anyone have any experience with SHIFT racing jackets? im either a M or L cuz my dimensions fall into ranges from both sizes =\
are they naturally loose? or snug?

I have one, mine fits pretty snug, though I do need one size larger lol. So I guess my answer wouldn't be a good one. But all in all it's a great jacket.

1- which shift jacket
Shift Racing Airborne Mesh Jacket

2- what size jacket
XL

3- your weight
about 210 sadly

4- your height
5'6"

5- your waist
about 38

6- chest size
around 34 I believe

For me the jacket fits just fine. I only wish it had some adjustments for the arms to make them fit a little more secure. The armor is nice and contoured so it doesn't put any pressure points on you. The one I have breaths nicely especially at speed which is a godsend here in central FL. The sleeves are long enough (on me anyway) that they cover my wrists quite nicely. Overall I think the Shift Racing jackets are a good product and will create some good competition for the more well known brands here in the states.

I have a Shift Fuse, size M.

I'm 5'10 and 170 lbs and it fits me perfect.
