The domain where this Domain GTX by REV’IT! best comes into its own, is the city. This GORE-TEX overcoat is clearly a trendy urban commuter. One that navigates you through the metropolis in a safe fashion to then be fashionable when you walk in the office.
The Domain GTX uses the same coatrack and comes from the same branch as the Avenue motorcycle jackets, all covering the same domain. Or manoeuvring similar tracks. The wear and tear-resistant exterior is laminated 2L-GORE TEX and even 3L-GORE TEX on the hood – which is detachable. Despite those layers, the Domain GTX is still relatively lightweight. Mind you, with the (albeit removable) thermal lining, the full package cannot be crammed into your briefcase just like that. It is quite substantial; as it should. You’ll want to keep the Domain GTX near in spring, fall and winter.
How about summer? A laminated GORE-TEX motorcycle jacket obviously has some breathability but once temperatures rise and skies are blue, there are other and better options.
You’ll regret that moment for a while. Beside being functional, the Domain GTX is also quite stylish. Motorcycle clothing can definitely be fashionable and even though British rockers tried to prove the opposite of the overcoat in the nineties; time caught up with them. This looks classic yet trendy. The overcoat look and the overcoat fit at the top of their game. The Domain GTX is therefore quite long which can take some getting used to for purists on motorcycles. If short and fast are your thing, you’ll probably won’t be as excited about that morning ride on a maxi-scooter.
This demonstrates that the Domain GTX feels most at home zipping across wide lanes between stoplights cruising to your destination. In order to cruise in safety, REV’IT! went for SEESMART™ protectors on the shoulders and elbows. These are the most flexible, light and the most ‘not present’ impact protectors you can find. CE-certified, yes, and combined with the wear-resistant exterior, delivering a solid and safe base, without it being too obvious that you’re on the go wearing a motorcycle jacket. You can fit in a SEESOFT™ back protector if you want to and the commuter that’s travelling from a little further away and wants more tangible protection measures, can easily upgrade at will.
The Domain GTX is a premium jacket that will effortlessly guide you through the city and just in case you’d want the versatile motorcycle trousers to accompany the overcoat: the REV’IT! Alpinus GTX is a matching and outstanding choice.
