I agree with the above but I also would like to add the need to bring an experienced rider with you when you purchase a new jacket, chances are he know a lot more than a novice could about jacket types

I'll have to add one thing, try to avoid buying leathers online or if you do find a fellow rider who has the exact model and try it out, it's never a good idea to buy something you haven't tested
