They seem to have a reasonable rep. The fact that they name their products after interesting roads in California is a plus in my book as well. (Have enjoyed Latigo & Piuma a number of times)

I have the Latigo. Picked it up a couple weeks ago now and love it. The fit is good for me with the small size. I've had some trouble trying to find some Tourmaster Apex leather pants to go with it though. The Latigo pants would probably be nice too, but the are perforated and I was hoping to find some non perfed pants for the cold season. Tourmaster and Cortech leather pants should be compatible with either jacket according to their website.

If you haven't decided yet...

About a week ago I bought a Cortech FSX series 2 textile jacket, and it's pretty amazing for the price. The zipper design is horrible, the non removable rain/wind proof inner liner comes out at the zipper and easily gets jammed in it, so that requires a careful hand, but other than that it keeps me toasty warm with the quilted liner in it. Not sure what features the Piuma has but probably similar to there other jackets, my 2 cents on Cortech.
