So far, I LOVE this jacket. Being from the San Francisco bay area, we are "blessed" with a variety of micro-climates. It starts of at 30-35F in the morning and 65-70 in the afternoon. I commute daily, 60 miles #roundtrip# thru rush hour traffic. I'm loving the vents as it doesn't require me to remove the warmer lining, so far. I do have to open up most of the vents #the chest flaps, the chest zippers, the back zippers# for the ride home, lest I sweat. I did have the arm zippers open, but after about 10 miles, it was TOO cold!. It hasn't rained yet, but i'm SUPER confident that with how it's held up so far, I'm going to be pleased. I'm bummed that it doesn't have a "toll booth money" pocket. I'm 5'11", 220#, I wear a 46R jacket and the 2XL is a great fit. I chose this jacket over the Alpinestars Durban soley based on the awesome video review, even though it was a bit more expensive.

I have now had the opportunity to ride in mid 20 degree temperatures in the snow and in the rain. I must say that this product lives up to its promise of warmth and keeping you dry. Overall the product fits and looks great. You should buy at least a size larger than you normally wear. The design features have been well thought out and incorporated into the jacket. I love it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Love the jacket so far. Looks great, functions great, and fits great. Not used it in warm weather but it is the bomb in cold.

This is an expensive jacket to be sure. But, taken in context of all of the things that it does -- superior protection; excellent cold weather capability; and nice styling -- it is well worth the money. Just be aware that when you have all of the layers zipped in, this jacket fits a bit snug so make sure that you purchase a large enough size.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I was looking for a jacket with great protection and flexibility to be worn in any weather and all year round. I frequently make long trips through changing weather where it could easily be 80 and sunny when I hit the road and change to rainy and 30's. This jacket is easy to change of the fly and put the liners in or take them out depending on what you need.

I purchased this jacket after reading the reviews. I got a size XL although my normal size is large. With both liners in, the jacket is snug but with the winter liner out it feels a little roomier.
This is one amazing jacket. The attention to detail is better than on any other jacket I have bought. Every seam, snap, and button is right where it should be. Ventilation is good. All in all, expensive but it is a 4 season waterproof jacket so in the long run it is worth the investment.

I don't usually order clothes online because I have a hRd enough time getting them to fit in the store! I'm 5'8", 185, with a 44" chest and a pant waist of 34". But I was really impressed with this jacket/pant combo and so got a rep at RevZilla on the phone. They walked me through the fit (I ordered an XL - never wore an XL in anything before) and it fit great! Obviously, it runs small. I've only had it a couple of weeks, and only ridden in the heat (95*), but it kept me cool and comfy - both jacket and pants. I live in southwest Oregon, so they will get plenty of use in cold and rainy weather this winter. Great fit and finish, very well made. Worth every penny! I ride a black 2009 Victory Vision Tour Premium.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I am truly a size 52 euro, the first jacket I recieved was true to size. With the addition of the Exkin liner it was just too tight. if you are on the cusp of a size I would recomend you go up to the next size as there is enough adjustment to over lap the sizes for warmer days without the lining. I upgraded to the SAS Tech Back Pad, After removing the standard one I was glad I had made the choice. With all of the features of this product you think this woul be the standard. Up grade and you will be glad that you did. Experienced some rain for about an hour with NO liners, Jacket shed the water and I arrived dry as a bone.

I have a rev'it sand jacket but the hydra liner leaks a bit in the arms. I would like to upgrade the liner to GORE-TEX since it just loves to rain here in the PNW.

REV'IT does not sell the liner separately, however, if your liner is leaking it could be covered under the manufacturer's warranty. We suggest contacting Customer Service 888.792.9455 9am-7pm EST Monday-Friday.

REV'IT! Jackets are European (slim) cut and generally more narrow in the shoulders than other brands. Please take this into account when choosing the appropriate size. Most riders with any body type other than "slim" would need to order one size larger than they typically might wear in other brands, if you are in between sizes, we recommend erring on the larger side. If you have any questions about REV'IT! sizing please call 877-792-9455 for help.
