Rev'it Bike Clothing

Post by abglenn »

Can anyone advise where you can purchase Rev'it bike clothing over the internet? It seems to be well made and designed for 3-season use.

Thanks for the on-line store information. I've ordered from AS before. Do you wear Rev'it? Wondered about sizing. I think the clothes are made in the UK, which means if you wear a US-44R you need to order a US-46R. Right?

I've got a RevIt jacket. LOVE IT!

But... Their stuff is 'european sized' meaning, narrow thru the waist and hips: If you've got a bit of a gut, it'll be tight around the middle.

I wouldn't spend the money if I couldn't try it on. Too frustrating.

Have quite a few RevIt items and find them well made and well thought out. Also their customer service is very good.

I would talk with them about sizing. When I have spoken with them--this was when they had US offices, their recs for sizing were spot on.

On Advrider.com one of their customer service guys is there. Do a search on Rev'It and his name will turn up. You can write him with questions.

Hope this helps

I'm pondering their new "Infinity" 1-piece textile suit (like an Aerostich Roadcrafter).

What's the general consensus on their quality? I'm an all weather rider and I INSIST on waterproof clothing being ACTUALLY WATER TIGHT, not 5-minute shower resistant, but 10 hour MONSOON-Proof.

I can't agree more. Clothing is one of those things you need to try on, because they all fit differently, even for the same given size among different brands. I would only order a replacement item through the mail.

I went through this years ago with my boots. I mail ordered them in what was a 'normal' size for me, but they were european sizes and matched up differently. By the time and money spent sending things back to 'try' other sizes, the good deal was lost.

I like the Rev'IT stuff, and that will most likely be the next brand for me.
