REV'IT! Ignition Leather Jacket

To Be Seen In

I ride a Triumph Sprint - for those who relate bikes to clothing.
This is a first class 'all' weather jacket. I have worn it in tempratures (Kansas) from 30 degrees F to 95. It works. It is made of very high quality products - you are getting what you pay for. It looks good and has drawn many admiring comments (at my age this is important). It represents very good value for money. I would make only two minor criticsms. The zips on the pockets are good quality YKK but they need a leather tag so that they can be operated with gloves. The waterproof liner connects to the sleeve via an elastic loop - this loop has torn off. Not vital but a minor quality defect. Overall, good safety, good looks and good price - go buy. As a first class supplier i would like Rev'it to add a leather tag to their zips. As for the sleeve attachment - make it velcro (clip buttons will probably rip the waterproof material) or don't bother.

1 year Review

I have put 9,000+ miles on the this jacket during the last year. Great Jacket. It has worn well.

I love the fact that all theprotection pads are fixed. No velcro straps, no snap straps.

I wear this baby usually with no liners all spring, summer and fall here in west central florida.

Please note the hydro liner sticks to you arms if wearing a short sleeve shirt and you start to sweat.

I would/will buy this jacket again!

For reference purposes.. I ride a naked R bike.....

I LOVE this jacket.

If you're a small, petite girl (size 0-2) or you're tall, have long arms and a narrow torso and have trouble finding something that fits, this jacket is the one for you.

Although I don't exactly fit this description, I wear it anyway because I love how it works and fits. I'm 5'3, have a short torso and average arms. Because I ride an SV650S, the sleeves actually come in handy. You will find that the sleeves tend to be a little long on Rev'it gear in general. But for many of you who have the challenge of fitting long limbs, you're going to LOVE this jacket.

I've ditched my all leather and all textile jackets for this hybrid. For me, it does everything I've asked it to. Except the one time I was on the freeway, in the pouring rain going 75. I think water at that speed, combined with the wind makes it even difficult for this liner to fully keep the water out, unfortunately. I have worn this one at lower city speeds (20-30-40mph) and have Never had any problems with getting wet. I still adore this jacket and would Highly recommend it to anyone who's looking for the style of a leather jacket with the function of a textile.

Rev'it is the best at making protective gear that flatters and fits a woman's body and this jacket is no exception.

Phenomenal!

What can I say. Out of all the Rev'It! gear I bought a year ago this jacket has got to be the best. It works/looks great with the Challenge Pants (zips together and they both have the same waterproof liner).

It doesn't hurt that it looks awesome as well. I get more comments on it than I do about my Bike it seems.

Personally I believe this to be an all weather jacket. I Wear it in the summer with a T-Shirt and it breathes great. If it rains or is slightly chilly I put in the rain liner. When its even cooler I put in the warm liner. Though its possible, I have seen no use for having the warmth liner in without the rain/wind liner. And when its REALLY cold I simply put my heated jacket on underneath and stay toasty in sub-freezing conditions.

Great jacket

Fantastic jacket, with the 2 removable inner layers perfect for the cooler mornings and hot afternoons. Haven't ridden in the rain yet but so far no complaints at all.

Still good one year later...

I've owned the Ignition for a year and used it regularly, so time for a long-term review. Cosmetically, it's aged very well and is still extremely stylish, probably more than when new. The jacket has a slim Euro fit so buy accordingly.
I've worn it in all riding weather. It vents well on hot days, but the black color heats up quickly. With the liner installed I've stayed dry in two hr rides in medium rain. It isn't very good in the cold unless you wear a thermal layer, because there is no insulation in the arms except the breathable waterproof liner. Of course, it isn't marketed as a cold weather jacket.
All in all, a very good jacket that looks good on and off the bike (as long as the bike is nearby), and vents quite well for something with this much structure.

Best all-around jacket

Great fitting jacket that excels at everything. Wearable with liners into the 40's, without into the 90's. Haven't had a chance to wear it in the rain yet.
