Great glove

I normally wear a L glove and these fit me with a little room left in the tips of the fingers.
Great glove overall, great feel, and I concur with the other reviewers about the possibly getting hot during the summer.
Possible loose thread issue as I see that the thread on the tips of the fingers might be coming a bit loose. Will have to see how that pans out.
Only issue that came up was that the initial pair I received had a defect in the area around the webbing of the thumb and index finger. There was this raised bump that would apply pressure right on the bone. Called Revzilla about it, and they took it right back and sent me out a new one right away. Second set didnt have the defect and they are the ones I have with me now. Great customer service as usual.
Pros Comfortable
Cons possible wear issues with threading
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great casual biking jacket

I'm 5'11.5", average build, 190lbs and I wear there in a 54.
Great jacket for what it was made for which is more casual riding. Think cruisers, and touring probably. There might be some heat issues during the warmer months, but I can see that the fall and spring would be the perfect times for this jacket. The elk skin leather is noticeably softer than cowhide and allows the jacket to worn on or off the bike... basically, you dont look like a total tool when you're walking around ;)
No overall gripes, the only warning that I think people should keep in mind is that the exposed metal zips can scratch up the tank if you're riding a sport bike. Make sure to keep that in mind when tucking in.
As usual, great revzilla customer support :)
Pros Fashionable, Comfortable
Cons Exposed metal zips can scratch up tank if you're not careful, Can imagine it getting hot in warmer weather
Yes, I recommend this product.

For the light motorcycle or vintage guzzi or even the scooter rider, the retro-style CR jacket is an excellent choice. The matte finish of the jacket looks good on the bike and off, thanks to a light coating on the outside of the material. The textile CR's mesh lining is very comfortable, even over bare arms, making this a jacket you won't want to take off. PROTECTION FEATURES Outer shell PWRshell polycotton, Lorica Insulation detachable thermal bodywarmer Protection Knox CE protection, EVA foam ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit city fit, regular shape Adjustability adjustment tabs Features jeans loop, double front zipper Pockets slit pockets, inner pockets

Great race fit, only issue is non upgradeable back protector

I'm 5'11.5", average build, and about 190lbs and the 56 fit me perfectly. On a Rev'it Hawk jacket, I am a 54. As others have stated here, the product has a very nice fitted feeling to it, and the armor snugged in great when worn. Keep in mind when buying that this is a race fit jacket so there is a definite precurve when wearing it. However, I returned mine due to the fact that the back protector is not upgradable.
There is a temperfoam pad in the back, but there is no way of taking it out as it is sewn in. If you are dead set on this jacket, you can probably take it to a tailor to have the pocket cut open and velcro put in, but I didnt want to have to go to that length and I normally prefer have my back armor built into the jacket as opposed to wearing it as a separate piece
Exchanged it for a Rev'it Hawk jacket, not as fitted, a bit more casual, but that does allow you to easily upgrade the back armor.
Overall, a great jacket that has one weird oversight to it.
Pros Comfortable, Fashionable
Cons Cant upgrade back armor
Yes, I recommend this product.
