nice jacket. how does it fit you?

is that you in the pictures? :D

uh, i guess it fits fine, yeah thats me, lol :D

I don't see what makes it a womens jacket. If it fits you and you're happy with it, use it. Much better than not having something to protect you.

I know woman's clothing have the buttons on the opposite side from mens shirts. Does that apply to zippers too?

yeah, the zippers are on the opposite side, are these jackets usually short? it comes down to the top of my pants while standing up

its fine if it were pink you'd have an issue

yeah sport bike jackets are usually a bit shorter, its just the style

Why is this? Do they know something we don't?

And sexy jacket OP :p

Seriously, though...as long as there aren't pre-molded boobs out front and a giant hello-kitty graphic on the back...I think you're good to go. Cut off that label, though. :thumbup:

Your man card is safe this time. :0)

If you're built like a chick then your okay!!! :D

But for reals, I see no problem. No one will know the difference but you.

I have a zip-up hooded sweatshirt that I love, After buying it I realized it was actually a womans model. The only problem is that the zipper is on the wrong damn side.

When I first got the sweatshirt they put my MAN CARD on probation for a few weeks, but It's good now abd I've been fully reinstated.

awesome guys, thanks for the comments

Why is this? Do they know something we don't?

they're on the opposite side so it's easier for someone else to take them off.

Don't they have extra boobage room up front?

Intact

lol jeff
cab- it seems a little bit baggy, nothin a couple pair of socks wont take care of tho! :D

*slaps forehead*

God they thought of everything didn't they! I love it!

And my man-card is the size of a brick.....just sayin....;)

Nice jacket. I would keep it just in case you decide to get another one you can always keep this jacket if a lady friend needs/wants a ride. You don't have to tell her that it's a woman's jacket.

I require a photograph of you wearing said jacket before I can give the correct advise. If it makes it look like you're developing boobs, well...... :p

Back in the day when sophisticated women got dressed, they had servants to assist with the task. Most fasteners were buttons, hooks, and lacing. To make things easier for the servants, the buttons and hooks on women's clothing was moved to the other side so that a right handed servant could easily close the fastener. Today, it's just an anachronism based on aesthetic appeal.

On topic: If the jacket fits you correctly, and you like the look and style, that's all that [U]truly[U] matters here. Girl gear is usually cut with a little more flare at the hips, and a little more room at the bust line. Really curvy girl gear is obvious in it's styling and cut, as it leaves no room for doubt!

I see you are in NWA. They are having Bikes, Babes & Bling in Fayetteville over the 4th of July. Just be careful if you go check that out. Might be an awkward moment if you run into a hot biker chick wearing the same jacket! :eek:

Personally if I were you I would keep it if it fits you good. The jacket doesn't look feminine at all.

If u ride thru east Texas... don't let anybody know its a woman's jacket... they'll lay a beatin on you!:eek:

Wow, East Texas sounds like a rough place for a stranger to ride through. The next time I ride out there I will have to get you two to back me up. (PitBull & addy126)

I like alex.s answer better. :D

I guess it's a good thing you did not accidently buy a pair of womens pants. :eek:

You are without a doubt the bravest man here for posting a full pic! Man card returned! :thumbup:

Jacket looks fine. Go ride and worry about more important things in life. :D

lol, i was hesitant...i tend to look dorky in some pics

Nothing wrong with that jacket. Wear it with pride.

You'll grow into it.

Looks good on you! I think I know where you got confused... There was no fine print stating the jacket does not include the hawt brunette modeling it. ;)

I dunno.... nobody busts the chops on women wearing men's bike jackets. I do for the length in the waist and the multitude of colors and styles available. There are minor adjustments but well worth the selections available. Women's jackets ride to high in the backside and arm lengths shorter than I like plus styling very limited.... Go with the one you have, you'll wear it out in no time then move on to another:thumbup:
