Title: Australian brand jacket: Rivet
Post by: mr blackstock on August 23, 2014, 07:30:52 PM
I have been using an old Rivet jacket for a few years now, and I have found it to be the warmest jacket I have owned for reasonable $$, better than my leather one.  I decided to get a new one, and found this new jacket for sale for $89, won it on ebay and am very satisfied!

The jackets are very comfy, warm in winter and quite water proof.  I use aerosol scotchguard on my fabric jacket for ultimate water proofing too.

Hello,

Yes it has armour, good hard plastic.  The fabric is cordura by dupont, very hard wearing stuff.
