Well based on what I have read here, I just placed an order for the speedster jacket. 69 bucks, I'll give it a try.

I wear a pair of their Xelement boots, and they've been great. Also got jackets for myself and my wife..chaps too. All of it has been of comparable quality to others I've seen for a LOT more money.

I have a couple of jackets and some chaps from them. No complaints whatsoever. When you receive a purchase from them, they include a coupon for ten percent off on all future purchases.

I'll endorse the "leather up" goods as well. I bought their chaps and a vest. Just be careful on the sizing. They seem to be smaller than what is actually stated. Decent quality stuff as far as materialand workmanship is concerned.

After my accident last year I had to buy new boots and a jacket. I got the xElement harness boots in July and the MC jacket in September. I had to return the boots for a smaller pair (usually a 9 but needed an 8) and the jacket for a larger one (usually a 44 but needed a 50). They are really good with exchanges. If you return it they will send a replacement one time without an additional charge. At first I thought it was a great deal, but I already need to replace both. The sole on the boots has completely worn down. I am constantly sliding on the asphalt now. Forget trying to walk my bike backwards into a spot. The jacket has whatever material on the inside coming through the lining. Also the seams in the lining by the sleeves are ripped. Think I'll stick with Schott from now on. It might cost $300 compared to $60 for the jacket, but at least I can get 10 years or so out of it.

I bought chaps from them.
They were too small and needed to be exchanged.
No problem!

I just bought this jacket for my 12 y.o.son to ride in.

Great jacket at a really great price!

I bought chaps from them that are high quality and great price. I did have to exchange them for a smaller size with no problem. There were several posts here about sizing problems but there doesn't seem to be a pattern (too small, too large) but like I said, no return issues.
