Montana

Jack - 8/7/2009

I have been using this jacket for over 3 years now and it is fantastic and looks even better with age. It will no doubt become an heirloom as it has alot of character again especially after it ages in the sun. I have alot of miles on this jack and love it more evey day.

Quality

Justin - 7/1/2009

I received the jacket near a week ago. I had read the reviews here as well as WebBikeWorld. It was down to the Roadcrafter or the Montana.

I could not be happier with my choice. I was able to test fit the Roadcrafter. I didn't have the same opportunity with the Montana but I still went with it.

To be redundant of some other reviews: Leather is soft, feels like the nice soft leather on a good couch. Fit is perfect. I ordered the same size as I wear in a business suit and it's great. It's tailored well enough that even with the forward lean to the bars, the arms reach and the fit doesn't pinch.

AND - It looks cool.

Buy it if you're considering a Motojacket.

I love this jacket..

Thank you for making the Montana Jacket. Hands down, it is the finest motorcycle jacket I have ever had the pleasure of owning! I feel like a moviestar everytime I put it on, just amazing quality. After a year of riding it has plenty of character from road grit and bugs. I love this jacket so much that I am worried about cleaning it. Is there a certain cleaner that I should use on it. On your website you recommend British Motorcycle Gear Care, but I cannot find this product on your site or elsewhere on the web. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Great Jacket

Quality Leather, very soft and feels like it is already broken in.

More of a black/brown...but it looks great.

Just got the jacket today!

Holy s**t. What a fantastic jacket!! A true motorcyclist jacket, not a "biker" jacket. The pictures do not do this jacket justice. It is more of a flat black or a brown/black, but it looks so much better than the shiny black jackets that are everywhere (just my opinion as the flat black looks more retro and broken in). The jacket fits perfectly (if you are in between sizes, order the next size up as it is snug - as it is supposed to be and I think it fits perfect). Pockets on the inside and out, armor, venting, sinching at the waist, zip out liner....absolutely fantastic!!!! This jacket is the perfect complement to my Royal Enfield. And the workmanship!.....this is not a cheap online leather jacket, trust me. No need to look anywhere else. You will not be sorry. Thanks BMG!

hooked for life

BMG has the best quality and designed bike wear I have found backed by first class customer service. This is the only leather jacket I will wear.

Nice Jacket

J. Graser - 5/7/2009

The Pros: I absolutely love the fit of this jacket. The arms are long enough that they still reach my hands even when holding on to my Thruxton's clip-ons. I've heard people say to order one size up... I disagree. I'm a 46 suit jacket and ordered a size 46. It fits perfectly. Nice and snug in the chest area without being too resrictive.

The Cons: The jacket doesn't look like the one in the pictures. It is definitely more dark brown. Kind of a greasy, dirty black and the leather finish is different - not at all "shiny" like the jacket in the picture. I would have liked to have had the leather grain(?) matched up a little better. One arm has a very smooth finish while the other has a pebble wrinkle finish. Not major problems, but I thought they were worth mentioning.

Just What I've Been Looking For

Dale Leppo - 4/3/2009

I have been looking for a jacket that would look "right" on my Triumph Bonneville, but still have modern features like armour and (at least some) venting. I also wanted a jacket that looked like a Motorcyclist's jacket.(NOT a Biker's jacket.) The Montana met all of those expectations. Thanks!

Best. Jacket. Available.

Simply the finest piece of leather I've ever put on. My other jackets are now on ebay!

Oh man !

Great jacket.Way better than picture looks.My only complaint is it is a little snug in waste area,guess I will have to lay off the cheese burgers! No really,great coat at any price.

Great Leather!

drew - 12/7/2008

I used this jacket for about 2 months before I had to put the bike away for the winter. It's a great jacket, plenty warm even in 30F, plus wicked comfortable. No break in required, and quality construction and armor. Best thing for me is no stupid, giant size name brand tags, just a little brit flag. Highly recommend this!

Great Jacket

Gary OBryan - 10/31/2008

This is a great leather jacket not only with quality but with looks too! Only have a couple of rides with it and looking forward to wearing in the jacket!

Just a side note: the jacket is not black as in the picture. Well, at least mine isn't. More of a black-brown. Still looks great!
