Found it on closeout at NewEnough for $60:

Probably not great for high speed pavement slides as it's just denim so it's not really 100% ATGATT but seems to provide some decent protection with CE armor in the elbows and shoulders.

Wore it Sunday for a long day ride. Fits well, seems well made (in China, ugh) and is comfortable. I added zipper pulls to all of the zippers. One thing nice about it is that the front flap snaps are very easy to fasten while riding - not true with some of my other jackets.

For the money I think it's a decent jacket.

Looks like a sturdy light jacket at a good price.

Here's another great deal if you haven't seen these before. I've got two pair, one is a bib coverall, and have used them many times.
These are heavy leather pants, German navy. They say there's no suspenders, but both of mine came with them. I highly recommend them, costing around thirty bucks....

I'm apx 200lb at 5'10". XL works well for me, gives good enough move-around room.
