Got my new AlpineStars Barcelona jacket yesterday from Motorcycle Superstore. I can't believe I only paid $141 for this $300-$400 jacket at closeout. Increadible deal on a really nice jacket. It has all the CE-approved armor (the back is just a foam pad, but it will hold a decent aftermarket pad too) and a removable Thinsulate liner. Quality A*s stitching throughout and the leather is thick enough to protect, but soft enough to be comfortable right out of the box. I have a feeling this is going to be my "go to" jacket at least until things warm up around here and I switch to my TourMaster Intake mesh.
