can we add a back protector because that would truly make this perfect, maybe just make the water bladder wider so you can choose between bladder and protection(maybe even fit both in there)👍
Enjoy my jacket. As you mention, it’s probably a 3 season jacket. My only complaint is that the arms are tight-put a thermal liner under the jacket, and you’re really tight.
That was the goal with bringing design in-house. The team really pushed to include Level 2 armor, YKK main zippers, laminated waterproof stretch fabric, 1200D reinforcements, etc. while keeping the price affordable. I will probably pick up the jacket and pants for my trip to Alaska this summer. -DrewZilla
This set looks like a killer deal for what it includes, only improvement I could think of would be a high viz colorway since it's a bit more of a touring set, but I don't think that would hold me back from purchasing a lighter color model after my pocketbook recovers from my recent helmet purchase. Thank you guys for the great review
The collar does have a snap back feature. Inside, there's a piece of Velcro to secure the flap when it's open (you can actually see it in the video when he pulls the tab to the side, haha). This design keeps the Velcro clean and gives the jacket a sleeker look when worn open. Overall, I really love this set!
The velcro shown at the collar is the velcro that connects to the other side when the jacket is closed. So one piece of velcro on each side of the collar. A snapback feature that we usually look for is a second set of velcro (or sometimes a physical snap) that hold the flap to the rider's left collar so it doesn't need to be secured, thus opening another area for airflow to come in. Just watched the video back again and yeah, no snapback feature just the normal velcro that closes the collar.
Amazing value for a possibly all-season jacket, as long as the durability supports the features. How viable would this jacket in white version be in a Texas summer with all vents open?
Not as good as a Mesh jacket obviously, but considering the vents are direct it will cool you down as good as a laminated WP jacket can that is for sure. If you have any other questions or concerns, please reach out to our Gear Geeks at cs@revzilla.com or 877.792.9455! Ride safe, - Pat
I removed the pads from my sedici jacket and am unsure which pads are for shoulder vs elbow. And also their direction. Would you be able to help or have a contact? Thank you. 🥺🙏. Here's to a full-hearted new 2021
Hi guys, are you thinking about doing a review regarding the DAINESE AVILA D-DRY GLOVES any time soon? What do you think of them compared to the Tempest short cuf? Keep the good work! :)
As of right now, it's unclear whether we'll make a video review of the Avila D-Dry Gloves. I like the Avilas for city commuting, since they're a bit lighter-weight. The Tempests offer a bit more protection for highway speeds. -DrewZilla *bit.ly/Dainese_WP_shortcuff
That depends on your riding and body tolerances. Mid-30's on the highway is going to feel like low 20's if not lower, so you would likely want a mid-layer or heated layer on underneath if thats the case. Small pops around town wouldn't be an issue with a mid-layer though. As for high heat, we've been wearing these in humid/hot climates w/o issue. As long as there is air flowing through them we've found them to be just fine compared to other WP laminated pieces. Ride safe.
What boots was he wearing with these pants? I'm assuming a full MX boot wouldn't fit under, but would the forma terra or adventure boots work with these?
We didn't make note of the boots, but I'll say that these pants were specifically designed to accommodate all the popular ADV boots: Forma, TCX, Sidi, Alpinestars, etc. -DrewZilla *bit.ly/Sedici_Garda_Pants
You have a keen eye! That is an employee-only shirt actually celebrating our 10 year anniversary a few years back and the redesign of the website from the older version. This one isn't for sale unfortunately, at least at the moment. - Pat
Added a magnetic clip from Amazon for the bladder hose. Fit perfectly inside the left zipper vent. Cost $11.00 for the hose clip. Bango!

If it delivers on everything it says it will it’s an amazing jacket! Level 2 protectors at this price point is extremely good as well :)

I found that the jacket was a little snug and if you intend to layer up for 3-4 season wear, I'd go up a size.

The pants are described as having 3 armor positions. Mine don't seem to have any adjustment though.
Will this jacket be comfortable in CA summer heat around 70-90 degrees heat cruising around 30-60 mph?

How cool of a temperature do these pants go to? Can it do mid 30’s? They look too warm for summer heat due to minimal venting

Is there a women's version?
What kind of shirt is Mr. McHugh wearing?? I've seen Lemmy wear that shirt too!
