REV'IT Rainwear

Why motorcycle rain gear?

The usefulness of rain gear cannot be underestimated! Not all motorcycle gear is designed to withstand a large amount of rain. There are certainly certain aspects that need to be taken into account. Such as the difference between laminated motorcycle clothing and motorcycle clothing with a waterproof membrane.

Difference between a laminated motorcycle jacket and a jacket with a waterproof membrane

If you have a laminated motorcycle jacket, the water is repelled from the jacket, as it were. So ideal! A motorcycle jacket that only contains a waterproof membrane will ensure that the water does not seep through to your normal underwear, but it does not repel the water! The outer layer will absorb almost all the water, making the jacket extremely heavy and difficult to dry afterward.

There is also a limit to the amount of water that the outer layer can absorb. Once the outer layer has absorbed the maximum amount of water, there will be an increasing chance that the rest of the water will end up on the pants or even, if it rains really hard, in your shoes.

Rain gear on the motorcycle?

So you don't have the luxury of a laminated motorcycle jacket? Then it is wise to look for a suitable rain suit! The REV'IT brand offers various options for this. REV'IT Rainwear can be worn over almost all motorcycle suits!
