Speed and StrengthSpeed and Strength Women's Cat Out'a Hell Armored Hoody, Red/Black L

For starters I ordered this on the 1/19/23 and it came in 1/20/23. I was not expecting it to arrive so early but it arrived! Its very warm an comfortable, and I love the quality of it. Can't wait to test it out on a ride when its much warmer out.

Based on description and photo, I wasn't sure if I was going to receive the white/black (photo) or the red/black (description) version, but either was fine with me. I got the white/black. That excitement aside, the jacket is very nice. It has thumb loops but my arms are a bit long so using the loops is uncomfortable when reaching for the grips. But the thumb loop material is very soft and easy to push out of the way. I like the really long cuffs because I can extend them over my glove cuffs or I can roll them back. Armor pockets will accept d3o armor. The pockets are zippered and large enough to fit my Pixel 6A phone. I was concerned about the hood and strings, but I just tuck the strings inside the jacket before zipping up and they stay here, and the hood doesn't flap about either. The fabric itself seems pretty hefty, so combined with the good fit, the jacket doesn't flap much in the wind at all. One of the belt buckle snaps is off center on mine and a bit frayed, but the significantly lower price makes up for it. Overall, great deal on a lightweight protective jacket that looks nice.

In one of the pics, I have a larger wallet in the zip up pocket so it looks like it bulges a little bit it doesn't. The padding is easy to take out to wash. It's actually kind of thick so it's good for when you have a little cooler rides. I would still recommend layering though if you ride cold. You could also upgrade the padding down the road if you decide. No one knew it was a riding jacket 😅. It's not overly bulky. I'm not sure about the quality if I where to lay it down but like I said, you could upgrade the padding a little.

This hoodie has really great armor in it! It looks really nice, is light, and I can imagine it will be my go-to over my leather jacket. My two complaints are that it smells a little chemically fresh out of the bag, and it’s snug. I ordered a women’s large (I’m 5’0 150lbs) and expected to have some room. There’s no extra. It’s as snug as it can be and still be comfortable. I’m going to wash on delicate and hang dry and see what that does for the smell. Otherwise, I love it! Would very much recommend.

This sweatshirt looks exactly as pictured and is much more durable than anticipated. It is a little bit uncomfortable at first due to the padding but easy to get used to. The biggest issue is that the images and the products don’t match up. I originally ordered the white pictured sweatshirt, and received the red and black hoodie as described below the picture, my fault. So I reordered the red/black pictured hoodie with the description of black/white under it and still received the red/black hoodie. Will try one more time and hopefully will receive the correct jacket.

I get alot of compliments since the jacket looks good.... but I actually really don't like the jacket because it doesn't let enough air through when you need, and also doesn't block enough wind for riding. The pads jump around and kinda rub your elbows raw.

I like the jacket a lot but when I got it the zipper pull for one of the pickets. IMMEDIATELY broke. I can’t get the zipper pull back on because the piece just broke. Other than that I love it. Im keeping it. It’s just a little annoying.

Wish it had inside pockets for cell phone. The outside pockets are pretty shallow!
