Arms
This was to replace a 15 year old mesh jacket. And at 15% off I decided this grey Newport is nice looking and should flow lots of air. Has a rain liner you can and should wear on the outside. I say should, because I returned this jacket w/o hassle. The armor is just hard foam made by "norman", same as my old jacket and has the same back armor. Nothing to cheer about, not complaining either. I believe these jackets do not come in tall sizes. Thus the arms are a set length with plenty of room. The biggest issue is the arms' velcro adjusters. I am 5'9" 42 chest average build(180#) , I think average arms. The body of the jacket fit great. But the arm straps that are suppose to secure the elbow/forearm armor , sit right inside the elbow joint and Not the forearm. No matter the adjustment of strap the associated fabric 600denier bunches up and binds, forcing the interior fine mesh to rub and feel like sandpaper . Ultimately this strap should be ~2 inches towards the wrist ON the forearm not directly at the elbow. I tried the switchback-2 at another shop.... same issue. Met a rider who has a new olympia...hits him the same , .... but he kept it.
