I'm usually on the smaller side of large in gloves, but ordered a size up per other reviewers recommendations. The XL fingers were just too long for me, particularly the thumb. Exchanged them for a Large and the fit is spot on. These gloves look great and were comfortable to ride in on day one (and I expect them to break in a bit). Quality construction, and great protection to boot! If I have one complaint it would be that they don't seem to flow as well as my old mesh gloves - but I guess that's to be expected. All in all, I'm pretty sure that this is the best glove in it's class and I'm happy with the purchase. I pair these with my Rev'It Ignition leather jacket and it matches perfectly.
Great service from Revzilla as usual!

Alpinestars Matrix Kevlar Jacket Designed to take on the city streets in style, Alpinestars Matrix Kevlar Jacket incorporates CE certified protectors and Kevlar reinforcements in a design that reveals a streetwise attitude. Constructed from Cotton based fabric with a double PU coating that combines a soft feel with weather resistance and durability. Inner Kevlar elbow and shoulder reinforcements for abrasion resistance in key impact areas. Adjustable CE certified Bio Armor protectors in the elbows and shoulders are extremely lightweight and offer exceptional impact protection. The protectors can also be removed for casual use. Convenient internal Napoleon pocket with zipper Please Note The Matrix Kevlar Jacket does not have a back protector pocket.
 

How much air does this flow?

Love the style, but am concerned that the Matrix Kevlar won't flow enough air in the Baltimore summer heat. Any thoughts? Also, can you confirm that this does have a pocket for back protection?

So I stopped in to check out the Revzilla showroom and discovered that this jacket does not have a pocket for a back protector (contrary to Anthony's video and the reviewers comments). Maybe there was a line change in design? Just thought I'd let everyone know!

BTW great showroom and great service. Check it out if you get the chance!
