I order stuff from Europe pretty regularly. Moto gear is way cheaper there for some reason. Shipping prices suck, but you can save a lot when buy several things at the same time.
I have bought a bunch of stuff from FC Moto and they're great. The only issue is that you really need to make sure you know your correct size. Returning stuff to Europe is expensive and takes a lot of time.

Yeah, is great if you KNOW what size you want and aren't worried about making a return
So I normally wear Large in most shirts/jackets (Patagonia marmot etc). I have multiple REV'IT jackets shirts and armour and I fit size XL.
So I ordered XL. It arrived and it's fkn TINY. (Yes I tried it w just a light t shirt on, and no back protector either, which would make it unzip able.
So now I have to pay $9 to return it, even though the chart clearly I am well under the XL specs.
I should have got this at revzilla… free ship and return and way faster shipping (this took 6 days to arrive, says ship same day, no…).
With revzilla I would have gotten like $18 cash back, free ship and returns and exchanges super fast, and it would be $2 more. That's if I keep size XXL I ordered from here.
Edit. This crazy euro sizing is whack… I'm 5, 11 and 185 (pretty thin)… and I usually am a little small in large stuff which is fine. I could fit M if I lost like 5 lbs. but here I am getting fkn size XXL…
It used to be XXL was for like massive 6'4" 280 pounds linebackers.
So after research I ended up with the Rev'It eclipse from revzilla for $10 cheaper then this (plus free ship and return and $7 revzilla cash back)
This Airwave 3 jacket is "the next level up"… but what does it give you other then heavy extras you don't need in a lightweight jacket. This jacket is really heavy it felt like I was wearing a sand 4
The eclipse also comes in all white (makes huge difference in Arizona sun/hot), and is more simple and has more airflow (the back airflow is on either side of back protector unlike this Airwave)
Also the eclipse seems like it's a normal Rev'It sizing so get one size up and it fits great. This Airwave sizing is whack… see revzilla reviews…
The only downside to the eclipse is no reflective… might have to look into some kind of sticker for the jacket for night rides

Get an airbag instead. Not cheap but protects better
