I use one of these. Just need to makes sure it fits underneath your top jacket and the top jackets fits.

i have the revit mesh jacket but am still concerned with the way i look so i bought the black one, which is obviously the complete opposite of what you want it to do. ahh well! as long as you're constantly moving it works great though.

I've got a Revit Eclipse, and it's outstanding for airflow. For me it's good until the absolute hottest summer days.

I have one of these. Revit Offtrack.

Great airflow in hot days.
The neon zipper on the forearms open for more airflow. As well as the black zipper on the chest.

You are welcome to try it out if you want. I'm in Milton. It's my back up jacket as I use a different one as my main jacket.

Thanks for the offer. Rev’it was my second choice but I didn’t like the collar snap. The Scorpion arrived today, fits great and should do what I need it to. Anything under 25c I’ll just wear my good jacket that has all level 3 armour.

Lucas jacket by VQuattro. This is a European mesh jacket. French sizing says it's a XXXL, but it fits well, like a typical North American XL. It has been worn only a handful of times and is in almost new condition. Shoulder and elbow armour are...

Great, but why do you think it’s class leading? It has lowly 500D on abrasion areas (lowest I’ve seen actually) and armour is still just level 1. There’s plenty of cheaper mesh options with much better armour and better material used in the abrasion areas. I’m not buying into the “our Karbonite 500D is better than others 750D materials etc” marketing if that’s what they claim.

Certainly some marketing hype, but it really feels like a real motorcycle jacket and not like a mosquito net like many of the lower priced jackets.

Good quality zippers and excellent build quality and that mesh is certainly more substantial than most other mesh jackets.
