i have this jacket in grey; it's very nice and simple. they've changed the style, so these older ones are hard to find, but cheap when available ($39-$49).

new ones are out too, but there's a couple patches on it. not that that's a bad thing by any means.

I like the looks of a lot of the Shift gear before they started getting obnoxious with the design, logos, etc.

Does this jacket have armor? There's no info on that on these pages.

it has some padding in the arms and shoulders, a sleeve for back armor (not included), and a removable liner.
