I’ve ordered the Blackhawk 2.0 Motorcycle Shirt and couldn’t be happier with both the product and the experience. A big thanks to Grant and the team for taking the time to answer all my questions in detail and helping me choose the right size.
I already own the ALPHA Motorcycle Jacket 2.0 and 3.0 in XL, and the Blackhawk fits perfectly in XL too with enough room to comfortably wear a sweatshirt underneath.
The fabric, fit and design are exactly what I love about Akin Moto: black, minimalistic and understated, but still seriously capable on the bike. And just like my Alpha jackets, it looks great off the bike too. These are genuinely daily wearables that are adventure-ready.
I’ve already put multiple road trips on my Alpha, including some pretty harsh rain, and it has never disappointed. I can’t wait to put the Blackhawk through its paces on my summer road trips!
One small request: please expand further into Europe so we can avoid the dreadful customs charges ! 😅
Keep up the great work, Grant and team : brilliant products and brilliant service. 🤘
Thanks so much for the fantastic review, Jean-Paul! We really appreciate your support and kind words, and we're stoked to hear you're enjoying the Blackhawk. Hopefully we'll see you putting it through its paces on plenty more road trips! 🤘
Warm when it's cool, cool when it's warm
Got a size large and it is a great fit on me, not too baggy and not too tight that I struggle on a ride. Still able to put on an undershirt to layer up when it's colder. The ventilation works great and does give you some more maneuverability. Inner pockets have a lot of room compared to the chest pockets, perfect for a larger phone.
Thanks Joshua! We're stoked to hear the shirt is working well as an everyday riding option. We're glad the Large is giving you enough room to move and layer up, and it's great to hear the inner pockets are handy for a larger phone! Ride safe
I usually default to XXL clothing but it is always hit and miss buying online. The Akin way of measuring is a great way to gage what size to buy. I went up a size to XXXL to allow for an extra layer underneath with the armour and I highly recommend. This is my new favourite jacket, it looks great on the bike and just as good at the bar. Great product I now want the other colour.
Thanks so much for the fantastic review Sam!
We're so glad our sizing guide helped take the guesswork out of ordering online. Sizing up to allow for the armour and an extra layer underneath is exactly what we'd recommend, so it's great to hear it's worked out so well for you.
We love hearing that the Blackhawk 2.0 has become your new favourite jacket. Thanks again for your support, and hopefully the other colour finds its way into your wardrobe before too long!
Excellent quality shirt , absolutely love it. Fits perfectly and is super comfortable
Thanks for letting us know how the Blackhawk Shirt is going Shane! That's awesome to hear and cheers for ordering with us. Ride safe!
The shirt is stylish, fits very well, and is very comfortable. As mentioned in the size guide, it’s a shirt that fits fairly close to the body, but I like that it’s not as bulky as motoshirts from other brands. So if you want to wear a sweatshirt or hoodie underneath, you should size up.
What’s even better about Akin Moto is the customer service. I ordered from Germany, and Grant has been an absolute legend helping me out by providing measurements and photos just to make sure I picked the right sizes for the products. Always helpful, always friendly, and always very quick to reply. 10 out of 10 — hands down the best customer service I’ve ever experienced.
Philipp, thanks so much for the amazing review and for the support all the way from Germany! We’re so glad the shirt fit and feel has worked out well for you, and we appreciate you mentioning the sizing notes too. It means a lot to hear the customer service was awesome for you as well. Thanks again for taking the time to share this - enjoy the gear and ride safe!
