FAQs
What type of riding is this jacket best suited for?
The Revit Control Leather Jacket is ideal for sport street riding, commuting, and spirited riding on twisty roads. Its design emphasizes protection and a sporty fit.
Is the thermal liner waterproof?
The thermal liner is designed for warmth and is not waterproof. For rain protection, a separate waterproof outer layer or rain suit is recommended.
Can I add a back protector to this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is prepared for SeeSoft back protector inserts (Type RV or Type 03, sold separately). Check the product specifications for the exact type recommended.
How do I clean the leather exterior?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid washing the jacket with water or using harsh detergents. Always condition the leather after cleaning.
What is the difference between SeeFlex and SeeSoft armor?
SeeFlex armor, found in the shoulders and elbows, is CE-Level 2 certified and offers high impact protection with flexibility. SeeSoft protectors (for back and chest) are insertable upgrades, also meeting CE standards, providing additional impact absorption.
Is this jacket suitable for very hot weather?
While the laser-cut perforations offer ventilation, it is a leather jacket. For extreme heat, it may become warm. Removing the thermal liner helps, but it is best suited for mild to warm conditions. Vented textile jackets might be preferable for very hot climates.
What sizes are available?
This jacket is available in various UK waist sizes for men, including UK 48 (as specified), UK 46, UK 44, UK 42, and UK 40.
Troubleshooting
Armor feels stiff or misaligned
Wear the jacket for a few hours to allow the armor to conform to your body. Ensure the armor is correctly seated in its pocket and the jacket is zipped up properly.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Use a graphite pencil or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly. If the zipper is damaged, it may require professional repair.
Perforations are not providing enough ventilation
Ensure the internal pockets for armor are not obstructing airflow. On warmer days, consider removing the thermal liner for maximum ventilation. Riding speed also significantly impacts airflow.
Leather feels dry or stiff after cleaning
Apply a good quality leather conditioner to the jacket and allow it to absorb. This will restore moisture and flexibility to the leather.
