I have the Phantom GTX and Dirt glove in XL. The Monster runs smaller than either of these. I think the Monster will stretch, so, not a problem. I got the monster to replace my A-start Supermoto glove. The Mosters is much better made in every way over the A-star.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The new "T5 Pro" hip pads are nearly twice as thick as the origional D30 pads. I have both. The T5 Pro are still thinner than conventional CE pads. A great improvment over the older model!

The DIRT summer glove offers the perfect balance between protection and ventilation. Lightweight mesh and perforated leather parts allow air to flow freely along the hands, keeping you cool. The level of safety is exceptional for a mesh glove, thanks to high-quality leather, dual-comp palm slider, Albany cowhide hard-shell knuckle, and PU-injected finger knuckles. The DIRT is comfort and safety rolled into one glove. PROTECTION Outer shell Automan stretch, air stretch mesh, goatskin, Albany cowhide (PU coated) Visibility reflection Protection Albany cowhide hard-shell knuckle, PU injected finger knuckles, EVA foam, Dual-comp palm slider Lining tri-fleece liner ERGONOMIC Fit tour fit Adjustability adjustment tab Ventilation ventilation panels Features short cuff

The Dirt is my second pair of Revit gloves. I have the Phantom GTX too. Both in XL and I find the fit great on both. I have long fingers and did not have the fit issues other reviews have mentioned.
I have been wearing them on nice winter days in the 50*s without being too cold.
As other have said - Revit gloves are the best!

I have the Gerbins Jacket, Pants and Vest. I use to Vest the most. It is perfect for short commutes all winter and it does not tax the bikes electrical system like a full heated outfit would. Yea, my arms and legs get cold on the ride into work but you are not frezzing cold all over like you would be without the heated vest. For touring where you are riding all day I use the full Heated pants and jacket.
For commuting the Vest and heated grips are a great intro into the world of not frezzing any more!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Many reviews said the pants fit was big/baggy in the lower legs. I found the Large fits me great. I can even wear them over jenes for commuting. - I'm 190lbs, and wear 34x32 pants. First ride I tried running the jacket and pants off a single channel controler - the pants got too hot while my upper body was cold. Going to upgade to a dual channel controler.
Yes, I recommend this product.

With the outer shell on the jacket is very heavy. It's basicly 2 jackets you have on. The fit is execlent and you really don't notice all the weight. Also, it's a bit of work to zip on the outer shell. All in all, I like it a lot. Just as a mesh jacket I like it better than my A-star mesh. It has a better fit for my big shoulder over a European cut A-star.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I got the Latitude as an upgrade from the Klim Traverse. The Latitude a much more fitted cut and more roomy in the shoulders. I moved my d3o armor from the Traverse to the Latitude and it makes the jacket even lighter in weight. The jacket is missing the “nylon storm cuffs” shown on the prototype in Anthony’s video. The pit vents are easier to operate than on the Traverse due to the lack of a storm flap over the zipper on the Latitude. I have yet to try the zip together feature to mate the pants to the jacket. The pants waist it so tall it looks impossible operate the zipper with the pants on.
Over all I love the jacket for 3 season adventure riding on my KTM950. I do not see wearing it in the heat of the summer. It’s the jacket I was looking for last year when I bought the Traverse

An XL in these fit good in length but way too much excessive material in the palm area. And the bulk of the fingers was way too much. I wanted and all day Adventure glove for cold weather. These were just too bulky for all day wear. I bought the Rev'It Phantom GTX which fit me 100% better.

I got these to replace the Klim Traverse. I never liked the multicolor gray of the Traverse. The Latitude fit a little slimmer than the Traverse. Still true to size, just more effort to get on than the Traverse. Once on they fit me better than the Traverse, stay up better without synching the waist down. The Latitude pants have the “hand warmer” pocked that Anthony said would be deleted in the video for these pants. The vents have been moved more to the side of the pants than on the Traverse.

Overall rating
Very warm for such a thin glove.
PostedNovember 10, 2010
Fit is wide. I had to go XL to get the firger lenght correct which leaves some extra material in the witdth.
Amazingly warm and windproof for their bulk. Warmer than my bulky winter leather A-star street gloves. I commute in them on moderatly cold days.
Only real negative is the plam material is rather slick. Not a big deal on rubber motorcycle grips but picking up keys or anything slick can be a challange.
Pros Comfortable
Yes, I recommend this product.

Can the Body Armor easily be removed from the Klim Latitude coat and pants?
Yes, easiest if you turn them complete inside-out to remove the pads. I removed mine and relaced with D3o armor.
