Rev'it Airwave 4 Textile Trousers - Black Fits me very well, being able to select trouser length is a win, lightweight with armour untested re airflow (March in the U.K.), but confident based on the construction and mesh it’ll do the job well.
My only complaint, I would prefer belt loops / belt instead of the side adjusters (they do work but a bit fiddly).
Hopefully this will prove useful on my planned Southern European tour, time will tell eh.
Rev'it Airwave 4 Textile Jacket - Silver / Anthracite The jacket feels well made with the an air of quality, difficult tell how well it flows air, it’s early March in the U.K. Jacket (and strides) have been purchased for a summer tour around Europe, so I’m expecting some good results.
Optional back armour purchased (quite bulky and tricky to fit) and it might prevent some through flow of air, but that’s the compromise. The chest armour was also purchased, less intrusive and if it prevents cracked or broken ribs that’s a win, but, I have to question its location it seems to low, and again there’s going to be compromise on air flow.
The good news is you can always take the armour out when it’s really hot but that’s down to personal choice.
Overall I’d give the jacket a firm 8 of 10, it’s a relatively simple design and like my other Rev It jackets the fit was spot on for me XL, sleeve length etc.
Rev'it Pioneer Gore-Tex Boots - Black Not cheap, but the right ‘height’ and with the BOA.
Daily commuter, so rapid kit on, kit off is important.
UK 25-26 winter, not a drop of water through.
Also get the impression that they will be fine for warmer weather.
Rev'it Discovery Gore-Tex Boots - Brown They tick all the boxes. Keep my feet warm and dry, Boa system is brilliant and quick. The overall protection is perfect and they are a great length. Not as comfortable to walk around in as described. But I'd say better than most of this boot type. They look great too!
Rev'it Everest Gore-Tex Boots - Black I was very happy with with the boot. its not the normal boot I would buy, comfort, dry feet in heavy rain.
Rev'it Everest Gore-Tex Boots - Black Great boots. Look really good and exceptionally comfortable.
Rev'it Mangrove Textile Gloves - Silver / Black Prefer MX style gloves over hard knuckle gloves, these are perfect for that in-between! very light but very warm!
