The Vancouver is a complete technical ADV / Touring suit for around $500 for both jacket and pants. It features...
I admit I was intrigued when I saw this jacket described as a four-season garment. As a year-round commuter, I’ve been wearing three-season jackets for years. In the colder months (10-40F), I plug in an electric jacket liner and gloves for the winter commute. In the summer, I’d rather shed...

The goal: a winter motorcycle riding outfit without the bulk. We’ve done this before — sort of. Long-time webBikeWorld readers may recall our 2009review of the Firstgear Teton jacket. That review had a similar objective: a lighter-weight, short jacket with matching pants for winter. This review isn’t necessarily an update on...

At its $144.00 list and $139.00 street price, the AGV Sport Torino jacket is about the least expensive 3/4-length touring jacket available today. It checks all the boxes with, of course, a few compromises. AGV Sport lists the Torino jacket as “entry level”, a label which means it will unfortunately be immediately...

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 rather, a casual jacket that is very easy to live with, and that offers reasonable protection for short, local rides. It is also, it must be said, pretty cool-looking. A...

Throwback! The early 60s meets mid-80s or something like that. Belstaff meets Barbour meets M65 Field jacket. The MH1000 jacket from ICON 1000 is the definition of Vintage-inspired style paired with modern touches. Cordura denim lends itself to the rugged look, with black leather accents on the shoulders and arms...

The Milwaukee M12 Heated Jacket is a good looking, high quality jacket. It uses a standard Milwaukee M12 (12 Volt) battery module to provide even warmth to the upper chest and back. The jacket may or may not work as a liner for motorcycle use but it’s interesting nonetheless. Milwaukee...
