great review. my question is this can i wear this in 25+celsius degree weather? im going to buy Revit Tracer Air 2 Motorcycle Shirt also but if i can wear bison 2 in 25+ weather, ill only buy this one.
I have the original Tracer shirt which doesn't get much wear as it's pretty impractical. The main issue is that it's not even water resistant - it positively leaks even the slightest amount of rain right through to the skin. So this jacket should be a much better bet with my Revit Memphis H20 jeans. Wish it had the plain colours though (that blue check looks straight off a granny's wheely basket) and those pockets are still too small for a phone or wallet. ☹
This seems like a downgrade from the old bison to me. No mention of it being a laminated membrane, the fit doesn't look as nice to me and the colours aren't as nice either. In every other way it seems pretty much unchanged.
I agree the blue variant is less than aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion, but the ochre colour is very sharp and is exactly what someone looking for a plaid shirt style would go for. That said, a monochrome option, like black, grey, camel, etc, would be good for those looking to have a more subdued aesthetic.
I've got the old bison and I love it! I wear it from April to October with a hoodie if it's a bit on chilly side. Personally I think the ochre looks amazing. Glad to the snaps instead of buttons too, sure it probably makes it less like a shirt and more like a light jacket but for city riding where it'll be on and off I reckon it'll be a worth while compromise.
@@dani3link I'm in northern England. I'd say down to 10 with a hoodie under it and up to about 25 with a t shirt. After that I go mesh but being from the north of England I'm not exactly great at dealing with heat though... 😂
Hi. Sadly there isn't a ladies version of this model but there is no reason you can't get this one in a size smaller for example! :) Alternatively I recommend looking here for the John Doe ladies riding shirt: www.urbanrider.co.uk/catalogsearch/result/?q=JOHN+DOE+XTM+WOMENS+MOTOSHIRT Hope this helps - Iza
How does this shirt do in the summer and heat compared to the Revit worker overshirt?
great review. my question is this can i wear this in 25+celsius degree weather? im going to buy Revit Tracer Air 2 Motorcycle Shirt also but if i can wear bison 2 in 25+ weather, ill only buy this one.
No. It will be hot and sweaty! No ventilation for direct airflow either. Just a mildly breathable laminated waterproof liner.
Nice shirt but how about this when riding in cold weather like 2 degrees celcius doing at 120km/hr?thanks

the first version is alot better added with that velcro patch on the arm. too bad it's discontinued. but the yellow one also caught my attention.

Hey Piggy! In what part of the world though? I'd like it for temperatures between 15 and 35ºC Celsius. What do you reckon?
