Racedoll, I have the Joe Rocket Jet Set jacket and it is plenty long enough for me and I'm 5'9.

I have had two other JR jackets and one refused to make room for boobs and was waaaay too short, the other made okay room for boobs, and was an okay length. This one has room for boobs and is long, but is a little too big for me. When I crashed the elbow pad moved too much and I ended up hurting my elbow pretty bad.

ETA: But it held up great in the crash. No holes, and only a tiny bit of rash that is only cosmetic.

I know this is an awful picture, but the only one I could find of the Jet Set jacket.

I have a JR that's too short....but that one looks decent.

If you like the gear that's a great price for a leather jacket. Good find Tigger!

I tried on a JR jacket today for the hell of it. I have no idea the model or anything, just that it was a size small and on the clearance rack in case I did like it. It fit and was long enough in the back to suit me, but the sides and front were WAY TOO short. I'm sure that is just how it is made, but I didn't care for it.

I don't have to worry about making room for boobs. Unforutunately (or fortunately) I don't have much there to stuff anywhere.

Here is the jacket that I want, but need to try on for sure.

I have looked at this thread several times, and it took my ex GF to point out that one sleeve was black.

No red, at least not for me. I don't want to look like a Christmas tree, which I would. Green bike (tree), red jacket (ornaments/lights), and yellow helmet (star).
