Hello, sorry to intrude into your sacred ground. I was hoping that you all would have some good suggestions. I want to suprise my wife with a new jacket for when we ride. I was hoping to get some feedback on what you consider a good looking, comfortable jacket. I was thinking something a little plain/understated, and she's not a pastel loving girly-girl ( please no offense intended!) $ is not an issue when it comes to safety! Thank You.

My wife has an Alpinestar. She loves it. She says that it is actually made for a woman's "curves"

Dianese is the best in my opinion. I have their jacket and love it. :bowdown:

Joe rocket or Icon my top two. The womens leather held up like a champ when I was sliding down the road - :thumbup: and the Icon jackets feel great, I didnt realize I should turn my head and try to drive before I bought one, they are all different but the whole try to look behind you and see if your helmet gets stuck on the coat... good idea.

I like Joe Rocket too, it all depends on what she might feel comfortable with I have pretty wide shoulders and I know that it was hard to get the right size and all, the Icon jacket fit my topside but I did not like how big it left it around my waist let too much air in. :thumbup:

last year my ex got the Icon Neo-Daytona. Great jacket with a really nice liner that is warm (which is good here in MN).

probably better to just take her to get one....make sure it fits right. A tight jacket is uncomfortable, a loose jacket is pointless.
