Women's motorcycle jackets
A women's motorcycle jacket has to do two jobs at once: protect you and fit a body the size chart was probably not drawn for. We read the rider reviews so you can see how each jacket actually runs before you spend a dime.
What decides whether a jacket fits
The chest and shoulder set your base size, but the details that go wrong on a bike are sleeve length and back length. You try a jacket on with your arms down and ride with them forward, so a sleeve that looked fine rides up and pulls the elbow armor off the joint. Back length keeps the hem from riding up and baring your lower back when you lean.
Read the fit verdict on each jacket for how it runs and who it suits. If your arms always come up short, start with our guide to jackets for long arms; if gear usually swims on you, start with the petite guide.

Common questions
How should a women's motorcycle jacket fit?+
Snug through the chest and shoulders with the armor sitting on your shoulders and elbows in your riding position, arms forward. It should not bind across the bust or ride up at the back when you lean toward the bars.
Do women's motorcycle jackets run small?+
It varies by brand, which is why we show a fit verdict and the rider distribution on every jacket. Check that verdict rather than assuming, and use the size calculator with your measurements.
