Milano Sport Gamma Motorcycle Jacket

This is a jacket produced by rather not famous brand called "Milano Sports". I bought it because I wanted to buy a jacket with minimal cost and decent protection. I was just starting to ride. I must say this jacket is a tough competition to any of those famous brands out there. While styling is somewhat a subjective matter form my perspective this jacket does total justice to style. I have the white/black one. I would classify styling as highly aggressive. It has a V taper in design , and it therefore looks more aggressive than some of the other jackets. The 3d minor armor design also accentuates the design positively. The only tacky part I thought was a huge logo of the brand on one side. But thats a minor thing. Now, protection, it comes with an upgrade-able back protector slot, and CE plastic foam protectors on shoulders and elbow forearm region. It has a zip in liner for winter, Its best till early part of spring. Anything above 75F might be too hot, unless its windy. Fit is almost perfect, I am 5.7 about ~145 pounds. I have basic build good pectoral girdle. It fits me perfectly with one minor annoyance. The armors are hidden behind a velvet cover, so removing adding them is a bit annoying. The shoulder armor slips forward if not fitted properly when you wear the jacket, but that may just be because of the strange sizing of US (S/M instead of a number which is more closer fit). I am pretty sure if medium is 50, then 48 would be "the " fit for me. The only other problem I can think of (and I am really thinking hard about anything that annoys me here) is that the sleevs are large in diameter/width. They come with a velcro adjuster but its just bulky, even doing that. Maybe they have left the additional room for the armor and I generally remove my forearm protector in in-city riding. Overall I would easily ask anyone to prefer this jacket, in worst case you can return it back, and thats minor annoyance, but this minor brand has produced a good jacket for affordable price!

All I can say is wow. This jacket is pretty much everything I was looking for in a motorcycle jacket. -I'm only 5'5 and 130 pounds, and the small jacket size fits me perfect. -The jacket is short in the torso area but still fits me perfect. Very European-cut -There are velcro straps on the bicep and forearm area so you can make sure the arms of the jacket remain snug. The jacket looks much better without the bagginess as well. -There are zippered vents on the front of the jacket just below the armpit (nice feature) -Overall great quality. Zippers don't snag, the stitching is thick and tight, material is strong, and seems like it wouldhold up well overall. -Velcro on the lower sides to tighten the jacket around the waist -Zippered pocket on the inside left chest. Another nice feature. -Came with an inside liner which you can easily remove by zipper and undoing two buttons on each wrist. The liner is light weight but comfortable and warm (I think...it is currently June though) -Last but definitely not least, excellent CE protection around the elbows and shoulders. There is also some design-padding around the jacket which provides some protection and makes the jacket look great The bad: -The jacket didn't come with any back protector? I had to use one from my other motorcycle jacket. No big deal, just thought it would come ready-to-wear and ride. -There doesn't seem to be any/much lower back protection (L1 through L5). Tried to remove the lower back protrctor from my other motorcycle jacket, but that is sewn in. This jacket still provides adequate protection, just not as low down the back as my other jackets. -The exterior jacket pocket openings are a bit small. Proably a good thing though in the event you accidentlly forget to zip it up. It is tough to shove a hand in there, especially when wearing gloves. And try grabbing something in that small space! It's no biggie though.

The jacket does good for the money and convenience of Amazon but it isn't perfect. The styling is good but the the branding on the back of the neck and both sleeves makes me not want to wear it at times. The padding on the elbows and shoulders is CE rated but there is NOT a back protector. Well, there is a piece of foam that will not protect much if you do happen to fall. You could go ahead an buy one online to insert but that'll cost you around 40-70 depending on the style that fits the jacket. But that will probably put this jacket near the $200 range and in that case you can get something a bit more comfortable, stylish, and more protected from a more reputable company. I paid about $130 for this Jacket in Feb of 2020 price may have gotten lower or higher at a later time. Sizing is a bit small. I usually wear a large on everything but I got an XL on this jacket and it is still a bit too tight for me. I am 5'5 and 185 (fat not muscle) in between a 34 -36 size in pants. Length wise, it just reaches my waistline. I also have a Cortech Piuma jacket that cost me around $197 and there is definitely a difference in quality. The Milano certainly feels nice and safe but if isnt made out of the high end material. The lining feels a bit thin and delicate. The inside zippers feel like they're about to get stuck and the Velcro feels like they're going to yank the lining off. It is a good jacket though. You get removable paddings and a removable termal liner that does keep you warm. I ride in Los Angeles and the coldest I have gotten was about 60 F. When we have hit 90ish degree weather and I have forgotten to take out the termal liner my arms sweat and the liner sticks to my arms. That is also something to consider. The termal liner goes all the way into the sleep, the Cortech I have has more of a termal vest where the termal lining doesn't have sleeves. Overall a good looking jacket with good not great protection. You may want to invest in a back protector.

That's right. I was hit at low speeds by a drunk driver in an intersection and he knocked me over. My left elbow slammed into the ground and left some considerable bruising. There are thick pads reinforcing and protecting your forearms, elbows, and shoulders, and I can honestly say the elbow pad saved my elbow from shattering on the pavement. The shoulder pad did some considerable work too. Yes, the jacket did rip, but it's an extremely small tear considering how much actually slid on the pavement. It did what I bought it to do, and that was to protect me. Moving past the safety rant, the jacket looks sweet! It has padding all over, has a cool striped designs, velcro straps to tighten down the waste and sleeves so air can't get in, and an extremely warm removable liner. I'm riding in +30 degree weather, and with a scarf protecting my neck, I experience no discomfort. I'm 6'0" at about 170 pounds, and the MED size fits me perfect, in fact, I can even wear a hoodie underneath when it gets REALLY cold! Great jacket for a great price. Moreover, very SAFE jacket. Five stars! ***UPDATE*** I recently sold my last bike and the jacket with it to a friend, who absolutely loves it. I purchased a new motorcycle and instantly went online to purchase another one of these, this time in the blue color to match my new bike. It looks and fits stellar, and I get a lot of compliments from people about the cool look of the jacket. So far this is my second one and I am extremely pleased with it, not to mention I feel vey well protected if I ride. Milano continues to receive 5 stars from me! ***UPDATE #2*** I added pictures! Of my first jacket (white) and my second jacket (blue) from Milano. I'm not near as thin as the pictures make me look for the blue jacket, so keep in mind it's much wider than how it appears! I also like to match, and both the jackets have done their matching bikes justice.

I wanted this because of the looks and the styling, and was pleasantly surprised at the quality and feel of the product once I received it. Having read Hugo's review with his advice to order one size larger than normal was a blessing. I am 6 feet tall (1.82M) and weigh 185 pounds (84kg) and have a normal athletic physique. Normally I order most jackets in Large but this time I selected the XL and I am glad that I did. Since it comes with an interior liner it fits perfectly. It comes with removable armor in the shoulders and elbows and there is additional armor protecting the forearms. The material as light weight but strong and is 100% waterproof. Additionally it is windproof. I bought this to complement my summer jacket and this will be my foul weather option. In fact if I remove the liner I might just wear it for all four seasons. Since the waistband is adjustable I'm able to make it snug around the belt line but it's just a Tad snug around the chest (I am 44"). If you are 200 pounds or more I would suggest at least the XXL. The larger size also gives me the option of removing the inner liner and wearing a hoody or sweater underneath. If you are from North America and don't want that ultra tight European look opt for one size larger. Additionally I have unusually long monkey arms and the XL was the perfect fit for sleeve length. Now I can wear motocross gloves and my wrists are not exposed. The shoulders and elbows are extremely flexible, the jacket is very light, and the weatherproof a is phenomenal. Highly recommended. Please comment on your size and fit since motorcycle jackets vary significantly between the manufacturers. A year later, still looks brand new. The padding makes you look like a body builder; you will turn a lot of female heads. The jacket is absolutely wind-proof and the fit is 100% adjustable. There are reflectors built in that are not obvious in daylight. You can size the waist, neck and arms to your liking. This jacket is Badazzz. There are many ventilation zippers for summer riding, but when closed, is totally wind-proof.

To all the motorcycle enthusiast out there, and you know who you are: I really wanted to like the Milano Sport Gamma jacket, but after two failed attempts, I’m done with this brand. My experience has been a cycle of poor fit and even poorer hardware. Round 1: I first ordered an XL. Not only was it significantly too small, but the main zipper was completely defective right out of the box. I sent it back, got a refund, and decided to give them another shot by sizing up. Round 2: I ordered the 2XL, expecting a much better fit. Unbelievably, it was still too small. To make matters worse, the zipper on this second jacket broke almost immediately as well. It seems these jackets use European sizing, which runs much smaller than standard US sizes. Even if you size up twice, you might still find the "athletic cut" too restrictive. Combining the unpredictable sizing with consistently cheap, failing zippers makes this a hard pass for me. I wouldn't trust this gear to hold up in a slide if it can't even handle being zipped up in my living room. “Based on the size chart, an XL should have fit comfortably, and the 2xl is very tight no way that's the correct size chart!” If you're looking for a reliable motorcycle jacket, I'd suggest looking elsewhere. I have an old Joe Rocket that is 10 years old, fits like a glove, higher quality jacket and zippers function properly even after many years. Two jackets, two broken zippers, and zero luck with the fit. Not a happy customer.

Just got it and tested it for an hour in 40°. I normally wear a large and ordered XL and glad I did. The xl fits me perfect. I’m 5’8” 175lbs. Held out the wind and kept me warm with a long sleeve shirt underneath. The only thing I would change or add is a flap over the zipper and make it button down. A bit of cold air got through the zipper but not enough for me to not like it. Over all I’d recommend this jacket... Revising revising review... took out the inside liner today and discovered about a 12” area that was wide open looks like the sewing machine missed the entire side of the fabric... so quality inspections are apparently not done. Temped to send it back, but I’ll probably find a tailor to try to read stitch it

I've gone through two of these jackets in four years. It's always the zipper that breaks down. I liked the jacket, but I don't feel like buying a 3rd one after two zipper fails.
