Great summer jacket
This jacket is very comfortable in hot +30C/85F summer riding and the removable liner is nice for cooler 10C/33F mornings in Spring and early-Fall. Armour is light and fits well. I went up one size, jacket is comfortably roomy if I want to add layers. I don't notice the tether at all.

Not for long torsos
I ended up returning the jacket. It is very well made and comfortable, but it is just too short. It was like a motorcycle tank-top on me, even though the arms and chest were bang on. If they made it just half a foot longer or so I would have kept it. The search continues. For reference I'm about 6'2" and 175lb.

Great investment
Sadly I got to experience what the airbag deployment felt like, sadly the shoulders need to be fixed from the fall however the jacket saved me from far worse injuries! Highly recommend this jacket

Size runs small vs nominal size, but sizing chart was right on.

Be careful about sizing
I wear M size jackets ( 54 euro), I needed to order XXL. So be sure to check out size chart

Perfect fit!
I bought this a couple of weeks ago and am happy with the fit. As mentioned in other reviews it seems heavy at first but once you have it on I don't notice it. I was concerned about the suggestions to order 2 sizes up from what I normally wear so I only went up one size and figured I could switch it out if needed. I am normally wearing a large size and I opted for the XL. This turned out to be the right choice in my case.
Chest = 37.5; Waist = 37; Hips = 39; Arms = 24;Back = 26
There is room to wear the included liner and still not feel crowded. If I add an extra layer for more warmth it would start to be snug but not uncomfortable.

Very comfortable
The inner jacket kept my torso cozy and dry while I drove through an atmospheric river and soaked every other part of my body.

Questions
does it come with inflation canister ? what do you do after it inlates..to use the jacket agin?..how to deflate ? What is the sizing for the jacket?
Yes the canister is included. You would remove the canister to deflate the jacket. See "Helite Reload Procedure" on YouTube.
Keep in mind that Helite products run slightly smaller than average U.S. sizing.
