of REV’IT! motorcycle clothing, and with good reason. In our opinion, REV’IT! makes some of the best quality, most skillfully designed motorcycle clothing on the planet.

Much has been written on this and many other sites about “The Quest for the Holy…..” err, sorry…. the “Perfect Jacket” — the one that does everything well, all the time. While we’d hate to pre-empt anything that Monty Python may come up with on this subject, we may have an...

The onset of winter has rekindled my interest in 3/4 length motorcycle jackets. Besides their good looks, they provide the right amount of coverage for cool weather. And when they’re designed correctly, a garment of this length is probably about as close as one can get to that mythical “all...
I’ll admit it: I’m a Belstaff fan and have been for a number of years. Belstaff was the “It” brand back...

Lightweight jacket with chameleon styling works with anything from cruisers to Adventure Tourers. Includes six zippered vents, nice array of armor and a comfy but stylish fit. I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical when British Motorcycle Gear suggested the Zodiac jacket as a warm weather alternative to mesh. After all, mesh jackets...
It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of the more mature Firstgear Kilimanjaro or Denali jackets. But the Firstgear...

Summary: Extremely well designed and executed with style for a women’s fit. Very good attention to detail and absolutely waterproof and highly windproof. Lack of venting is not a shortfall as the outer shell breathes well — the Gore-Tex layer does its job in superb fashion. Appreciating the shortfalls in...

The Tourmaster Transition Series 2 is an excellent all-around, medium-weight 3/4-length jacket. It will work in the majority of riding...
Who’s wearing 3/4-length jackets? Anyone?? We’ve had several very nice examples, all in pristine condition, up for grabs in the webBikeWorld garage sale, but no takers. I can’t remember the last time we received an email about a 3/4-length jacket. And I no longer see many 3/4-length jackets on the street. All of which leads...
The Tourmaster Epic is an excellent choice for an inexpensive, all-weather, all-season 3/4-length jacket. The Tourmaster “Epic” jacket is the...
Comfortable 3+ season jacket isn’t quite 100% waterproof in heavy rain, but it has a modest price, so the value...
Could this be the Bargain of the Year for 2009? The Fieldsheer Aqua Tour is comfortable and water resistant. It also comes in an extended size range including tall lengths. And last but not least, it looks great and it’s priced to sell! It’s that time again! Cool weather in the...

The Bahiro jacket from German manufacturer Polo is a real all-rounder. It’s warm and waterproof for winter and vented for summer. It’s suitable for touring or commuting, and not bad-looking either. A discussion of warm, waterproof winter wear on my bike club’s mailing-list indicates the changing season as reliably as...
Classic styling, excellent construction, unique D-Dry liner and probably the best venting of any non-mesh 3/4-length jacket I’ve tried makes...

The British Motorcycle Gear (BMG) Adventure jacket is a lightweight shell optimized for off-road outback adventures.
