LEARNING CENTER
Any item from within the REV'IT! collection is designed and developed according to our Engineered skin® design philosophy, or its urban specified compeer Tailored Technology.
This means all of our products are constructed with the values Performance, Innovation, and Design as a starting point. To give you an insight on what elements come to play before anything can be called motorcycle gear, we're happy to explain the different aspects that go into the fabrication of it.
DESIGN PHILOSOPHIES
In the continuous search to improve techniques and materials, REV’IT! has led the field in developing smart and innovative products over the years.
Engineered skin® design method In the continuous search to improve techniques and materials, REV’IT! has led the field in developing smart and innovative products over the years. Inspired by the natural qualities of the skin, REV’IT! has developed the unique Engineered skin® design method to improve the fit and performance of motorcycle safety apparel. The result is an ergonomic pre-shaped product that is capable of handling extreme pressure and offers the best balance of protection and comfort. REV’IT! began developing its Engineered skin® design method back in 2001, when it set out to improve the functional performance of materials by relocating seams to areas at lower risk for impact. This innovative concept further evolved with advances in 3D design, which allowed designers to observe a garment from every conceivable angle before placing a single physical stitch. This advance aided considerably in the development of new patterns and construction techniques. Every stitch that perforates an area of fabric or leather inherently compromises the material’s durability. But with the Engineered skin® construction method, engineers can mitigate potential failure points while improving overall performance. Durable, flexible and abrasion resistant materials are placed at key areas for maximum protection while maintaining comfort and freedom of movement. Applying stretch material in these areas helps REV’IT! strike a perfect balance in its garments between wearability and safety. Today the principles of Engineered skin® can be found in nearly every item REV’IT! develops, which indicates our commitment to safety, quality, and design. Engineered skin® has already made a significant mark on the motorcycle apparel industry, and this dynamic design philosophy will continue to influence future REV’IT! product development for years to come. Always evolving, always improving - Engineered skin® is part of our DNA. Tailored Technology design methoDThe Tailored Technology design philosophy combines our years of experience and deep-rooted technical knowledge with our abiding love for fashion and design. The Tailored Technology concept incorporates essential road protection and functional details into REV’IT!’s stylish and elegant urban collection. All REV’IT! products are designed following the Engineered skin® philosophy that consists of three core principles: safety, functionality, design. The urban collection, however, is designed according to the Tailored Technology design credo, which uses the same REV’IT! core principles, albeit with a different order; one that puts design first, followed by safety and functionality. All three principals are equally important in both philosophies; only the sequence in which they are used and the vision per design differs. Products with the Tailored Technology label are designed to integrate in daily life, combining just the right amount of fashionable detailing with cleverly disguised safety and functional features. These products provide both safety and comfort without sacrificing style. The result is a truly unique range of motorcycle apparel that is as sophisticated and stylish as it is functional and safe.
THE BASICS
The right combination of materials and features makes all the difference in the levels of functionality, comfort and safety of a product
All materials and features in our products are carefully selected to work together synergistically to enhance your riding experience.
OUTER SHELL
The outer shell is the first layer of a motorcycle garment, and the one that will hit the asphalt in the unfortunate case of a mishap.
Needless to say that abrasion resistance is the most important aspect of this part, but this aspect can be combined with other material characteristics depending on the use of the garment. In short there are two categories in which outer shell materials are divided; leather and textile. Both categories make up for numerous varieties that enable us to purpose-develop every piece of REV'IT! gear with the right outer shell material.

PROTECTION
Often when the word "protection" is mentioned, people understandably think of protectors such as limb- and back protectors.
All REV'IT! clothing comes standard equipped with CE-rated limb protection. Depending on the use these can be of the essential CE-level 1 or the premium CE-level 2. This means that the energy that still passes through after an impact test needs to be less than 35KN (CE-level 1) or even less than 20KN (CE-level 2). The lesser energy passes through a protector, the lesser impact energy had to be dealt with by the human body. Back protectors are tested in a similar way, with a maximum of 18KN of residual energy earning the essential CE-level 1, and 9KN earning the premium CE-level 2.
Click here to learn about the different protectors we use in our motorcycle gear.
The SEESOFT™ CE-Level 2 back protector insert is designed to absorb variable impacts without compromising on comfort, ventilation or freedom of movement.
The stitching in motorcycle garments contributes greatly to the abrasion resistance of the total gear. This is why REV'IT! uses safety seams on garment areas at increased risk of impact. Safety seams have a visible as well as an invisible seam. This construction keeps the material of the outer shell together, even when the visible seam is thorn.
The Betac® protection in our suits is the same as our heroes use in professional racing series such as MotoGP. They are CE rated for the highest level of protection. The use of Velcro makes sure they are fixed to the outer shell, preventing them from moving or turning in case of an impact.
This MotoGP spec protector is adjustable on the shoulder, making it possible to customize the fit of the protector to the position on the bike. Thanks to the strong Velcro it will stay in place once positioned.

PWR|shield is developed in-house by the R&D department. PWR|shield is created with a unique knit technique which results in a fabric with unsurpassed cut, tear and abrasion resistance level.
PWR|yarn is a 100% nylon thread with a unique internal bonding, which imparts excellent durability, high tensile and breaking strength, and ultimate abrasion resistance. Its strength comes from its unique structure, as a 3-wired yarn with an extra 4th wire spun into it. This 4th wire is heated to bond with the other 3 threads, so it will never unravel or split open. Seams with PWR|yarn hold under even the most extreme stress, and are perfect for outer seams on gloves and garments.
Stitching seams can be the weakest link in motorcycle garments, as they can rip upon impact. This ripping of seams can be prevented, however, through safety-stitching technology. REV’IT! uses safety stitching on garment areas at increased risk of impact (directive on the definition of risk category in zones 13595-1:2002).
SaS Tec® armour offers the best possible protection during a dynamic impact. The armour is made of a new polyurethane foam material, without a hard shell or edges, which surpasses the required CE-values by 50%. The closed air cells function by means of progressive absorption: with a slowly occurring stressor, the material remains soft and flexible, whereas sudden impact will cause the protector’s air cells to respond quickly with increased resilience, creating a protective shield where the rider needs it most.
For maximum grip the soles of REV’IT! motorcycle footwear feature a tread profile that provides excellent grip. No more slipping and sliding when you put your foot down to stop on oily road surfaces.
Seamless protection pads. With a thermal welding technique, REV’IT! applies foam protection-panels on high-impact areas such as shoulders and hips. The elimination of stitching offers increased safety, by removing the seams that are vulnerable to impact in all motorcycle apparel, as well as a more sophisticated look.
SuperFabric® technology is an advanced process that transforms ordinary fabrics into unique, highly protective materials. Multiple protective shields are applied close to each other within the fabric, but remain separate to allow maximum flexibility. These micro guard-plates provide an additional layer of protection, without adding weight, and help prevent abrasion to underlying fabrics. SuperFabric® is five times more abrasion-resistant than leather, with just half the weight.
Self-contouring foam that is not CE-approved, but still offers a great number of impact-resistant properties, this product is used in areas where mobility and fit are a must, such as the hips. Temperfoam® comes in a solid version as well as a perforated version.
Heat is used to shape the shin plate, as the shin is a very vulnerable place on a rider’s bike and requires an exact, customized fit. The REV’IT! shin plate conforms exactly to your body for ultimate protection.
The heel of the boot is reinforced for added safety. The rider won't notice it while wearing as the hard plastic has been heated to mold it into the perfect shape. The reinforced heel cup also contributes to a better posture of the foot.
The toe area of the boot has been reinforced with a thermoformed hard plastic toecap. Thermoformed means the plastic has been heated to model the perfect shape. The rider won't feel it this critical feature when wearing the boot, but will benefits from the added safety.
These knuckle protectors are made from thermoplastic rubber (TPR). TPR combines the processability of plastics with the durability of rubbers, while creating a more lightweight and formable material. TPR offers excellent resistance to flex fatigue and tearing, making it a perfect protective material for hard shell knuckle protectors.
Palm slider made of a durable and high abrasion resistant TPU material at the palm side of the glove. The palm slider makes sure that the glove slides in case the palm of the hand comes in contact with the asphalt. The abrasion resistance of gloves equipped with these sliders is greatly increased, thus reducing the risk of injury significantly.
Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU) is a highly durable synthetic material, used in many REV’IT! products for protection and waterproofing.
Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU) is a highly durable synthetic material, used in many REV’IT! products for protection against impact and to optimize sliding.
The dual-comp protector consists of a 3D, pre-shaped honeycomb structure of TPU material, topped by an aluminum high-impact shield, for ultimate sliding. This lightweight hard part increases the level of protection significantly, without adding the considerable weight of traditional plastic hard parts. The dual comp protectors have been perforated to allow airflow to enter the gloves keeping your hands cool and comfortable.
WATERPROOFING
Although the name does not suggest it, waterproofing is another form of protection that motorcycle gear provides.
In this case it is protection against the elements, keeping you dry and therefore helping to keep you warm as well. There are several ways to make motorcycle garment waterproof, but basically there are two aspects that come to play. First of all: the membrane. The membrane is the actual layer that makes a garment waterproof. On one side it prevents water drops from entering the garment, but at the same time it provides breathability that enables perspiration to move away from the body. We use both GORE –TEX® membranes as well as hydratex® membranes in our garments.
Serious adventure and touring riders who take on long distance traveling or commuting regardless of the weather will choose GORE-TEX® for its durable character and its unsurpassed breathability level. Those who ride in less extreme weather conditions, or when budget comes to play during the choice for a membrane, products that contain a hydratex® membrane offer a good alternative with similar waterproof characteristics. The other aspect that comes to play is the way the membrane is used inside the garment. For anyone riding mainly in bad weather conditions ideally the membrane is laminated to the outer shell, which ensures the lowest possible water pickup. Anyone riding in variable conditions will prefer the so-called liner to drop construction, in which the rider is able to take out the membrane and with that optimizing ventilation.
Click here to find out about the different membranes and the way they are used in our products.
In this construction the GORE-TEX® membrane is bonded to the outer shell and the inner lining. As there is no more movement between the layers, this construction is extremely durable. And the result is a 100% waterproof, windproof and highly breathable outer shell—offering unsurpassed durable wearer comfort
The GORE-TEX® liner with Micro Grid Backer technology is designed to provide breathable comfort and durable waterproof and windproof protection. This revolutionary technology improves internal abrasion and snag resistance, enhances garment breathability, and decreases garment weight.
GORE-TEX® gloves liners are durably waterproof, windproof, and highly breathable. The Gore grip technology uses an innovative layer construction by which they provide better dexterity and tactility for optimum performance.
OutDry® uses a one-piece patented construction that creates a waterproof and surprisingly breathable barrier. This impenetrable layer is heat-bonded directly to the outer fabric, leaving no seams or gaps, and no way for water to get in. OutDry® technology ensures the outer fabric won’t pick up water while improving fit and dexterity, resulting in a lighter, more comfortable boot - and a drier foot.
By laminating the GORE-TEX membrane to the fabric, a 100% waterproof, windproof and highly breathable outer shell is created, offering unsurpassed durable wearer comfort.
GORE-TEX® Performance Shells are designed to provide breathable comfort and durably waterproof and windproof protection for the touring biker. In the LTD (Liner-to-Drop) construction, the membrane can be easily removed from the jacket or trousers. The inner side of the 3-Layer Liner construction uses a knit textile that offers superior comfort, aesthetics, and durability against abrasion. This layer is bonded to a specific GORE-TEX® membrane and a third outer-shell layer. This 3-Layer Liner construction is suspended under the outer shell material of the garment, with no further internal lining required. The result is a detachable lining construction with reduced weight and bulk. It offers touring riders an attractive garment design for any weather condition: wear the membrane inside the garment when cold weather demands it, or carry it in the storage pocket when you need maximum ventilation.
GORE-TEX® with Paclite® technology is windproof, waterproof and extremely breathable. It is the ideal material for motorcycle clothing as it protects you against the elements. We added a thin lining to protect the Paclite® membrane and to ensure that it won't stick to your skin when riding in warmer weather without a thermal liner.
A 3-layer construction. The membrane has a layer of protective tricot laminated on each side of the membrane. This results in a waterproof and breathable membrane that is also very durable. This type of membrane also offers maximum flexibility, as it can be removed from the garment: wear the membrane inside the garment when the weather demands it, or take it out when you need maximum ventilation.
Waterproof hydratex® | G-liner coating is applied to the inside of the garment’s inner lining, and the seams are taped to ensure that the garment is waterproof. The REV’IT! hydratex® | G-liner coating is used in the construction of products that demand a basic level of all-weather protection. For most products, the G-liner can not be removed. But now we made the G-liner detachable, and in some cases we add a mesh lining, to prevent the material from sticking to your skin. This maximizes comfort, while preserving the properties of the G-liner construction.
The GORE-TEX® membrane is the essential element of all GORE-TEX® Gloves. It contains over 1.4 billion microscopic pores per square centimeter. These pores are 20,000 times smaller than a water droplet, but 700 times larger than a water vapor molecule. This makes the GORE-TEX® membrane completely waterproof from the outside, while allowing perspiration to escape from the inside. An oleophobic, or oil-hating, substance is integrated into the membrane, preventing the penetration of such compounds as body oils and insect repellent, which could otherwise affect the membrane.
GORE-TEX® Performance Shells are designed to provide breathable comfort and durably waterproof and windproof protection for the touring biker. In the Z-Liner construction used for GORE-TEX® Performance Shells, a specific GORE-TEX® membrane is bonded to a lightweight carrier fabric. This Z-Liner is freely suspended between the outer material and the lining of the jacket or trousers. This creates a highly featured, attractive garment design, perfectly meeting the needs of the touring biker in any weather condition.
The GORE-TEX® Pro Shell is the right choice for riding in extreme conditions. Engineered with the most rugged, most breathable, durably waterproof and windproof fabrics, GORE-TEX® Pro Shells meet the demands of riding professionals and serious enthusiasts. In the 3-Layer construction, a specific GORE-TEX® membrane is firmly bonded to a tough outer material and a robust inner lining. GORE-TEX® Pro Shell fabrics also allow less water to be absorbed by the outer shell.
With the GORE-TEX® X-TRAFIT™ Product Technology, Gore has united all the best characteristics in one motorcycle glove: optimum grip for secure control, durable waterproofness for dry hands, and breathability for ideal climate comfort. The secret of the GORE-TEX® Motorcycle Gloves with X-TRAFIT™ Product Technology is their innovative layered construction. The inner lining, the GORE-TEX® insert, and the outer fabric are joined together with a ground-breaking technology that allows the characteristics of the individual layers to be retained. The result: 3-layer comfort, 1-layer feeling.
A 3-layer construction, the membrane has a layer of protective tricot laminated on each side of the membrane. This results in a waterproof and breathable membrane that is also very durable. This type of membrane also offers maximum flexibility, as it can be removed from the garment: wear the membrane inside the garment when the weather demands it, or carry it in the storage pocket when you need maximum ventilation.
A 3-layer fabric. The innovative REV’IT! Hydratex® | 3L Pro membrane consists of three functional layers, which are laminated together to become a single strong layer of all-weather protection. A waterproof membrane is laminated directly onto the inside of the abrasion-resistant outer shell, and a protective inner lining laminated onto the membrane itself prevents run-and-tear damage. Water repellence, light weight, and high breathability are all benefits of the 3-layer system.
This waterproof coating is applied to the inside of the garment’s inner lining, and the seams are taped to ensure that the garment is waterproof. The REV’IT! Hydratex® | G-liner coating is used in the construction of products that demand a basic level of all-weather protection.
Hydratex® | Lite provides all-weather protection with just one layer. The inner surface of the outer shell features a waterproof coating with micropores, which keeps rain and wind out.
A waterproof layer is laminated onto a carrier to construct the REV’IT! Hydratex® | Z-liner membrane. The carrier, in turn, protects the membrane against wear-and-tear damage, and the seams of the membrane are taped to ensure waterproofing. The Z- liner is constructed between the lining and the outer shell. The REV’IT! Hydratex® | Z-liner membrane is used in garments that demand a high level of all-weather protection.
The REV’IT! WindBarrier® membrane is laminated between two separate layers of fabric: a stretchable outer layer, and a soft fleece inner layer. This combination blocks against wind and helps repel water. Stopping the wind and rain helps prevent hypothermia, and improves a rider’s level of comfort and warmth.
INSULATION
Keeping yourself at the right temperature is essential to stay comfortable, but also –and more importantly- keep yourself focused.
When you start to concentrate more on how to fight a low body temperature than on the situation on the road, it's not unthinkable to find yourself in the middle of an unfortunate mishap. This is why we focus on providing the right type of insulation for the right kind of motorcyclist, resulting in a wide variety of possibilities when it comes to keeping yourself warm, comfortable and focused for virtually any kind of riding style. For serious adventure riders taking on the elements by breaking the boundaries we have a specific line of thermal liners which can be bought separately from the jacket itself.
Click here to find out about the different materials we use in our insulating thermal liners.
POLARTEC® Alpha is a highly efficient insulation fabric, which keeps the wearer warm when inactive and is highly breathable to wick moisture away when active.
Thinsulate® G insulation features large air pockets to trap heat, allowing a garment to remain extremely warm for an extended period of time. The spacious air pockets also allow a garment to remain lightweight and quick to dry.
Thinsulate® C insulation traps heat while adding a thin, compact layer, providing comfortable insulation that allows for sensitivity at the controls. It dries quickly and is featherweight.
A detachable fake fur collar buttons to the jacket collar, allowing for a change of style. The wool-like fabric provides added insulation to the neck and throat area when installed.
PrimaLoft® Gold is made of microfibers that trap and store body heat in a remarkably light material that affords good grip.
PrimaLoft® Gold Eco with grip control is the thinnest of materials with the highest insulation values. Designed to resist compression, the air pockets in this material efficiently trap and store body heat while remaining compact. REV'IT! is the first motorcycle brand in the world to add this high quality insulation to gloves.
A hard-shell knuckle has been incorporated in the glove to protect your hand against impact and your skin from abrasion. To maintain a classic look, the hard-shell knuckle is covered with PWR|shell twill stretch for covert performance.
Fake fur is an insulating fabric made out of a mix of synthetic –polyester and acrylic materials. The specific weave allows it to resemble a look and feel similar to wool.
Polar fleece is a wool-like napped insulating fabric made from a type of polyester called polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
Thinsulate™ KK is a 100% polyester mid-loft insulation that provides warmth and comfort to any garment.
Cynix® is a multi-layer lining system made with a unique ultrasonic technology. Two layers of Nylon Tafetta - with a high-performance insulation layer in between - are quilted together by welding the layers with sonic vibrations (instead of old-fashioned sewing). This thermo lining type offers high-performance insulation, but still with excellent, lightweight suppleness.
In these garments we have added a thermal liner to the detachable hydratex® | G-liner. This becomes one layer that can be easily removed on warm, dry days, and easily added when you need protection from the rain and cold.
The Exkin® Air insulation layer is an extremely lightweight, soft and warm, multi-layer structure that adds very little thickness to a jacket, pair of pants, or winter gloves. The optimum choice to keep your body warm, this padding is thin and perfectly soft, but still extremely warm. The CLO index (warmth insulation index) of Exkin® Air is among the highest on the market. With maximum insulation performance and virtually zero bulk, this is one of the top insulation materials on the market.
Dexfill® is a unique mixture of soft polyester microfibers and hollow polyester fibers with thermal insulation properties, it keeps its attributes and original shape even after repeated cleaning. Low weight and flexibility allow great freedom of movement.
Duck down is the fine layer of fluffy feathers found underneath the normal feathers of a duck. When down is compressed the filaments of the fibres create small air pockets that trap in air, and thus heat. Duck down is extremely warm and very lightweight.
The Exkin® Air insulation layer is an extremely lightweight, soft and warm, multi-layer structure that adds very little thickness to a jacket, pair of pants, or winter gloves. The optimum choice to keep your body warm, this padding is thin and perfectly soft, but still extremely warm. The CLO index (warmth insulation index) of Exkin® Air is among the highest on the market. With maximum insulation performance and virtually zero bulk, this is one of the top insulation materials on the market.
Fiberfill® consists of 100% polyester and offers excellent insulation. Fiberfill® is light so it does not weigh down garments. It is resistant to moisture and it will actually shed water rather than absorb it. Fiberfill is a manmade material and therefore anti-allergic and easy to care for.
Fleece fabric wicks moisture away from the body, while offering a high level of insulation, providing warmth and dryness for riding in cold conditions.
This type of insulation mimics the natural insulation properties of animal fur, a high loft construction; containing more air then fiber; it is a type of natural insulation that traps in the heat.
HyperKewl™ technology works by absorbing water into a proprietary polymer, which is stored between a water-resistant inner liner and ventilated outer fabric. Once air begins to flow through the piece the natural endothermic reaction that accompanies the evaporative process creates a cooling sensation for the wearer. Mimicking the skin’s natural cooling process—sweating—HyperKewl™ helps sap away excess body heat and stave off fatigue.
Micro fleece has a finer structure then normal fleece, while providing the same benefits of tremendous insulation and moisture-wicking dryness and comfort.
This liner has nano silver particles dispersed throughout, which help deodorize the material, rapidly absorbing odors and wicking away perspiration.
Polartec® Classic 100 offers outstanding, lightweight warmth and breathability. The 100% polyester velour construction creates air pockets that trap air and retain body heat. Polartec® Classic products dry quickly to minimize heat loss. After repeated laundering, these products maintain their insulating ability and remain resistant to pilling.
Primaloft® is made from a tightly woven microfiber structure, helping the body retain warmth and conserve energy.
Schoeller®-PCM ™ keeps the motorcyclist in the temperature comfort zone. Unlike so-called passive insulation (the inner lining of clothing), breathable “Phase Changing Material” (PCM ™) actively reacts to temperature changes: if the body temperature rises, Schoeller®-PCM ™ stores the surplus heat. When the temperature drops, the stored heat is then released to warm the body. This process is made possible by using continuously active, minuscule microcapsules filled with paraffin, which change their dynamic state according to the body’s temperature. This helps the motorcyclist maintain an ideal body temperature.
This innovative, technical woven material features three functionalities incorporated in just one layer: insulation, water-resistance, and breathability.
Thermolite® insulation material is very soft, with a very high insulation capacity. REV’IT! uses two specific kinds of Thermolite®: Thermolite® Plus and Thermolite® Active.
Thermolite® Plus is manufactured from polyester that is 80% recycled material. It is a high-quality, medium-loft, thermal lining fabric. This exclusive mix of fibres traps the air and retains body heat, keeping the motorcyclist warm. The material also stays soft and supple, without bulk, ensuring maximum comfort and freedom of movement for the motorcyclist.
The Exkin® Platinum® insulation layer is made of a reflective material which preserves radiant body heat and prevents heat loss from the cold, an ultimate technology to improve the insulation properties of the product.
Thinsulate® is a synthetic fibre used for thermal insulation in clothing. Thinsulate® fibres are about 15 micrometres in diameter, which is thinner than the polyester fibres normally used in insulation for clothing such as gloves or winter jackets. Thinsulate® insulation is soft and compressible.

Seamless 3D round-knit garments provide superior comfort and technical function for a wide range of athletic activities, including motorcycle riding. The 3D name comes from the texture and shape of the roundknit. Made on a circular knitting machine, seamless garments have superior elasticity for optimal shaping to the body. The virtual lack of seams results in optimal comfort, while also imparting important functionality: fewer seams make the garment less vulnerable for seam breaks, drop stitches, etc., and therefore longer lasting. Those seams that are absolutely necessary are made using flatlock technology, to eliminate bulk. The result is the ultimate in comfort and function.
This waterproof coating is applied to the inside of the garment’s inner lining, and the seams are taped to ensure that the garment is waterproof. The REV’IT! Hydratex® | G-liner coating is used in the construction of products that demand a basic level of all-weather protection.

VENTILATION
Being cool in motorcycle gear is not just about looks.
Riding in warm –or hot- circumstances can make it tempting for anyone to change their motorcycle gear for something more airy. In order to stay protected while getting the right amount of breeze we have equipped many of our products with a certain amount of ventilation. This enables a rider to either pick a fully ventilated suit –for hot climates-, or to pick a suit that provides the option of opening and closing the ventilation depending on the circumstances. With this in mind we have also created our VCS | aquadefence system; providing a cool breeze when it's opened up, but creating a fully waterproof outer shell when closed.

The VCS front zipper offers air flow to cool the upper body over the full length of the front zipper. The air flow can be regulated by opening or closing the zipper.
These panels are fully perforated, allowing air to go through over the entire surface of the panel.
The dual-comp protector consists of a 3D, pre-shaped honeycomb structure of TPU material, topped by an aluminum high-impact shield, for ultimate sliding. This lightweight hard part increases the level of protection significantly, without adding the considerable weight of traditional plastic hard parts. The dual comp protectors have been perforated to allow airflow to enter the gloves keeping your hands cool and comfortable.
The GORE™ LOCKOUT™ Closure technology has a self-lubricating, toothless construction that opens and closes easily and delivers 100% waterproof protection. This new innovation retains its waterproof quality even after thousands of opening and closing cycles. The metal slider smoothly interlocks the two double channeled polymer tracks, to create a visually distinctive flat-front finish that make the garments stand out immediately.
When opened the aquadefence system allows direct ventilation to the body. When the zipper or panel is closed, it presses onto the incorporated rain gutter, the jacket is then 100% wind- and waterproof. When the panel or zipper is closed the rain gutter will stop the water from entering via the ventilation holes, thereby keeping you dry and comfortable. (EU patent EP 2574249, US patent US 13/630.520)
Our VCS zippers are placed strategically to cool the body with air flow, which can be regulated by opening or closing the zipper. REV’IT! has now developed an extra wide WR zipper with an injected garage. This garage is an excellent cover for the zipper slider and puller, maximizing the waterproofing of the zipper as well as optimising air flow, by capturing wind and directing it into the zipper. The zipper itself can also be welded to the outer shell material, instead of sewn, for maximum waterproofing and a sophisticated look.
Removable panels for optimum ventilation. Ventilation is nice on warmer days, but not as desirable in cold weather. With removable ventilation-panels, you can decide for yourself: they can easily be removed to allow full ventilation of the jacket.
Ventilation and pocket combined, offering bigger ventilation surface. These pockets feature an extra strong mesh lining and can be used either as a pocket or as a vent. Ventilation pockets can be found on various REV’IT! products.
The REV’IT! ventilated speed hump has an air inlet at the top of the hump. The perforated foam inside this leather speed hump is designed to let air flow through the garment, spreading over the rider’s back for comfortable ventilation. Extra cooling of the area is especially beneficial now that riders are wearing back protectors more and more.
