Rev'It Defender Gore-Tex Motorcycle Jacket

The Rev'It Defender GTX Motorcycle Jacket is packed with features. Make it safer. Make it lighter. Make it stronger. The fifth generation of adventure jackets since the groundbreaking original Cayenne jacket, The Defender GTX sets a new standard in apparel for the adventure and serious touring rider. Every stitch, reinforced. Fabrics which are both lighter, and stronger. A new DWR coating prevents water from soaking the outer layer, while the removable GORE-TEX Performance Shell removable membrane insures the highest level of waterproofing and breathability, guaranteed. Superfabric ceramic panels and SAS-TEC armor protect, while huge vents, large pockets, glove friendly pull-tabs, and a great Exkin Air thermal liner complete the package. Every aspect of the Defender GTX was designed for easier use, and more abuse than the competition.

PROTECTION FEATURES:

PROTECTION

• Fully perforated EVA foam at back - EVA is one of the materials popularly known as 'expanded rubber' or 'foam rubber'. EVA is used as a shock absorber in many REV'IT! products.
• SuperFabric panel at elbows - SuperFabric technology is an advanced process that transforms ordinary fabrics into unique, highly protective materials. Multiple protective shields are applied close to each other within the fabric, but remain separate to allow maximum flexibility. These micro guard-plates provide an additional layer of protection, without adding weight, and help prevent abrasion to underlying fabrics. SuperFabric is five times more abrasion-resistant than leather, with just half the weight.
• Prepared for SaS Tec CE back protector
• SaS Tec CE protection at shoulders and elbows - SaS Tec armour offers the best possible protection during a dynamic impact. The armour is made of a new polyurethane foam material, without a hard shell or edges, which surpasses the required CE-values by 50%. The closed air cells function by means of progressive absorption: with a slowly occurring stressor, the material remains soft and flexible, whereas sudden impact will cause the protector's air cells to respond quickly with increased resilience, creating a protective shield where the rider needs it most.
• Prepared for Seesoft CE-level 2 back protector insert - Type ST - The back protector pocket in this REV'IT! garment is tailor-made to accommodate the Seesoft CE-level 2 back protector insert Type ST - an easy upgrade to maximize safety.

INSULATION

• Detachable Exkin Air thermal liner - The Exkin Air insulation layer is an extremely lightweight, soft and warm, multi-layer structure that adds very little thickness to a jacket, pair of pants, or winter gloves. The optimum choice to keep your body warm, this padding is thin and perfectly soft, but still extremely warm. The CLO index (warmth insulation index) of Exkin Air is among the highest on the market. With maximum insulation performance and virtually zero bulk, this is one of the top insulation materials available.

OUTER SHELL

• Cordura 500D ribstop with Teflon coating - Durability and great abrasion-resistance are the defining characteristics of Cordura, thanks to its special ribstop weaving. Thick reinforcement threads are interwoven at regular intervals into the fabric, in a crosshatch pattern known as ribstop. This makes Cordura three times more tear-and abrasion-resistant than standard nylon. Its 201 degrees melting point allows it to withstand high temperatures. Clothing constructed from Cordura provides years of protection and comfort, while the water- and dirt-repellant Teflon coating makes it difficult for dirt to affix to or penetrate any material. This helps to keep your gear clean.
• Cordura 1000D ribstop with Teflon coating - 1000D provides the greatest tear-resistance. Its 210 degrees melting point allows it to withstand high temperatures. Clothing constructed from Cordura provides years of protection and comfort, while the water- and dirt-repellant Teflon coating makes it difficult for dirt to affix to or penetrate any material. This helps to keep your gear clean.
• Neoprene -Neoprene is a synthetic rubber useful for protective gear. It is abrasion-resistant, chemical-resistant, waterproof, somewhat stretchable, and buoyant.
• PWR Shell 750D with Teflon coating- This material is REV'IT!'s take on Cordura. Consisting of 100% high-performance Polyamide yarns, PWR Shell takes the best properties of Cordura - high melting point, tremendous tear- and abrasion-resistance, and excellent durability - and puts the unique REV'IT! design stamp on it. PWR Shell provides high-performance protection for every rider. The water- and dirt-repellant Teflon coating makes it difficult for dirt to affix to or penetrate any material. This helps to keep your gear clean.
• SuperFabric - SuperFabric technology is an advanced process that transforms ordinary fabrics into unique, highly protective materials. Multiple protective shields are applied close to each other within the fabric, but remain separate to allow maximum flexibility. These micro guard-plates provide an additional layer of protection, without adding weight, and help prevent abrasion to underlying fabrics. SuperFabric is five times more abrasion-resistant than leather, with just half the weight.

VISIBILITY

• Laminated reflection at chest and back - Reflection panels ensure excellent visibility at all angles, allowing the wearer to be seen from all directions. To offer a more sophisticated look, the reflection panels are welded to the fabric. This welding process also eliminates stitching seams, making the garments safer.

WATERPROOFING & BREATHABILITY

• Detachable GORE-TEX - GORE-TEX Performance Shells are designed to provide breathable comfort and durably waterproof and windproof protection for the touring biker. In the LTD (Liner-to-Drop) construction, the membrane can be easily removed from the jacket or trousers. The inner side of the 3-Layer Liner construction uses a knit textile that offers superior comfort, aesthetics, and durability against abrasion. This layer is bonded to a specific GORE-TEX membrane and a third outer-shell layer. This 3-Layer Liner construction is suspended under the outer shell material of the garment, with no further internal lining required. The result is a detachable lining construction with reduced weight and bulk. It offers touring riders an attractive garment design for any weather condition: wear the membrane inside the garment when cold weather demands it, or carry it in the storage pocket when you need maximum ventilation.

ERGONOMIC FEATURES:

FIT

• Tour Fit Regular

ADJUSTABILITY

• Drawcord at hips
• Adjustment tabs at under arms
• Adjustment straps at waist and upper arms
• UTA tab at cuffs - Ultra thin adjustment tab at cuff or leg. Thanks to laminating technology, the material of this UTA tab is extra thin. This allows you to comfortably wear the sleeve of your jacket under the cuff of a glove, as many riders prefer to do. This technology can be found in most garments in the collection, and also as cuff tabs on the legs of textile trousers.

VENTILATION

• VCS panels at the chest
• VCS zippers at back, chest and under arms - The VCS zippers are all located in strategic positions, where they offer excellent air flow to cool the body. The air flow can be regulated by opening or closing the zipper.

FEATURES

• Collar hook - The collar hook and loop allow you to draw back the front side of the collar, allowing air flow to cool the neck during warmer periods of the year without the annoying and distracting flapping of a loose collar.
• Long and double short connection zipper - This jacket has a long connection zipper and double short connection zipper. Not only can it be paired with any pair of pants in the REV'IT! line, but its second, short connection zipper on the membrane ensures that the membrane stays in place.
• Coolmax mesh lining - This mesh lining is made from Coolmax, a high-tech fabric specifically engineered to keep users dry and comfortable. Coolmax mesh is made from polyester fibers with an increased surface area. These special multi-channel fibers form a transport system that moves perspiration away from the skin to the outer layer of the fabric, where it can evaporate quickly, allowing the wearer to feel cooler and more comfortable.

POCKETS

• Slit pockets
• Inner pockets
• Waterproof stash pockets
• Membrane storage pocket - This pocket gives you the opportunity to store the membrane in a safe way and keeps the membrane within reach to allow you to attach it as soon as you need it.
