Sizing Information

We put a size Medium on Huey and a size XL on Dewey for our Fit Check review and those are the sizes they normally wear. The jackets look great for the pictures, but in practice would probably be a bit snug. In checking Fieldsheer’s size chart for 2014 (see below), you’ll see that the chest sizes listed for each alpha size are a couple inches smaller than you would expect to see (at least in the smaller size ranges), and this confirms our observations.

My advice then would be to measure your chest and choose a size based upon the chart below, which for those in the Small to XL range will be one size larger alpha size than you normally wear. If you are between sizes, then choose the larger (don’t go 1-1/2 sizes bigger).

The belly/waist size of these jackets is pretty forgiving. A 3/4 style like this doesn’t taper a lot from chest to waist and there are side adjustment straps to do a good job to tailor the fit to your midsection. If you have a good size belly, just measure and make sure the chest size of the jacket you choose is at least 4” bigger than your max belly. For example, if your belly is 40”, then choose a minimum size XL which has a max chest of about 44”.

Jacket Size Max Chest Regular Sleeve Length Tall Sleeve Length
Small 38” 25.5” -
Medium 40” 26” 28”
Large 42” 26.5” 28.5”
XL 44” 27” 29”
XXL 48” 27.5” 29.5”
XXXL 51” 27.5” 29.5”
XXXXL 54” 28” 30”

Tall sizes are available in this style. If you normally have to buy tall sizes in men’s clothing then buy one of the “tall” jackets to get more length in the sleeves and body. The tall sizes have the same chest and belly as the regular jackets, but they are 2” longer in the sleeves and torso. Sleeve lengths in the chart are measured from the shoulder seam to the cuff.

Our Two Cents

This is a special, limited time sale. The Fieldsheer products in our closeout department right now were all part of a new line of gear introduced in 2014. We really like the products (as you can see from my original review below). But about a year ago, these products were discontinued and sold by the Fieldsheer distributor for mass liquidation through limited channels (which didn’t include us). But through unlikely circumstances, some of the inventory has become available again and we are offering it at VERY GOOD prices. When this inventory is sold through, there won’t be any more, so make a choice while you can! :: Paul, 1-30-17

About this jacket: The Fieldsheer Adventure Tour jacket will be the most feature-filled and versatile (referring to riding style and climate) of any in the new 2014 Fieldsheer line. A longer, “3/4” style jacket like this can be used by touring riders, commuters, adventure touring riders, or just everyday street riders. The longer body gives more coverage and protection than shorter sport styles and offers great storage opportunities…. aka tons of pockets! We’ve taken a whole series of photos for you to show all the features such as the storage, armor, etc. But the climate control aspect of this jacket deserves some discussion. Many “waterproof” jackets are built with a permanent “mid-liner” which is a waterproof barrier between the jacket’s outer shell and the nylon liner on the inside (and in some cases the waterproof liner IS the inside lining). That liner arrangement is very good at keeping water out, but just by design limits the comfort of the jacket in hot weather because air passing through vents doesn’t reach the rider’s skin… the venting occurs only between the outer shell and inner lining of the jacket. But this design departs from most others in this segment because it combines a water-resistant (not waterproof mind you) shell, with a removable Nanomax waterproof liner. That means that when you use the various vents (and there are six in front and one in back (see the pics), you’ll get a LOT more cooling air reaching through the inside mesh liner to your skin. The waterproof liner is made to work with the removable thermal liner so that you can “mix and match” to suit the conditions. You can use one, or the other, or both. If you’re interested, here’s a brief video that gives you some info about Nanomax. You’ll quickly figure out which one (or none) to include for your rides and you’ll be able to stay comfortable in a very wide range of temps. One other nicety… you get a great zip-off neck gaitor you can use in cold weather and/or wet weather. It will keep wind off your neck and also help channel water around the collar and keep it out of your jacket. Very nice! Overall, I like the styling of this jacket and the colors. We used the most sedate of the colors for our photo shoot, but there are three other colors you can choose from that are a bit more jazzy. I also have to mention the night reflectivity. Wow! (Check our night shots in the photo gallery). The armor supplied for the shoulders and elbows is about like all other quality of armor you’ll find, and the back armor they supply is well above others in terms of overall sturdiness (just my humble opinion… not based on testing). It is nice to know you don’t have to spend more to get a decent back pad. Overall, I’m liking this style and I bet you will too. :: Paul, 11-30-13


Update: Our friends at WebBikeWorld did a great review on this jacket. The content focused on their experience with a men’s sample, but the review info is applicable to the women’s version as well. They had VERY nice things to say about this style! :: Paul, 10-27-14

Update: Rick and company were apparently so impressed with this jacket that they named it Motorcycle Clothing of the Year. Wow! :: Paul, 1-05-15

A great jacket at a great price; I continue to buy from motorcyclegear. My helmet, my wife's helmet, and a few jackets for each of us... including this Fieldsheer Adventure Tour. I am 6'2 200 lb, and the Large Tall fits great.
