Good review from someone who obviously rides a motorcycle. I like the design and I appreciate the layering system and the fact that the waterproof jacket has a snap in thermal liner. I recently upgraded from a 1990s Joe Rocket jacket and a cheap Amazon mesh jacket for summer riding to a Klim Marrakesh jacket with their Zephyr windbreaker layer underneath as needed. I have a Mountain Hardware pile jacket that I use as a thermal layer but the Zephyr works so well that I'll probably buy the Klim Induction pile jacket to complete the all-Klim layering system. It's more expensive than the Revit Arbor H2O jacket but I now see what the Klim fanboys are gushing about. The fit and function seem ideal and the attention to detail and materials are top notch. An advantage of the Klim layering system is the various components are layered but aren't zip-in or snap-in components so they work as stand alone garments. Even the motorcycle jacket can be worn without looking too moto dorky because it mostly looks like a regular jacket.
Wish you would show jackets without the harsh white background, you cannot make out the details on black jackets it's just a black blob, they always look totally different in the studio to the outside shots with true colour representation.
wondering which would be the best option between Revit Arbor (3L Hydratex - ?? mm) vs Richa Universal (Aquashell 2L - 15.000 - 20.000 mm)...anyone could give a hint here? Thanks!
It seems that scooter riders are generally ignored when it comes to riding gear. This jacket does not have that ADV or 'retro' look, and seems ideal for scooter riders.

Thank you for sharing!
Really helpful review for a Londoner new rider! What is the white Arai helmet model? Looks like the perfect match for my caballero explorer

Looks practical. 330 GBP is a very good price... if the membrane lasts.
