Tourmaster has a line called Cortech. I prefer them over Joe Rocket. Rocket used so much Velcro that I couldn't get the jacket off of the rack because it was stuck to the two jackets beside it.
Revit (sp?) makes some really nice stuff.

I don't really consider the HD one's "quality." I bought one of these:

After about 200 miles of it flapping in the wind, the stitching on the shoulders started coming out. The dealer replaced it. I do admit that I wore the replacement for years and had no problems. I guess I'm 50/50 on that style.

I have worn it less than 200 miles on the bike. I found that the back side of the arms is frayed looking from where it flapped around in the wind.

I have the first one. the wife has the second one. Haven't had a single problem out of either and had them quit a while with plenty of riding time with both.
