Roadgear X Jacket $200
To us, the Roadgear X Jacket has "muscle cruiser" written all over it (in invisible ink, of course). Made of 1.2mm drum-dyed cowhide, it's a sturdily built jacket. The heavy-duty plastic zipper is backed by a wind flap, the back has a reflective panel, and a foam-filled drop-back provides kidney protection and keeps chilly air out. The X dispenses with a thermal liner and concentrates on the body protection riders really need. The shoulders and elbows have removable CE-approved armor, and there's a removable foam back pad, double leather over the shoulders and soft foam sewn into the shoulders and elbow. The cuffs close snugly with zippers and snaps. Cooling is provided via zippered vents on the upper arms and two zippered vents down the back. The X does have two issues: The first is that the jacket front "stands up" a little when on a bike, a minor annoyance. The second is that the upper sleeves are too long and the excess material bunches up.
