If you're looking for an urban summer motorcycle jacket that doesn't look like 90-plus percent of every mesh motorcycle jacket ever made, look no further.
As a way to illustrate the tech built into the Tracer Air 2, compare it to its sibling, the Tracer 2.
Not only does the Tracer *Air 2 cost more, but it physically weighs more too - which is counter-intuitive in a jacket that you can literally see through if held up to the sunlight.
That's because it's not just punched full of holes, which would weaken any substrate shell material. Instead, the Tracer Air 2 is largely build from REVIT's proprietary "Powershell Mesh" -- which is is an open weave material with built-in stretch for a comfortable, supremely ventilated fit. The material manages to flow air like a sieve, but thanks to the heft of the material, and REVIT's assurances that it's street-worth, safey is still accounted for.
Save for a Cordura ripstop yoke on the back of the jacket, with a passive exhaust vent built-in, the rest of this jacket is entirely made up of this tech mesh material.
Compared to its predecessor, the original Tracer Air, this sequel jacket thankfully ditches the Velcro Logo patch on the shoulder. The next biggest headline is that it's now offered in a nice brown colorway — and both options come with a plain black mesh comfort liner, not the camo liner of the old one.
Besides that the changes are minor: more tapered pockets with an exposed snap instead of a hidden one, and the tonal 3M reflective piping has been moved from just below the yoke on the back, and it now runs down the back of the sleeve.
Like all REVIT jackets, the Airwave comes with a connection zipper to tie into the company's Safeway Belt.
*The SeeSoft RV-Type back protecter this jacket was designed to take is size specific, so make sure you order appropriately.
