Review Summary: The Klim Induction jacket is a lightweight, visible, and tough jacket that makes an excellent choice for hot...
We’d like to thank the RevZilla team for providing this REAX Apex Pro jacket at no-cost for the purpose of...
Being that I live in a very warm climate, I was eager to test any jacket that offered good ventilation as well as solid protection. And the added benefit of the Motonation Metralla being designed for a woman was an added bonus that doesn’t come along very often. I ride...
Introduction Back in Summer, 2018, I was introduced to Czech riding apparel maker, Trilobite. They were a new name to...
Introduction With the Summer of 2021 fast approaching (or already here depending on my publish date), I found myself looking...
The Rukka Airway jacket and AirVision pants combo is designed for hot-weather riding. But unlike most mesh motorcycle clothing, this gear is built to take all you can dish out — and then some. The Airway/AirVision outfit is more successful in many ways than the Rukka Armas outfit (review), which is designed for...
The Bull-it Carbon and Roadster jackets are an excellent blend of casual looks and tough protection. Neither jacket gives away...
Knox Urban Pro Ladies Shirt As the warmer weather was coming, I was looking for a lightweight jacket or shirt...
This is the third in our series of reviews featuring Alpinestars mesh motorcycle clothing. First up was the Alpinestars T-Stunt 2 mesh jacket, then the matching Alpinestars ACR Air-Flo mesh pants, and this review features the ACR Air-Flo mesh jacket. We also have two pairs of Alpinestars jeans in the review pipeline, the...

Scorpion Cargo Air Jacket: a Ventilated Summer & Hot Weather Jacket The ride review for this jacket will admittedly be...
Introduction to the Icon Field Armor Compression Shirt I purchased this piece of hot-weather riding gear to wear on those days when the temperatures hover above 90 degrees. I live in the San Francisco Bay area. We have incredible micro climates year-round. I can ride 10 minutes in either direction...
The Scorpion Vortex Air Jacket: Awesome Budget-Friendly Summer Gear To not put too fine a point on it, the summer...
I have long admired REV’IT!’s ability to combine a high degree of technical specification with modern style – clean, slim...
The Rukka AiRider jacket is new for 2014 and it has the same Cordura AFT mesh shell of the type used in the Rukka AirMan jacket (review). The AiRider is a shorter sportbike style jacket that forgoes the Gore-Tex removable liner and the Outlast phase-change technology of the AirMan but includes the...
Review Summary Comfortable, casual hoody for urban motorcycling and off-the-bike wear. This is not a robust, highly technical piece, but...
First, some background: REAX is a new riding apparel line recently launched by Comoto Holdings – that’s RevZilla and Cycle...
I’ll take a wild guess and say that something like 97% of motorcycling is done in fine weather. So one of the mysteries of motorcycling is why does it seem easier to dress for cold weather than warm? Most motorcycle clothing is heavy, bulky, windproof and water resistant. It seems...
I was hoping to get this review out of the way several weeks ago, back when the weather was at...
The Pilot Direct Air jacket is good-looking, nicely made and comes in a variety of color combinations. It’s a hybrid mesh/textile...
The Joe Rocket Phoenix mesh outfit is reasonably priced. The jacket fits well and it flows a lot of air. It is also an improvement over the original Joe Rocket Phoenix jacket. But the fit of the pants is a problem and they’re not as well ventilated. Bottom line: buy...
The Pilot Visto Hi-Viz Jacket is a near clone of the Pilot Direct Air jacket we reviewed in June 2014, but with...
A hot weather jacket that is a happy medium between keeping you cool and keeping you protected. Beating the heat....
The Rev’it Air jacket is new for 2008. It’s designed for hot weather riding and it offers sophisticated styling with high levels of air flow with Rev’it quality and a competitive price. The Rev’it Air jacket is new for 2008 and it’s the lightest weight hot weather jacket in the Rev’it...
The Joe Rocket Phoenix Ion Jacket is a variant of the long-running and ever-popular Joe Rocket Phoenix mesh jacket (review). Our...
have become very popular in the few years that they’ve been on the market, and with good reason. They’re a...
The Joe Rocket Phoenix 5.0 jacket is, as its name implies, the fifth generation of what was once a ground-breaking design. But time has moved on and the Phoenix jacket hasn’t really improved as much as I’d hoped and expected. It still flows a huge amount of air. And the...
Summer weather is just around the corner in this part of the world, meaning that it’s a good time to...
Can there ever be too many choices for warm weather clothing? I’m not sure if the “perfect” mesh combo exists...
Editor’s Note: this review came out in 2017 and is for an older version of the Klim Induction Jacket. For the new version, please see our Klim Induction Jacket Review [Updated for 2022]. The Klim Induction jacket was introduced in 2014 and has been recently updated. The design and execution...
Ixon is one of the few manufacturers who have addressed the need for children’s motorcycle clothing. Their children’s motorcycle clothing...
The Tourmaster Intake Air Series 2 is one of several Tourmaster jackets that have similar design features. It is available in...
The Icon Strongarm 13 is a very cool “custom” jacket. It has over-the-top staying but it’s actually very comfortable, includes vents and even armor! Don’t get scared guys — the Strongarm 13 really is a men’s jacket, but #13 was lucky for me. The jacket wasn’t supposed to be mine, but...
The Dainese Aspide jacket is new for 2012. It is a lighter-weight motorcycle jacket designed to provide good air flow...
The Roadgear Adaptive-Tech vest and jacket are soft, comfortable and stylish. They can be worn as liners for motorcycle jackets...
The Teiz Motorsports Sahara jacket is a comfortable, functional garment. It served me well throughout the entire 15 days of the western portion of the Trans America Trail ride. The fit — bespoke in this case — was great and if you don’t notice your gear when wearing it, it’s doing something...
The Rukka AirMan jacket is an update of the Rukka Airway jacket, reviewed exactly one year ago on webBikeWorld. The Airway was...
Like the Pilot Visto Air high-visibility jacket I reviewedrecently, the even simpler Pilot Slate Air jacket works as advertised. It is...
Potential for motorcycle riders not quite realized. Back in the old days, automobiles didn’t have seat belts or padded dashboards, much less “passive restraint systems” like airbags. Airbags were something you read about in a Popular Mechanics magazine “Cars of the Future” article. Why would anyone possibly need or want...
Comfortable jacket works surprisingly well in warm weather. The wild “Rasta” colors are also highly visible and the jacket is available...
