Default icon team merc jacket

i wanna order the white one, but im not sure if the sleeves will be short, i doubt they will.........i wear a large shirt (kinda loose) and i figure a large jacket will be good. my sleeve length is around 34-35 i believe and i think the merc jacket is 33 for a large. can anyone help me that owns a icon or team merc jacket......i'm 6'0, chest is no problem, only thing im worried about is sleeve length. downside is if i were to get a xl for the sleeve lenght it's be so damn wide........any smaller guys with icon jackets large and sleeves longer. i plan on ordering the white jacket and icon super duty boots on metric bikes tonight or tomorrow.

yea, he told me it fit him good, just making sure cause my arms are a bit longer.......the sleeves were good on you? if not a lil long>? since i'll be kinda stretched and all. 200 bucks aint bad for that icon jacket and those boots.

i wouldnt order a icon untill i was able to try it on. im not knocking icon, i love their product, but their jackets fit weird. i usually get a large size jacket but with the icon daytona i had to get a xl, and the boots ran big, like i wear a 9 to a 9.5 depending on the shoe and ended up with a 8.5 field armor boot.

good point...my Astars jacket stretched a lil bit too....just remembed, which you prolly know, with jackets, you want them to stop basically at the wrist, unlike traditional jackets, you want to go past your wrist...so the 33" might not be bad if your reg sleave length is 34-35
