Lovely jacket, let down by the odd detail or two

This is a smart and comfortable jacket with plenty of features that make it very versatile. I bought it as a summer jacket for shorter trips rather than as a four-season garment. For that (and I do a lot of low single-digit riding), you would need to tog up with quite a bit of base and mid-layering as this has no thermal lining. It is windproof, though. However, there's a couple of points that you need to note. As a previous reviewer noted, "there's a lot going on around the cuffs with the duel fit zip system and the winter cuff inserts". In fact, there's so much going on that I for one cannot use the adjusting tab because the tab has to go across the zip on the inside of the arm to connect to the poppers. Even with the winter cuff inserts removed, the inside of the cuff gets very compressed and untidy if you try to tighten it up. This is because the zip, which is there for the commendable purpose of accommodating an armoured undershirt, is quite substantial. Note that this jacket has no armour, it is meant to be worn with a separate shirt. Knox make their own, obviously, but I imagine that the Forcefield sport shirts would also do the job. As another reviewer has noted, the sizing is not entirely what you might expect. I have tried various Knox jackets on and have noted that my usual medium size is fine around the chest and shoulders but the sleeves are too short. I thus went for the larger version and the sleeves are perfect and the rest of the jacket is fine too, albeit a tad looser than what I normally go for. With an armoured undershirt it will be fine. Note also that the zips are stiffer than on other manufacturers' garments with which I am familiar, but they are watertight (outside chest pockets) and robust. All in all, very pleased.

Another great Knox product

I am already a big fan of Knox products with all of my riding gear coming from them. That was the attraction of the Roscoe jacket - I could combine it with my existing armoured shirt as part of the Knox layering system. I love the adjustable size of the jacket with the zip up the side. The product looks good and is great quality, plus at £150, it was competitively priced given how good it is. Very pleased with my purchase. Just need to grow some stubble now to carry off the look!

Quality leather and made in Great Britain

Very well made and you can tell a lot of thought has gone into making this jacket fits perfectly and looks great will look even better over time. I got this in the sales half price bargain also brought a action armoured shirt and would highly recommend both.
