REV'IT! Pacific H2O Rain Suit In developing the PACIFIC H20 rain suit, one of the main goals was to make it easy to put on in just a few seconds about the time it takes you to get soaked during a heavy shower. Mission accomplished. The solution lies not only in the long, diagonal front closure, but especially in the newly developed, non-stick, PVC-free coating on the inside of the Power Nylon outer shell. The result is a 100 waterproof, breathable, and very practical all-weather companion that will meet the demands of any rider. Convenient features include a storage pocket on the upper leg. For safety, reflection panels on the shoulders and lower legs ensure great visibility. If you need to stand out in traffic even more, the PACIFIC H2O comes in a high-visibility neon yellow option. PROTECTION FEATURES Outer shell PVC-free PWROxford with PU coating, PVC-free PWROxford EN471 with PU coating (in Neon Yellow color only) Waterproofing 100 waterproof Composition 100 polyester (100 polyurethane coating) Visibility reflection at shoulders and legs, reflective logo at chest and back ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit tour fit, regular Adjustability adjustment tabs at upper arm, cuffs and ankles Features PVC-free XL front zipper Elastic at waistline Includes transport bag Stash pocket on left leg EN343 certified

Easily packed and unpacked. Very comfortable. Maybe my feet are bigger than most, but I had to remove my boots to put it on. I was told I looked "hot" in it before I got in the building at work. Unfortunately it was a guy that said it.

Rode in coldest temperature so far. Completely comfortable. I've worn it from 55 to 34 degrees and it feels the same. Haven't had the opportunity to try it in a steady rain yet. (not complaining)
Yes, I recommend this product.

Can I wear my padded jacket either under or over this suit?

I have a firstgear riding jacket with shoulder, elbow, and back pads. I would like to be able to wear it with the rain suit. I wear a large according to your chart. Can I wear my jacket over the suit, or should I get a X-large so the suit goes over the jacket? I also have long leggs for my height and weight. (35" inseam) Will I need the X-large for longer legg length. Thank you.

What size should I get?

I am 5'7", weigh 175, 34" waist and a 42" chest. I will have a large jacket on underneath and jeans. I wear a large in regular T-shirts and clothes. I was thinking I should also get this in a large. What do you think and if it is the wrong size can I exchange it?
I think you'll need an XL.

Can the leg material contact hot pipes without compromising the suit integrity?

Lots of rain suits are great, but the leg will disintegrate when it touches a hot pipe. Just want to know what I would be getting.
The only waterproof material that exhaust pipes won't melt that I know of is Teflon. I've never seen a Teflon rain suit.

Can the H20 rain suit be put on over boots?

You mention the long front zipper, but there is no mention of leg zippers. I have size 12 Sidi Adventure Rain boots, so they are pretty bulky.

Thanks!
The legs are "bell bottoms" if your old enough to know what I'm talking about. The have three horizontal strips of Velcro a couple of inches apart starting below the knee, and one long vertical strip down the front seam so it folds over and attaches. It works well, much to my surprise, but I had to take my boots off when putting it on for fear of tearing it. My suit is an XL, and I wear a size nine.

3 in 1: Breathability, size & carry bag

Hi,

I was wondering if this rainsuit is very breathable and if it comes with a bag to store it in? Also I wear a size 56 Dainese jacket, would I be save to assume the sizes are designed to go over gear so an XL should be sufficient?

I can't seem to find any reviews for this product so if anyone has any input on the effectiveness of this rain suit that would be much appreciated as well.

Thanks
It comes with a draw string bag that is about the size of a half gallon milk carton. It has plenty of airflow. The first time I wore it, I dressed very light expecting the suit to be raincoat hot. I was cold. I wear a large mesh jacket that couldn't be a bit smaller and fit, and my XL Rain suit fits very well.

I wear a size 54 Revit jacket and my leg inseam measures 33.5 inches. Would I need an XL in this rainsuit?

Yes. I have a 35 inch inseam and the XL is the perfect length.

I'm interested in a REV'IT! Pacific H2O Rain Suit. I want it to fit over a L mesh jacket. I'm 6 ft tall. What size do you recommend?

I'm 6'1 and 185 pounds. The XL is a perfect fit with my jacket.
