FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very hot weather?
The jacket includes laser-cut ventilation panels for airflow, and a detachable thermal liner. While it offers some cooling, it is a leather jacket and may be warm in extreme heat compared to dedicated mesh jackets. It is best suited for moderate to cool conditions, or multi-season riding.
What type of protection does the jacket offer?
The jacket comes standard with SeeFlex CE-level 2 protection at the shoulders and elbows. It is also prepared for optional SeeSoft chest and back protectors, which can be purchased separately.
Can I connect this jacket to my riding pants?
Yes, the jacket features a short connection zipper at the rear, designed to connect with compatible REV'IT! riding pants for added safety and to prevent the jacket from riding up.
How should I clean and maintain the leather?
Clean minor dirt with a damp cloth. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for more significant marks. Regularly apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and protected. Avoid machine washing.
What is the intended use for this jacket?
This jacket is designed for sport street riding, offering a blend of track-inspired performance, protection, and multi-season versatility for adult male riders.
Are the chest and back protectors included?
No, the SeeSoft chest and back protectors are optional upgrades and must be purchased separately. The jacket is pre-configured to accept them.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Adjust the waist straps for a better fit. If the jacket is still too restrictive, consider if a different model or size might be more suitable for your riding posture.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Lubricate the zipper with a wax-based product (like a graphite pencil tip or beeswax) if it remains stiff.
Thermal liner is difficult to install/remove
Ensure the liner's zippers are fully aligned with the jacket's corresponding zippers. Work slowly and deliberately. Check that no part of the liner's fabric is caught in the zipper.
Armor inserts feel loose
Verify that the armor is correctly seated within its dedicated pocket and that the pocket's closure (if any) is secured. Ensure you are using the correct size armor for the jacket.

Care:
- Cleaning: Leather requires specific care. Spot clean minor dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Conditioning: Regularly condition the leather using a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking. Apply conditioner sparingly and buff off any excess.
- Storage: Store the jacket on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the leather for extended periods.
