    Fulmer jackets are surprisingly good for their price. They're usually somewhere around $100-200. I got a mesh one (live in the desert, mesh is a must here) on sale for $70 as my first jacket over three years ago. Comes with tonnes of pockets, thermal liner, decent reflection, and while the armour looked like foam, it was removable so dropping an extra hundred on some proper pads still left me under $200. Recently a friend got the women's cut on an updated model, which was identical except it had proper armour and the liner was waterproof.

Would LOVE if you made a full length gear review for women's jackets though. I'd love to hear about the best leather options out there. I get that this might be a bit more difficult as you can't really wear them yourself, but i'm sure a lot of people would appreciate it! Its so difficult to find resources for us gals bc everything is so male-centred- like you said, times are changing and there are more female riders than ever!

    Some of these look pretty nice, but I already own the discontinued Icon Sanctuary which I bought from you guys a couple of years ago on clearance. Got a great deal for such a wonderfully protective jacket. It is however a little on the warm side when temperatures start getting into the high 20's and above and so if I buy any second jackets, it would likely be some sort of mesh jacket to use when summer is at its peak.

      In a word, mesh. I like Olympia Motosports offerings. I'm long waisted, so I prefer a 3/4 jacket if possible, which is rare in mesh jackets. I am currently using Olympia Motosports Denali 2 jacket, and I like it a lot.

      I never pay more than $100 for jacket or pants. Great sales all the time. Icon, Fly and Rocky Mountain ATV Tusk brands. I may have to break that rule for some good boots, but my current Icon Raider boots were only $95 and are breathable, which is important in hot NM and AZ. I have noticed that if one company has it on sale (like Revzilla) they all will, but sometimes you have to move fast.

    2:39 thank you sir!!!! This sent me down a wonderful rabbit hole of learning these ratings and how to figure out what is what. Now that I am older and have a family and all, I have been looking into upgrading my leather to something that is more protective, but never really knew how to determine what is good and what isn't other than word of mouth or buying the most expensive thing and hoping, now I can search for a CE prEN 17092-2:2017 Class AAA certified leather jacket and know that I'm going to likely be getting the best protection and then make my best guess decision from there. Thanks dude, this is something I've been wanting to learn for a long time!

    I wore the Rev'it Trench on a two week motorcycle tour of the Himalayas last july. Overall it was great, we had some hot weather into 40 celcius which wasn't so great but it did a good job in a range of conditions. I didn't bother with the zip in thermal just layered up underneath. I had a few small low speed offs in the dirt/streams/gravel and had no damage on the jacket. Waterproof napoleon pocket for my passport (in a ziplock too) and had the Rev'it back protector in. You can also zip in the cooling vest where the thermal zips in and it has pockets for chest protection if you want to get gnarley . I commute to work with it too and it doesn't look very biker off the bike more like a technical gore tex jacket. When you consider the features and protection and compare it to something like Arcteryx it's a bargain. Comes with the Short Zip for connecting to the Jeans belt thing or a long zip for the more technical pants they sell.

    It's kind of weird to see that you have to wear a baggy fit XL Rev'IT! at your 6'3 because that's pretty much the average size of the Dutch guys that make that jacket. You would expect them to have more of a European tall cut.

    • @paulaus

      The Rev'it Trench is a touch looser than most of their stuff. I have the Worker Overshirt and it's tighter than the Trench although the trench has room for the lining.

    Hello Fnine
    Based on your reviews of riding jackets, I have been able to get allot of good information..I watched almost all your reviews. I have been riding 48 years.wearing leather and denim I saw the Firstgear Jaunt in your video and loved it. I couldn't find one in my price range. So I did some digging and ended up getting the Firstgear Kenya 3 season waterproof jacket.
    Thanks,
