    I'm in the market for a new leather jacket and was wondering if anyone here had experience with Teknic leather jackets. I haven't been able to try one on so I'm skeptical about purchasing one online and need another riders perspective. Everything I've read says that they run small. I followed that rule on the last leather jacket I bought recently and the thing came in actually on the large side of the size chart. Needless to say I'm selling that one (its in the classifieds section if anyones interested).

    SO does anyone on here wear a Teknic leather jacket? How does it fit, does it run true to size or is it actually smaller than what it says it is?

    Thanks for the help guys!

    I wear Teknic, currently using the new version of the Chicane perforated jacket. I think their sizing is pretty close to realistic. I have a size 48 or 50 chest, and I'm wearing a size 50 which fits about right (meaning comfortably snug). I also have a size 52 that allows me to wear something of bulk underneath if its too terribly cold.

    Cheers :drink:

    Thanks for the info! That's exactly what I've been looking for. And its the same jacket I'm looking at too, so now I feel pretty confident in which size I should get. Cool!
