So I'm going to start this review by being honest: I did not start my search for a jacket by looking for this one. I was searching for other leather jackets in more of a racing/athletic style, but couldn't find much (especially not in my price range). I actually accidentally found it, and was amazed from the first sight. I happen to be a die-hard Mass Effect fan, and I didn't know that any of these were still available. As I'm sure you could imagine, I was a bit eager to buy it. I read about three overwhelmingly positive reviews before that and my fan instincts kicked in. I bought it straightaway.Lo and behold, it arrived in three days! I was so ecstatic that I ran from the lobby all the way up to my dorm to try this bad boy on. It fit perfectly, just what I was looking for. The interior lining is a synthetic fabric, but it's extremely comfortable with few to none large, scratchy seams. And don't let the slim fit fool you: between being made of leather and having dark colors, it heats up very quickly in open sunlight. I do not recommend wearing this in temperatures higher than 80 degrees Fahrenheit (~26 Celsius), and even that's pushing it. Furthermore, the red accent colors are much darker than in the product photos, more of a blood-red color. This is a good thing because: 1- the darker red is truer to the original jacket, and 2- the darker red is more masculine in appearance (if it matters to you).All in all, this is an incredible bargain for a leather jacket that looks incredible. This is going to sound shallow, but from just walking around campus in the past few weeks I've had it, ladies will turn their heads to get a better look at me (and yes, a couple guys as well). Even people who don't know a thing about Mass Effect will note just how good this thing looks. And it's honestly kind of fun when you run into someone who recognizes the N7 patch and the red stripes. If you want a slim fit type leather jacket and/or are a Mass Effect fan, do NOT pass this up.Really beautiful jacket. Nice quality, as advertised. Get lots of compliments!I wasn't expecting puffy shoulders. The leather is very shiny and looks over-waxed which cheapens the look . I will use a solvent to remove it. Hopefully that will work. Otherwise it's not a bad looking jacket.Love it! BUT with 1" to 1 1 /2" imperfection. The sleeves need to be longer. I do not have long arms either. Other than that its really cute. Sometimes I wish I can be a part of the clothes design teams!!The jacket fits amazing and the leather looks great I am so happy with this purchase.Love it nothing to dislike fabulousI purchased the Resident Evil jacket for the upcoming metrocon, and am very happy with the quality of this jacket. I originally purchased a large, which was too small for me because my shoulders are rather wide, despite me having a 44 inch chest. I was able to work directly with BlingSoul in order to get the right size, and they made sure that I had the jacket before metrocon. I would definitely reccomend the Resident Evil jacket to anyone looking for a good looking, and decently priced cosplay jacket, and even to those who just want a good looking everyday jacket.Loved the jacket.... zipper broke on the first day I wore it out. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful piece.
