Extremely DISAPPOINTED

OK- for reference I am 5'8" 165 lbs with a proportional figure. I thoroughly reviewed the size chart and watched the video to make my decision to buy this jacket. I did not even bother zipping it up once it was "on" because I couldn't wait to take it off. This jacket fit so terribly and the armor is placed so poorly that I am was wondering who the heck designed this thing. Do NOT waste your money. This jacket also boasts reliefs for the breast area which is a joke. If you are bigger than an B cup don't even bother. This jacket is not designed with the female figure in mind as if finding proper

Just purchased

I haven't ridden this anywhere but just out of the box it is a great fit, like a glove. It feels just tight enough to where leather should feel right out of the box and I know it will stretch out over time. Something I read with the original vika jacket was that they were having trouble getting their hands in and out of the sleeves. I don't have trouble with it because there are zippers on the ends that allow me to get in and out with ease. Its super sleek looking, I feel confident in it and I'm just glad I bought it. I haven't seen a single women's jacket our there make a girl look sexy but t

It's beautiful!

It's beautiful, soft and supple. I love the midnight blue color. I would suggest going up at least one size when ordering as it does run small. I'm petite, usually an xs to xs. Size 38 too small. I went up to Size 40, but I could have been more comfortable in a size 42. My vanity got the best of me because I wanted a sleek, tight-fitting jacket so I kept the 40. I love it!

Fantastic!

Love the fit. Like a warm hug. A bit tight right now but I?m confident it will fit perfectly soon. Just needs to break in. I bout a 42 in the jacket and pants. I?m 5?6? 125 pounds - the pants are excellent as well!

Love it

I love this jacket, it's probably not for all body types, but it is for mine. I'm 5'10", 136lbs, so I was looking for gear to fit on size S-M but tall. I have it in size 44 and it is long enough in the arms.

Pleasantly surprised

I didn't expect this to fit me, as I have beef with Astars making their womens gear practically child sized, but I was pleasantly surprised. It is a bit tight in the shoulders but I know the leather will break in so I'm not mad at it. The metallic blue also almost matches my Ninja, which is why I wanted it. Thanks to my DM for encouraging me to make what I call a "bad financial decision" lol
