Anybody got this reasonably priced Sturgis jacket:

If so what do you think of it?

Haven't got either (but it'd be the first if I was considering it), however I've bought two pairs of kevlar jeans and a pair of textile trousers of this brand and was well impressed by the robustness of construction and value for money, so it defiantly worth a look.

Cheers Mark.

Yes was instead tempted by the Kevlar Australian Biker Gear jeans (also very reasonably priced). They arrived quickly.
Dark Blue Denim (like jeans were when i was a kid) having none of the 'Fashion' stonewashing, scrunching , abrading). Kevlar areas were not as shown advertised but covers Knees, outer seams and your rear, stitching is subtantial, and Knee pads and Hip pads and pockets inside. Comfortable when riding. Well impressed.
