Shipping was horrible. 4 days in a row it went out for delivery and 4 days in a row it was marked as exception and returned. on the fifth day when I finally got it, the box was seriously damaged, as was the packaging it was shipped in. so disappointed for $300 jacket that was supposed to be a gift. I now have to purchase a box to put it in. Please use a different company. Until then, I won't be purchasing from you again. Also, you really should have an option for photos included in your reviews. Because I've got photos of the damaged packaging and box.

Magnet snaps not what I was looking for but ok for day to day and some travel use. Overall feel and finish also not as sturdy as envisioned. Good size and so far utilitarian in uses.

The Phoenix duffle looks better than expected with those trims. It’s handy for weekends, but I probably wouldn’t use it as my daily gym bag since it feels large when full.

The “Black Biker Moto Jacket (M)”. I don’t like taking pictures but from my search to no success there’s not many useful James Leather reviews nor specific details about this certain jacket. I hope this helps the small percentage that are interested in one. I ordered it in medium as the measurements seemed the most proper though I feel I could fit a large if I wanted to fit thicker hoodies or sweaters under it. I usually like a longer jacket when it comes to back length but I noticed this style jacket is always worn shorter. It is slim fit as it says. I’m 6’0 exact and around 180 slim/boney but I have slightly bigger bicep/tricep and shoulders for a slimmer guy. A bit of a pudge belly. Somewhat of a swimmers build. I do plan to lose 10 pounds which I think will make it fit even better. My body measurements are…Shoulder-34. Chest-38. Back length-22 5/8. Shoulder circumference(corner edge) to wrist(sleeve)-26. Biceps-15. All measured in inches. It feels sturdy and just the right weight. The quality feels and looks great. My brother and I planned a Busch Gardens trip for Christmas Town and it showed up at my door 20 minutes before we headed out. Tested it out with a thermal, and a lite UA hoodie..approved. 37 degrees(for me it wasn’t so cold). It did draw a lot of attention and compliments if you’re into that. Im a shy guy so a warning to other shy guys you will get approached. A little tight in the underarms when you lift your arms about elbow level with obliques(nipple line). Overall a medium for me feels a tad bit snug but it works and I believe will loosen up a bit with wear. I should add that it is the most comfortable in the chest width. Each zipper pocket has just the right depth and there’s also a decently deep inside pocket on the left. I read in other places about a chemical smell on unboxing but to be fair these jackets are wrapped in a large thick plastic bag when it’s shipped so whatever smell it had when it was made is locked in the bag with the jacket but just smells like “fresh off the crafting table” leather to me. After a day or two the scent lightens and has that pleasant leather smell. There are coupon codes that will get to your email so keep an eye out if you sign up. Between 10 and 20%. Mine came from Pakistan to eastern U.S. ordered it on the 15th and was at my door on the 28th through DHL Express. I give it a solid 8/10. I would give it a 9 if customer service was a bit more responsive and helpful. They never answer emails so I’m certain nobody wants to deal with their refunds or returns as I’ve read in masses it’s a nightmare that’s why I’m putting this here so you may not have to if you pick right the first time. I would give it a 10 if it didn’t have a hole like gap under the collar buckle area. Besides that I recommend if you know what you want.
