REV’IT! Ladies Solar 2 Jacket Review intro

Adventure riders put a great deal of thought into their motorcycle jackets, but what do you wear after the ride? REV’IT’s Ladies Solar 2 Jacket offers a very compact, waterproof, cozy layer for those chilly evenings around the campfire.

You can keep this small-but-mighty jacket tucked away but handy for easy access in a backpack or pannier. After a day of riding, it feels great to shed your heavy protective gear in favor of a lightweight insulated shell that looks good enough to wear out to dinner but is still functional enough to keep the cold at bay.

The jacket’s cut is slightly loose, but flattering, and it doesn’t feel bulky. This makes it perfect for layering. When a warm afternoon jaunt cools down, the compact nature of this jacket means it fits well under a variety of riding attire without bunching in odd places.

Heading out on a chilly morning to explore some hot-blooded single-track? The Solar 2 fits surprisingly well over armor and a jersey to keep you toasty while you get into the groove; then it stuffs away small, into even mini or hip packs, unnoticed until the sun goes down.

Zippered pockets keep your motorcycle key safe as you transition from bike to beach to camp or just the local taco stand. Plus, the inner pockets keep your phone dry in the event of precipitation. The PrimaLoft Gold insulation means you can shove this jacket into the bottom of your pannier for days, shake it out, and never have to worry about the down innards becoming compacted and losing functionality.

With a price point to rival that of other premium outdoor jackets, it may not be on the top of your list of riding gear to purchase, but it will be one of the most versatile.
