Fantastic Product.

Bought 2 jackets, both Revitt and required a back protector. The seesoft is versatile and reasonably priced. The product was essy to install into the jacket. It is layered and offers great protection for your back.

Decent back protector but hot
12 Sep 2025 by Crispo
After wrestling this back protector into my Rev'it Airwave 4 jacket (I later discovered that it REALLY helps to warm it up before trying to bend it into the extremely snug fitting pocket) I was pretty pleased with the obviously high level of protection that it offers. However, I've rated this four stars rather than five as the layers of dense foam material that it's made from offers bugger all ventilation while riding. I spent the entire summer with an incredibly sweaty back whenever the weather got hot as a result. Seeing how the back protector is designed for the Airwave jacket, it's a shame that it doesn't allow better airflow so your back would stay as cool as the rest of your upper body. Even if the layer closest to your back was more mesh-like, it might help? Anyway, I'd rather be a bit hot and bothered with top grade protection than not, so it's an acceptable compromise.

feels safe

I bought this at the same time as a Rev'it mesh jacket. At first I thought it might be a bit stiff but it is designed specifically for the range. I was wrong as in use the layers move quite well meaning you are safe but not constrained

Back protector for Rev'it Apex Combi suit
05 Jul 2025 by Simon B
Bought this Rev'it Seesoft back protector for the suit as recommended by Rev'it. Its not easy to slip into its pocket correctly but stays put once there. Fortunately havent crash tested it but after wearing twice have forgotten its there so comfortable enough. Well made/designed piece of kit

The right protection and the right fit
10 Jun 2025 by Mark B
Adding this to my smock made the whole garment a little expensive. However, Sportsbikeshop had this at the lowest price. It is a snug fit in the pocket and so it will not move. It is also large and so gives a good amount of cover. The quality is what you would expect from a major kit supplier.

Essential purchase.

Perfect fit for my Revit Eclipse Ladies Touring Jacket. Just check the jacket before you order the size (it tells you on there!). Now I can stop swapping back protectors back and forth every time I change jackets and spend more time riding!

Comfortable.
14 May 2025 by Paul
Hopefully I'm not going to test this protector but in the jacket it's comfortable and flexibly enough to forget it's there.
Robbie in the store fitted it in the pouch when I purchased the jacket but it looked simple to do and I'll take it out and check it periodically.

Description
Manufacturer
Rev'it Seesoft Back Protector Insert - RV Type
The Seesoft CE-Level 2 back protector insert is designed to absorb variable impacts without compromising on comfort, ventilation or freedom of movement. The highly impact-resistant blend of Nitrille and Polynorbornene rubber results in a memory foam that is multi-impact rated and CE certified to the highest level (EN 1621-2:2003 - level 2).
In the case of severe angular impact, the individual Memory foam layers will shift relative to one another, resulting in impact dispersion over a larger effective surface area, and therefore minimizing the energy that is transmitted to the spine and back. By applying a multiple-layer concept, Rev'it has developed a flexible back protector insert that performs consistently in all conditions. The size required for a particular Rev'it jacket will have the type and size marked on the protector pocket.
