I think my decision on whether or not I want another 3/4 length has been made based on price. Found this writeup on a forum when I googled motoboss swift.... "I picked up a motoboss Swift from Cycle Gear. Went to get the Kilmanjaro that was on sale. They didnt have my size and Nikki pointed me to this one. Out the door for $85. Couldnt refuse the deal. I got the 2xl. Probably could have gotten away getting a XL but the arms seemed a bit short and a little snug. With the 2xl its not quit as snug as I like, but overall it fits good. The liner seems just as thick as the Kilmanjaro. It has close to the same amount of pockets also. The pockets seem very well designed and placed. Seemed to be fairly easy to access all of them. All of the pockets are velcro type and it seems to be a strong velcro. Also has a couple pockets on the liner. Not sure if the Kila has velcro or zipper pockets? The collar comes up high but not intrusive. It has a couple well placed zipper vents.The zippers seem to be well made and look like it will last. The front zipper also looks like its good quaility. After you zip it also has snaps and then a piece that folds over that with Velcro. The adjustment straps seem well placed and I like being able to tighten it over my mid section. One thing I noticed I wish I could adjust a little better is the wrist wich ajust with velcro. It also has the reflective pipping along the back and pockets. I wore it home last night and as the temp started to drop it seemed to work well. Worked better than the RedHead 0 degree hunting jacket I usually wear.I cant completly compare it to the Kilmanjaro, cause I have never worn one, but for $85 bucks, I think its a good buy.
