I am thinking about ordering this, just want opinions about the length. I don't like cropped jackets and in the small, its less then 22 inches. It looks longer on the front then the back. Tia!

Love biker jackets. The shorter, the better. These do look nice.

It's far too cropped for me. I think it's a cute jacket, but I prefer real leather, and the length simply won't work for me being five 8. If one is five 4 or less, imo, it would be cute on.

I'd love to have a super high quality new moto jacket this year, but I won't buy one unless I find 25 inches or so in my size.

I personally think short, cropped jackets on women who are not petite cut them off and look disproportionate.

I'm 5' 4...maybe it will work. I like the faux leathers for several reasons. I have many leather jackets..love the fact, faux is water resistant too. Thanks so much for your help! Hope you find the perfect moto jacket! Cool

I think at five 4...it will look great on you!

I like this one...but again...too short for me! (it says 22 inches, but looks longer?) I hope you love your new jacket either way!

LOL--I know...they are all cropped. The bordeaux is pretty, but with my fair hair and skin and blue eyes, I don't look good in bordeaux. If you have silver/gray hair or dark hair, I think bordeaux would be beautiful. I like the blue/black and brown ones. Which do you think you are getting? It's really a cute jacket, and the price is good.

I looked at the bordeaux again, yes...it's pretty. If it's calling your name...get it. The scarf is super pretty too!!

I have so many brown and black jackets, I am blonde with green eyes. Wanted something different..really thinking about the bordeaux..just looked up Guiliana, and she's 5'9...doesn't look too cropped on her..do you think?? This is ridiculous..guess I should just go ahead and order..I am sure it will work. I have closets of Terry Lewis and Pam McCoy...the leathers seem stiff now..the faux is so soft. I would have to get lamb leather now, I've been spoiled. Miss Terry..!Cool

LOL You may be blonde but your coloring may be different than mine. I just don't look good in that color, but I'm sure you would look fabulous. It didn't look too short on her--I didn't realize G was five 9. I think it would be perfect on you. I, too, have quite a few jackets still from Terry Lewis. I donated some of her boxier ones, but I still own 6 or so. Some of her leather was stiff--I agree. The faux may be softer. And, it looks nice and lightweight. GO FOR IT! I think her items get good reviews, and I'd go with your gut! I hate stiff leather too so therefore I donated a lot or took a few to consignment shops. Please post your review!!!
