Dainese Avro 4 Jacket Review

[@ZEEK38JACK]

that guy's a legend for keeping a straight face at the beginning.

[@DERMARCODEUTSCH]

I'm a Dainese fan. And I just bought this jacket. It's great. High quality. Thank you guys 👍

[@KissShotHeartUnderBlade]

Hey can you put on this jacket and ride comfortably during summer as well?

[@enrico4816]

up to what temperature does it hold up in cold weather?

He stood so still, I don’t even see him breathing in and out

[@bucsanders7861]

How come you never show the model wearing the back and chest protectors? We really need that info for proper sizing...

[@iamtheiceman]

I sure wish the perforated version of this was still available. It is easily one of their best jackets for fit and features - yet seemingly discontinued. Dainese, we need you to make this jacket again - (the perforated version).

[@n300zx931]

Bought this jacket. Kinda strange fit. Sized up because of the liner, but fits loose without the liner.

[@bertraminc9412]

Yes, Im searching for the all black!

[@jawsgolfvideo9055]

Hmmm, this is interesting regarding size. My new avro 4 arrived today in size 54. I went race fit size and actually ordered 52, same size as my dainese assen 2 1 piece race suit. Jacket arrived today in size 54 and it couldn't be any smaller, it is as tight as possible without being too small. As in perfect race fit. The weird part is that they knew a 52 was too small without me trying it on. Mind = blown lol

[@Fzee_Dre]

Is the jacket lvl 1 or lvl2?

[@robpeters2296]

What's your body measurements?

I couldn't understand that which part of this jacket is synthetic ?

Good video as always. Just a question: will there be a Super Speed 3 jacket review? Cheers and thanks in advance!

[@alexj6882]

Hi I'm 178cm tall and weigh 72kg. Would a 50 be okay??

[@syed8460]

Very tight on the arms, I would say size up, if you workout at all go one up or find a more relaxed jacket

[@bearskillz]

hello. the removable liner from the video, can be bought separately?

[@RevZilla]

Not through us sadly, but Alpinestars might be able to source one directly for you.

[@DERMARCODEUTSCH]

Hi I see almost your videos and I like them all. I want to ask your opinion.. Which Dainese leather jacket should I buy? I have Dainese Air Crono 2 and I like it. But which one should I buy? Dainese Assen leather jacket oder Avro 4?

[@RevZilla]

Both are very nice, but the Avro 4 is a step up from the Assen. The leather and other details are even nicer, so personally I'd choose the Avro 4. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-avro-4-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-avro-4-perforated-jacket

[@m02nik]

Hi revzilla, my Height 175cm and 71kg with chest circumference at 95cm, planning to wear it without thermal lining...would u suggest size euro 46 or 48?

[@RevZilla]

You could probably get away with 46. -DrewZilla

[@Serckep]

Man this one looks pretty good. Thinking of coupling it with my SuperSpeed. Although I for instance am a bit reluctant of Dainese jackets anymore ever since the so blatant cheapening of their products. For instance, check the Dainese Racing D1 and now check the one that came next, Dainese Racing 3. You went from a nicely stitched and leathered and detailed jacket to something that seems made in China in a couple of hours stitching some random leather panels together. I don't know I dig the Avro 4 aesthetics though. Love the buttons on the wrists instead of velcros (that ruin my ****ing gloves). Would love a small red logo on the collar too!

[@Serckep]

Hey @RevZilla. I have worn the SuperSpeed that I bought you this last winter for a few days, and it seemed to windblock better than the 'textile' CarveMaster -that I got as well-. I know that the textile with GoreTex and stuff is going to be thousand times better in case of rain and also more comfy whatnots, but... ...Would you say that for the SOLE matter of windblock and warmth, would this Avro 4 with its thermal layer be even better than the CarveMaster (which is a middle-top of the line 3 season jacket)? Probably not in the neck area for obvious reasons, but overall. Last question: are zippers still bullshit? Be honest there... Thanks in advance. I'm thinking of buying it... (although might wait a few months to get it since north of 600$ for yet another leather would be too capricious).

[@RevZilla]

For your dimensions and riding style, I would probably go with the Dainese in size 48 or 50. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-avro-4-perforated-jacket

[@MBMelgaard]

Would this jacket have enough flex round the arms to be worn comfortably on my Yamaha mt-09 Tracer (fj-09 in the US I think)? It has a more upright position so I don’t need a jacket, that forces me into too much of a tucked in position. I think the Tracer can either look like a bit boring touring bike or a more sportive and exciting bike (it has a splendid engine!!) depending on how the rider accessorises🤔😄.

[@RevZilla]

Yes, it would be fine on the Tracer. -DrewZilla

I want to buy this jacket, since im getting my license soon. So I would like to know what size i should get. I‘m 5‘10 and I have a 39 inch chest. I will probably get a d1 wave back protector and maybe a chest protector. Wich size would be the best?

hi revzilla, what sould i command, a 46 or a 48 ? my chest is 36.5-37 inch i'm around 5p7-8 145 ibs... if there would be no lining I would take a 46 but it's the lining that bothers me and my weight gain.

[@RevZilla]

Size 48 is probably appropriate. -DrewZilla

Do you think this jacket is compatible to the Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 Airbag system? Or not enough stretch? Thanks.

[@DanielAlves-im1np]

Hi! Is this jacket waterproof/ water resistant? Thanks! :)

[@RevZilla]

Like almost all leather jackets, it is not waterproof nor resistant. You would need to carry a packable rain jacket to wear over it when it rains.

Yes, both 52 and 54 jackets will connect with 26, 48, or 50 pants. For you, I recommend the jacket in size 52. -DrewZilla

C'est cher, c'est beau, il y a de la qualité ... Mais pas partout ! Première sortie, je zip avec mon pantalon dainese ok, je m'accroupie pour faire la pression des pneus et.... crac dans mon dos ! Je me suis dit que je n'allais pas embêter le sav motoblouz pour ça, je sais d'ou vient le crac ! J'ouvre la membrane au ciseau à l’intérieur de la poche de la dorsale. J'ai maintenant accès au cuir intérieur. Une sorte de bout de tissus s'est arraché(morceau de doublure intérieure) . Il reliait la partie sur laquelle est cousue le zip de raccord au pantalon a une couture du cuir dans le dos. Ce bricolage dainese sert à éviter que le zip descende trop bas et permet de conserver une certaine tenue du pantalon... lorsqu'il est zippé à la veste. Mais quel bricolage de m.... ! J'ai une veste avro d4, elle était de meilleures qualité. Ne parlons pas des pression de poignet qui ne tiennent pas bien Et aussi de la fermeture éclair du raccord au pantalon qui s'est décousue. J'ai sortie mon fil et mon aiguille et j'ai recousue à la main !

[@allmyscars9039]

I had the racing 3 in a size 52 and I want this jacket but Anthony mentions that this jacket is a bit larger than the dainese norm. Will the avro 4 in a size 52 fit as the racing 3 did. I’m sorry if you have already answered this question but I didn’t see it.

[@carlshiu4163]

How does the fit compare to the Avro D1? I noticed Hi Viz Brian wore a size 52 for the Avro D1 and Juice is wearing a Size 50. They both have a 42" inch chest. Does this Avro 4 fit bigger than the D1? Also, I have a super speed c2 in a size 44... should I be getting the 44 in the Avro or 46? I'm not sure if the liner in will make it too tight. Thanks

[@RevZilla]

Yes, this new version fits slightly more generously. The Super Speed is a tighter fit, so you definitely do not need a 46. I would stick with size 44 for you. -DrewZilla

im 1.75cm and 87kg (broad-built). what size do you recommend?

If I have a 48 inch chest what size would you recommend? I’m a pretty built guy so I want to get one that will fit snug. I won’t be racing or anything just everyday street use.

[@radwanghazimoumeh]

Would the Dainese jacket wrap around zipper work with non Dianese pants ( like a pair of Joe Rocket pants)?

[@RevZilla]

Dainese uses OPTI connection zippers. The only other brand to use them is Spidi. So you can connect Dainese with Spidi. All other brands use different zippers and are not compatible with Dainese. So Joe Rocket is not compatible. -DrewZilla

[@taherajna]

No back/spine protection?

[@Akinto710]

Usually on leather, and always on race style leather, you wear a seperate protector underneath since built in protectors don't offer as good protection because they need to cover your entire spine which means they have to go pretty much from your buttcrack to your neckl. Like this pierceimages.imgix.net/ProdImages/prod_54851/p54851.jpg?ver=1525158000

[@Eddycarm]

[@sungerbob1786]

I have a big beer belly. What if i buy a bit(not much) larger jacket then my size?

[@RevZilla]

Dainese leather jackets are cut slim with a hard taper towards the midsection. I also have a bit of a gut and I would not recommend ordering a jacket with a larger-than-needed chest to accommodate your stomach as it ends up feeling awkward to wear. Instead, you may want to check out some jackets from REV'IT! or Alpinestars that are not quite as slim-fit. -DM

how is avro 4 vs the racing 3?

[@CDUKTV_YT]

Hey guys, how does this jacket compare against the Dainese Fighter? I can't pick between the two... Thanks!

[@RevZilla]

The Avro 4 uses Dainese's premium Tutu leather, while the Fighter uses Dainese's highest quality D-Skin 2.0 leather for additional abrasion resistance. Both jackets have removable thermal liners. The Fighter's D-Skin leather is well worth the slight increase in price, but both are excellent options. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-fighter-leather-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-avro-4-jacket

[@kostaspap7850]

Hello revzilla!! Which is best to buy dainese avro 4 or dainese fighter?

[@alexyleigh]

Besides the removable thermal liner, are there any other differences between the Avro 4 and the Racing 3?

[@RevZilla]

The Racing 3 uses S1 stretch fabric at the scapula, while the Avro 4 uses accordion stretch leather at the scapula. Besides that and the thermal liner, there aren't many functional differences. -DrewZilla

[@Serckep]

Man the Racing 3 is one of the worst pieces of leather I've seen Dainese do. Ever had one in your hands? Looks cheaply made. Compare it to the Racing D1 (its predecessor) for instance. I'd steer clear from the Racing 3, personally.

Did you correlate your chest measurement to that size too? Height and weight don't really paint an accurate picture of a body structure / fit without using the chest measurement.

No D1 or D2 leather for $600?? And, no hump? Definitely NOT for the track.

[@vibeymonk]

Legit thought that guy was a show piece

[@aforashish7]

Is it made up of Animal leather?

[@jymieha3098]

As opposed to...mineral leather?

[@threethrushes]

No, it's made of human skin and fingernails.

[@aforashish7]

Jymie Ha yup...

[@aforashish7]

Gerhard Symons very funny

I thought this jacket was amazing Until I heard $600. Nope.

[@Serckep]

Why not? $600 is the average for quality leather jackets. Dainese has them all around that price, and this one really looks both good and solid, and with a liner even (that's the lesser of the problems as you can just add one yourself TBH, but still).

[@maninredd]

It costs like half of my bike. Haha.

[@seanviper99]

if your bike was a piece of shit then yes

[@DamianTroyer]

Get payed to do nothing? F yeah

[@jfrx5]

Could he also use a backprotector like the dainese Wave underneath the jacket, or is the size 50 too small then?
