REV'IT! Airwave 3 Women's Pants (40 (Short) and 36)

Probably good for someone, just not me

“I returned these for a few reasons. I am 5'2 with a 29" inseam, and have big hips/butt and a small waist, buying moto pants is impossible. These were too tight in the thighs, but had a few inches gap in the waist; sizing up to resolve the thigh fit would just make them unwearable around my waist. Knee armor was still too low even after adjusted to highest option. Length was good (yay for Revit actually making 'short' length!). Appreciate the light color, black is too hot in summer. Way too loud 'swishy' sound when walking. Hated the slide snap on the waistband. Can't speak to airflow, since I ”

Fit recommendation within...

“Well made and the cut is good - form fitting but not bulky. Bought these for my GF; 5’6” 28” waist, muscular legs. Ordered the 34, 36 short, and 38 short. The 38 short fit her perfectly, both in width and length. Waist band has straps to tighten fit if needed. Knee pads low when standing but sit perfectly when seated. Sizing seems smaller than chart indicates. Hope this helps.”

I think I'd like them if I could get them to fit?

“I'm 5'2", 125 lbs, average to slightly muscular build. I've been buying Rev'it products since I started riding, and have always been very impressed with the quality and fitment. The Airwave 3 jacket in a size 38 actually fits me perfectly. I bought the Airwave 2 pants in size 38 and basically swam into them. I have a 28-29" waist, and the waist on those pants was at least a 34. I regturned them and bought the Airwave 3 pants in size 36. I don't know what the measurement people at Rev'it are smoking, but the inseam on those pants is NOT a 28. It's probably closer to 31 or 32". The knee ”

Made 4" smaller than advertised around waist line

“The 36 short actually measured 32" so there is a 4" difference smaller in size than ordered , returned and selected a 42 hopefully that will fit good actual waist measurement is 361/2 . When we get the new one I'll measure it and do a follow-up review on actual fit.. and comfort”

Is short really short?

“I am 5'2" and only buy riding pants that come in short. Which is limiting, however Revit makes a few. I like that the Airwave 3 comes in a silver, for summer, I don't like black. Fit- these run a full size larger or looser than the Factor 4 pants by Revit. I had to tighten the waist but they are comfortable and not too baggy. They are too long, knees are low on me. Pockets are easy to get into. Airflow is good and I stay pretty cool.”

Great pants, finally

“I am 5'3" and 106 lbs, 29-30" inseam (long legs, short torso), wear size 4 in regular pants. I ordered the 34 in black and 36 in silver. I kept the 36 silver. Love the color, fit, and knee armor is perfect when sitting on the bike. Just long enough so there's a small gap in back when I wear my Alpinstar Stella Air short boots. Plenty wide enough to go over my taller boots. 34 was a bit snug in the hips and too short. Be sure to sit on your bike when deciding on size! No additional liner, but I have non-mesh pants with a thermal liner, so not an issue for me. I'll be using these for summer ridi”

“I love almost everything about this pant except.......the regular was too long and the short was almost too short. I bought the short and will live with it. I wish it had belt loops. I like the slimmer legs and the fit and finish was wonderful. Thanks, Revit.”

Very breathable

“I was going back and forth between ordering the 38 short or the 40 short and went with the 38. It was the right call for me but sizing up might be a good idea for most. They are a little snug but not uncomfortable but we just went through a rough patch and I am now back in my exercise routine so they should be perfect shortly. They are very breathable and I haven't overheated yet. I wanted more protection than a riding jean without bulk. These seem perfect. Took them on an adventure already and they were very comfortable. I am 5'2 and wear size 6-8 jeans. I was a little sad they went on sale a”

It’ll work!

“I am 122lbs and 5’2”. I have the Airwave 2 jacket in size 34, and these pants in size 36 fit me perfectly. I agree with a previous reviewer that the leg is too long, due to the thigh. When standing, the knee pad doesn’t hit my knee at all. I will have to put a stopper in the armor section so that the knee pad sits an inch or two higher. The color is slightly off between 2 and 3. I’ve discovered that it’s not easy finding moto apparel that protects, is comfortable and looks decent. That being said, these pants are a win for me.”

Nice pants, not built for women.

“These seem to be good quality, and they are a lot more flattering than other bike pants I've had, but they are really not sized for women with hips. I bought my regular size, and it didn't fit, and then moved on to the largest size, and while they made the waist bigger, the hips and seat were not any bigger. The fit fine (and look good) standing up, but don't fit at all when seated, which is pretty much what you need in bike pants! I'll have to try a different brand - and this brand should recognize that making women's gear is not just re-marketing men's gear in smaller sizes.”

“Fit is flattering & exactly as expected according to the sizing chart & they look & feel great!”

Quality garment.

“Comfortable. Seams look good. Cut and fit are excellent. I would recommend these. Bang for the buck”
