COMMANDO UH BLACK Men's Light-Weight Motorcycle Jacket

I used to wear a Cortech jacket, and now I have moved over to Pando Moto.

I was looking for something light, breathable, and something I can layer up in the cooler/colder seasons. For reference, I am a male at 5' 8.5" and have a rather large gut (in other words, I'm fat).

When I was a bit slimmer, I used to wear shirts and hoodies in a large size.... but as I got bigger, I am now between sizes, usually preferring an XL.

With motorcycle gear, I can still fit into a large, but it's pretty snug. Looking at the PANDO COMMANDO jacket, it definitely looked like a slim fit, so I opted for an XL to play it safe.

The XL size fits perfectly; the arms/sleeves do feel a smidge long, but they settle after moving around on the bike. I was wearing a Dri-Fit shirt underneath this jacket and a heavy hoodie over the jacket on a 92-degree (Fahrenheit) sunny day. I will say that this jacket is definitely breathable, flexible and comfortable, after you get used to how snug the jacket hugs you (not unconfortable, I'm not used to this kind of material).

Wearing the jacket by itself with a shirt on underneath, you can still feel the rock and backpack straps hit your body every time you are out on a ride. With another layer above it, maybe a light jacket or light hoodie, you shouldn't have these issues.

The jacket fits well and is not uncomfortable at all. I was able to take a 1.5-hour nap at home, wearing this under blankets (with all CE Protectors), and did not even sweat one bit. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes to layer up and dislikes wearing heavy leather jackets.

I do wish this came with the back protector, but if you are wearing a backpack most of the time, I think you should be fine.

As for any flaws: It can be a little more snug than preferred, but I got used to it within the first couple of hours.

The quality is great! It fits great too. My rating would be higher but it’s a good bit hotter than I expected it to be. If I could change anything it would be to lower the collar about 1/2-3/4 of an inch so it didn’t dig slightly into my throat and I would order one without the dumb Molly straps on it if they made an option to buy one without them. Probably the thing I struggled with the most on if I would buy it or not. Looks stupid and serves no real world useful purpose most riders would use. Not gonna strap a bag to my body on my rib cage. Plus without them it might reduce how hot this thing shouldn’t be getting. I’ve worn it twice now for 3 plus hour rides and I’m looking at other options to consider returning this and getting something else. Shame too, the quality is really good and the fit I really like.

Just what I was looking for! Excellent fit and can layer just about anything over it.

One of the best Jackets ever. Multifunctional, nice fit and great Safety & Security

Super #zeug haben die Jungs gebaut.
