I just bought a REV IT Air jacket from my Ducati Dealer.

Doesn't flow quite as much air as my old Joe Rocket Santa Fe Jacket, but it fits perfectly and feels like it will protect well.
Did you purchase the "air" or the "airflow" jacket. I'm considering ordering the "air" and  challenge pants. how is the sizing compared to joe rocket? I have a joe rocket phoenix 5.0 size xl that fits great.
  I have to order online because there no local dealers of rev it.

I have the Rev'It Air and Liteon, but no Joe Rocket to compare with. Rev'It sizes are quite small. I checked/rechecked Rev'It online size charts and ordered XXL which should be large enough, but it wasn't. Got the 3XL, they call it XYL, and it's perfect. My chest is 125cm, waist 105cm at the widest and I'm 6'4".
If you check the online size charts and take into consideration my experiences I hope you're able to figure it out.

I purchased a Joe Rocket Reactor mesh/leather jacket from Newenough.com last week and was able to put it to the test this week with the heat wave on the East coast.   I was amazed at how comfortable it was to ride in temperatures which were in the upper 90's (heat index in the 100's).  It's leather on the lower arm/elbow and shoulder areas, in addition to being outfitted with CE approved armor (back pad isn't CE rated).   The all black version looks really nice.  Overall, I'm really impressed with this jacket, especially considering that it was $179.00.
