ob, do all the joe rocket jackets have that big-ass patch on the forearm?

CBJ, None of mine do.  I've got one that is full leather and it has only a small one on the shoulder, same with the mesh chest and back one (leather arms and shoulder) with body armour.  I know these have names, but I can't remember them.

I have a Joe Rocket Phoenix mesh jacket and love it.  It is cool in the hot weather and works good with the rain liner during cool weather.  I wore it in this morning at 40*.  Long sleeve T, pull over sweat shirt, and the Joe Rocket with the liner.  I was very comfortable.  For me it is a great all weather piece.  It does have a 1.5" x 3.5" Joe Rocket  patch on each shoulder, but they are reflective.  The best 139.95 piece of riding gear I own.

why is it that these manufacturers make you pay good money for their stuff and want you to advertise for em too.it sucks.

I guess it's because some people are fine with being used as a billboard.

For me it's exactley why I've never owned Nike, Old Navy or H.D. brands!

i have a friend with a huge open ended wrench tattooed up his forearm - the head is at his elbow and then the logo "CRAFTSMAN" is written in chrome down his arm - it's his only ink and it's actually pretty cool... he's a carpenter/bike(honda) guy...

i've been thinking of shaving my scalp and getting the wings tattooed to the sides of my head...
