Fieldsheer Titanium Air Jacket

The jacket that I just purchased is the Fieldsheer Titanium Air Jacket. It is a mesh jacket with armor in the elbows, shoulders, and back. There are adjusters in all the right places: elbows, wrist, waist, and neck.

I bought the jacket online for $99.99. Shipping ran at $10.50 for 3-5 day delivery. You could opt for a faster time, but that costs more and I am a cheapo. By the way, I could not get the Joe Rocket version of this jacket at $100. The cheapest I found the Joe Rocket (Is it called the Phoenix? I'm not sure.) to be was $119. The Joe Rocket's armor also seemed to be not quite up to the same level set by Fieldsheer. That, of course, is just my opinion. With the Fieldsheer's armor, there just seemed to be more of it.

Buying this jacket online saved me a significant amount of money as my local shop carries the same thing for $129.99. The would only come down 5% which would have the total at around $125. The total cost, by the way, to the doorstep, was only pennies over $110.

I received the jacket in the expected amount of days. The website was something like www.Fieldsheer.com. I ordered it Monday night at midnight and it came in the mail by the following Monday. I thought it would have come sooner, but the guidelines suggest 3-5 days for arrival from the day of SHIPPING and not 3-5 days from the day of order.

The color is Black/Silver. It goes well with my black B12.
The jacket ventilates well...much better than my solid leather. You can even feel the air moving through the jacket if you walk in a circle around the room. It does not bunch up when I ride and the armor, sleeves, and overall fit, when properly secured with its hook-and-loop fasteners (velcro), stays put and out of the way.

Shameless plug:
"When I'm blasting down to the corner store to get my gallon of whole milk, I feel confident in my ability to take any corner as fast as I want. Why, coupled with my youth and new FIELDSHEER TITANIUM AIR JACKET, I feel downright invinceable!"

If Valentino Rossi rode for Fieldsheer: (complete with phonetic spellings of words)
"Eees (Is) pose-eeble (possible) for weeeenn (win). My bike stay up frrrrrront (front with a rolled "r" sound) and hold for weeeeenn (win)."

If I won a race against Valention Rossi:
"OH MY...[insert crying and tears of joy]...GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!!...[insert crying]...[insert crying]...I can't believe this...[insert crying]..." (you get the picture)

Re: Fieldsheer Titanium Air Jacket

I picked up one of these Jackets at Brockton Cycle Center in Massachusetts. 99 bucks. This is the best motorcycle accessory purchase I had made in years. This jacket is just what you need for hot weather riding. The arms on this jacket are nice and long so the sleeves never ride up off your wrists
This jacket keeps you cool in 2 ways, it keeps the sun off you
and when you are moving the air flows throught the jacket and makes you feel cool.

If you end sitting in traffic you will end up getting
hot - the padding and back plate will make you sweat.
