense to comfort and details, like the inserts in Nubuck leather and anodized aluminum. Top level safety is ensured by highly-resistant D-Skin leather, homologated protectors, co-injected shoulders with aluminum inserts, and the chance to increase the protective level by inserting the back protector and Thorax chest protectors in the pockets provided. Absolute ergonomics and comfort are guaranteed by ample inserts in elasticated fabric, side and collar adjustment possibilities, the 3D Bubble liner and jacket-pants fastening ability. Features Summer version (perforated leather) Composite protectors certified to EN 1621.1/97 Standard Co-injected shoulder with aluminum insert D-Skin leather Nabuk leather Inserts in elasticated fabric Adjustment strap on neck Waist adjustment Jacket-trousers fastening system Fixed 3D-Bubble liner air spaces Sanitized lining Pocket for Dainese G1 or G2 back protector Soft inserts Reflective inserts 2 outside pockets Internal pocket Pelle perforata (Italian patent pending) Official Product Name Dainese Alien Pelle Estivo

Great jacket, features and fit are great. Had to get a 54 because of my shoulders, only thing that I dislike is the forearm size down by the wrists. Wish that it could tapper down a little sharper, using gauntlet gloves makes it a little uncomfortable. But over all feel of the leather is great and comfort levels are what you pay for. Great jacket.

The fit is great when your not behind the wheel. The bulk of the glove is pretty evident when you are having to grab the break and clutch levers. I feel very constricted. I'm pretty sure that the reverse stitching makes up for a big chunk of the gloves design problem. When you move you fingers around while trying to grab the clutch lever it makes it catch and if your having to respond to something fast I see this as a problem, the comfort of the glove is great just which they could cut down on the bulk.

Great glove, have yet been able to try out these gloves due to alaska still has snow on the ground. Over all fit is spot on for circumference of hand, I wish the pinky finger was a little smaller (feels like its wearing an over sized coat) but I'm sure it might be different for other. Also the thumb is a little long about a good 1/4" longer. It's not that big of a bother but I might just have someone sew it to my size. Over all I'm happy with the product, feels a little snug when you first try but it breaks in when wearing it for a bit around the house.
