I am checking their size chart, confused a little. I wear eu50 in dainese, eu50 in leather spidi and L in spidi summer jackets, M or 50 in all type of revits. according to RST chart; eu50 is size small and for 38-40 inch chest. (spidi size chart says L for same 50eu and chest 38-42) I normally wear 2 size smaller than you. this is the only thing I can trust but still have some hesitation. you wear at least half a size loose for my liking. can you wear also a size smaller in the reviews so watchers can see how much of difference it makes on you. I am sure many overseas buyers like me had some sizing issues before so I am speaking for all of them :) we need more information on sizing and fitment! cheers
Looks like the perfect jacket for my summer riding. Scored top marks on Motocap too. Do you happen to know if this Jacket has front pockets for chest armor? It doesn't seem like any of the RST jackets have them unfortunately.
You can compromise by wearing an airbag vest over the jacket, more info: (Motorcycle Airbags Exist - But No One Uses Them?) th-cam.com/video/N2jZryt607U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=k57XWjygk2whVuAr
I would buy one in an instant if only they had some colour markings on them. I decided a while ago that all my jackets need some sort of colour as I see too many all black riders blending into the background.
I do remember the arms on this jacket fitting a little tighter than there other models but do not remember it being a problem. This jacket is sold out and discontinued now. - Van
Beautiful this video and the jacket too! I have two jackets alpinestars XL 54 European size. Are RST jackets narrower or wider than alpinestars of the same size? Thank you
Is there going to be a leather/mesh hybrid pant? Or I saw the Evo4 leather pant, is there an even lighter mesh coming? (Stuck on a boat somewhere sure, just seeing if I should hold my breath for down the road.)
@@sportbiketrackgear How about another brand of pants for commuting that has high up as possible zip and not too terribly bulky. Wear a gunbelt, armor , etc. And issue I run into is if I try to zip off my existing tourmaster pants that go just above knee, work boots still like to kinda hang up and I end up having to get a seat and take boots on and off. Less than ideal for my work location.
You would need to remove the armor from the jacket, measure and compare to the D3O. My expectations are the pocket in the jacket would allow you to replace the armor if you would like to. - Van
I dont understand why Still none of these brands don’t create a WHITE leather perforated mesh jacket with sliders and all These will be the best yet no one does it
This looks superb. Good value as well. Good cut. Protective. I would imagine much more so than my Icon Contra mk1. We are about the same size, so what fits you will fit me. Size 44'' US. Do you ship to Thailand? I understand I would have to pay some tax here. I will check to see how much.
We ship to Thailand using USPS or DHL. DHL is much more reliable IMO. To get a quote please add the items you are interested in to the shopping cart along with your shipping details and the site will get you some quotes. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear Thanks. I am going to defer for now. heavy import duty to Thailand. I will wait until I am back where I have a condo: southwest Portugal and import one to there from elsewhere in the EU. GB is out now because we are not in the EU. Sorry for wasting your time.
Hey Brian, great video as always. Is there any chance you could see if the Astars Nucleon KR-1i (large) back protector fits in this jacket? It would be nice to save some cash and reuse my old back protector if I bought this jacket. How does the RST shoulder/elbow armor feel compared to the Astars Nucleon Flex armor? Thanks in advance.
The armor that comes in this jacket is comfortable, super close to the Nucleon flex. We tried a couple other inserts and found the Icon D3O back insert fit perfectly in this jacket. You may need to do a little trimming to the Nucleon Kr-1 to get it to fit. - Van
Odds are if you had this zipped to a pair of pants and were in the beginner group many orgs would allow that. IMO you should be in leather on the track. - Van
What are the dimensions of the back protector pocket please? Im 180cm/70kg and size guide says i should order S size so need to know if my back protector will fit in this one as well. Thanks for reply
@TheeGoldenSnake Well I ordered fit S, as was recommended by seller and manufacturer yet it is tight and a bit short on the body. Sleeves are fine but the body fit is tight. If i could i would take M size. Hoodie underneath would be unfomfortable. I usually wear something thin like a Tee or sweatshirt. As it is mesh+leather i only wear it in hot weather so hoodie would be contraproductive. I have a dainese veloster jacket size S/50 which fits much better and is a full year rounder. Yet in hot weather its like wearing a thermo sack so thats why i got this RST jacket. Hope I answered your questions right. If any clarification is needed ask me anytime.

@@sportbiketrackgear nah i can do 20+ pull ups 🥱 but size small in multiple rev'it, dainese, and alpinestars jackets had the perfect sleeve length so it cant be me

Nice jacket Brian. Great price and value. Something I could def use in Southern Arizona.
RST offers some of the best gear on the market. - Van
Looks like a great jacket for over my Tech-Air-5 👍
Exactly what I’m pairing it with
The TA5 would be a great addition to this jacket for sure. - Van

This one is only available in all black. - Van
I would like to how this would hold up if you had to slide on your back for a second or two
It is designed and tested to hold up in the event of a crash. Most textile jackets are good for one crash then require replacement. - Van
Nice review! Can I have a question? With this jacket, I need to order a size up if I want to put in an airbag vest for in&motion?
That will really depend on how it fits. If you are at the top of the size chart for a given size I would recommend ordering 1 size up. - Van
Thank you ❤️
Was the arm size like for someone with bigger arms. Seen someone say not for a gym enthusiast?
I do remember the arms on this jacket fitting a little tighter than there other models but do not remember it being a problem. This jacket is sold out and discontinued now. - Van
Thanks for the reply. What would you recommend between this jacket and the RST S1 mesh leather jacket?
That’s fucking brilliant
RST makes some great gear. - Van
Beautiful this video and the jacket too!
I have two jackets alpinestars XL 54 European size. Are RST jackets narrower or wider than alpinestars of the same size? Thank you
I feel like the RST jackets run pretty consistent with the Alpinestars stuff. If anything the RST may be just a touch larger. - Van
why can't i find a size chart?
We have the size chart on our site. Here is a link: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/rst-tractech-evo-4-mesh-leather-jacket/
Is there going to be a leather/mesh hybrid pant? Or I saw the Evo4 leather pant, is there an even lighter mesh coming? (Stuck on a boat somewhere sure, just seeing if I should hold my breath for down the road.)
There will not be a leather/mesh pant. If you want a two piece with this jacket the EVO leather pants are the way to go IMO. - Van

Hey, would D30 LP2 level 2 shoulder/ elbow armour work with this jacket?
You would need to remove the armor from the jacket, measure and compare to the D3O. My expectations are the pocket in the jacket would allow you to replace the armor if you would like to. - Van
I’m 6ft, 180 pounds and 33” waist, which size would you recommend?
I would put you in a size large in this jacket. - Van
I dont understand why
Still none of these brands don’t create a

Black is the best selling color and it does not show dirt like white. - Van

I wonder if this jacket is allowed at track days as long as you run the other pants?
You need to check with your track day org but most will let you run something like this in novice as long as it zips to the pants. - Van
Is there a pant version with this leather mesh material?
No there is not a pair of matching pants. If you want to two piece with this jacket the RST leather pants are the best option. - Van

The connection zip will work with the leather RST pants. - Van
Forgetting about us Hawaii folks again... It's hot here too! 😁. One question, is this jacket CE certified? If so, what level?
