A great jacket let down a little.
26 July 2024 by Mark T
Hi, I bought this jacket just to have a leather one as I've never owned one, the jacket is a beast and you can tell it would protect you in a slide with no problems. I've had the jacket just over a year and worn it a dozen times tops as my bike I'd now a toy for nice days, I had a problem with a popper that came off on the wrist , Sportsbikeshop sorted this with a repair very quickly but unfortunately after receiving the jacket back from Merlin the other popper came off on the same wrist, Sportsbikeshop sorted a return for me as they don't have it in my size any more, I put it down to bad luck as the jacket in all other respects is well made, I can say Sportsbikeshop is awesome when it comes to problems and I'm happy to use them as a goto shop for my biking gear.
As I have a couple of classic bikes, I was looking for a suitable Leather jacket to complete the image. The Merlin Wishaw should be fine it fits well, is a bit stiff, though this is to be expected. I've not used it on the bike yet, but am happy with the item.
