Description
The adventures Pol Tarrés gets into tend to be extreme. In terms altitude, the cold, and certainly in the heat of the desert – racing the Africa Eco Race at the knife edge. Using Pol’s vast experience in going full-send as input, we’ve designed the fully ventilated Africa jacket. Puristic, straight forward, and ready to tackle the hottest of adventures.

Keep it pinned for longer
Refined yet rugged ballistic mesh meets crucial zones with laser-cut ventilation. Based on comments from Pol, up to 70% of the jacket is made to breathe in fresh air. All to allow for a rally-ready, breathable construction, as well as having super stretchy soft shell and hard-wearing ripstop fabric where it needs to be. A carefully assembled mix of materials that assures you’re kept cool when adventure heats up. To maintain focus and to keep it pinned for longer.

Purposeful ripstop and dark camo mesh
In terms of style, you’re looking at bright red, purposeful looking ripstop and a clear, dark camo print incorporated into the mesh panelling. Meanwhile the jacket is decked out in only the necessary pockets, with a pair above the hips and a chest pocket – with a goggle wipe – up front and one at the lower back. Plus, a practical inner jacket pocket to keep your personals in board.

Pol Tarrés style from every angle
On the technical side of things, the Africa jacket provides CE-level 1 SEESMART impact protection. Thin but effective, the elbow and shoulder guards offer comfort on any ride. Switching from on-road to off-road? Take them out and slip the jacket over your protection vest and head into adventure with an extremely breathable rally jacket that breathes Pol Tarrés style from every angle.

Ready for Avertum Tech-Air® airbag system - ONE SIZE UP

Under this garment you can wear our REV'IT! Avertum Tech-Air® Airbag - or a Tech5 airbag - if you purchase the garment one size bigger than your usual size. If you wish to wear a garment that is marked as ""Ready for Avertum Tech-Air® airbag system"", you must be sure that the garment can accommodate the expansion of the airbag and therefore we recommend following below fit equation: 1. Measure chest circumference and divide the measurement by two; 2. Measure garment flat on chest line; 3. If the difference between point 1 and point 2 is 12 centimeters or bigger the garment is suitable to wear on top of the airbag. Note: Please keep in mind that the garment should be purchased in the correct size in order for the shoulder and elbow protection to fit properly and best protect you in case of a crash. In order to create space for the expansion of the airbag, you can remove all separate layers (thermal liners, water proof liners) that can restrict the expansion of the airbag in the event of a crash. Remove the separate back protector in your garment, if any, when wearing the airbag (a back protector is included in the airbag) and adjust all adjustment straps on body to the widest position.

Laminated reflective logo on back

This product has a reflective logo at the back of the garment to help riders who are on the road be seen in low light, inclement weather, and at night.
