Sizing Information
We find REVIT gloves run a bit on the snug side as compared to most US based brands. The fit is very similar to Alpinestars which also fit more snugly than other brands of gloves. The tendency to run small is not so noticeable that we’d advise you to buy one size larger, but if you are sometimes in between sizes, your best shot would be to choose larger. Hopefully you’ve had some experience with buying gloves and can choose based upon the fit of a previous pair. If you have no previous experience with glove sizing, go here for help.
Our Two Cents
The REVIT Kinetic glove is new for 2021. This is a lightweight summer glove, but one that goes further with protection than many other styles in this category.
I just reviewed the REVIT Massif glove, which looks a lot like this one but this glove offers more protection for street riding (where the Massif was more of an off-road style). The palm of this glove is leather rather than lighter duty materials such as synthetic suede, and it has a sturdy layer of memory foam material in the heel of the hand and on the side of the thumb to beef it up a bit. The back of the hand looks like just synthetic material, but under the surface is a knuckle armor unit and additional units over the back of the hand.
I think this glove will be useful in mild to hot weather. The gloves are completely flexible and can be packed away easily in a small compartment or a jacket pocket. The fabric over the back of the hand will flow air readily, much like mesh materials.
In comparing this glove to other lightweight summer gloves you find on the market, I think these go a good bit further with the protection capabilities. :: Paul, 04-12-21
REVIT says: The Kinetic Gloves from REV’IT! incorporate an innovative, lightweight knitting technology for unique feel, style and performance. Stretch fingers and back of hand keep the Kinetic Gloves comfortable, and a neoprene cuff with hook and loop closure keeps the glove secured. Flexible knuckle protection and Temperfoam shock absorbing inserts boost protection and comfort for the rider. Connect fingertips come standard so the Kinetic Gloves can stay on when operating touchscreens.
