General impression is that a US medium equates to an NZ large (ish).

Um, why not check out one of your neighbours. He has good gear way cheaper and you can try it on before you buy PM Quasievil.

Jaison at MotoStyle in Mt Eden is going to be selling Joe Rocket gear. Give him a shout on 09 377 0651 or 021 206 2181.

He's a top bloke and should get you what you want for a good price.

I got a Joe Rocket textile jacket, its a medium and yes it errs on the large size. Seems to be generally well made, some duff stitching in one pocket lining but seems to have lasted well the last 4 years.

id say thats a good price with shipping inc,i have been buying a fair bit of stuff from the states etc and i will never go back to buying in nz,i know you should support your own but not when there robbing you blind,by going through a contact in aussie i can get a full yoshimoura system for about $600 cheaper than going through someone here.and then there is when you go to a bike shop and ask for some aftermarket parts and they stand there with a blank look on there face.joe rocket gear is awsome go for it,enjoy.

hey and if they don't quite fit you could go to your local bike shop (or even motostyle) and ask them if they could swap them for ones that do!
