This jacket provides phenomenal protection for you ATV and Sport Touring guys. If you're looking for a jacket that provides great protection, waterproof, breathability, but most importantly it's going to keep us safe on the roads, around the back roads, this is the jacket for you. Now a few things. Sizes small through XXXL very common in a lot of the Klim products. Three different colored ways, Hi-Vis, black and at upnorthsports.com you'll find the gray jacket as well. There is the zipper to jacket system, so you can get the pants and zip that to this jacket as well, and I'll get some close-up photos for you as well. Now there are so many features on this jacket guys it's going to be hard to do it justice without some close-up photos. We really want to get that abrasion resistant material for you to see, as well as some of the armor. This has some additional features that you don't see on the Apex or the Induction, some of the other Klim ATV jackets. Let's start off. Gore-Tex three-layer system, as well as D30 Armor. There's more D30 Armor in this jacket than you'll see in some of the other jackets, as well as the abrasion resistance. They've really beefed up the abrasion resistance on this jacket. And we hope nobody ever gets in an accident or takes a spill, but if you do, you'll hardly ever know, because this jacket is going to look brand new. Klim products, of course, we are dealing with GORE-TEX throughout. This is a three-layer GORE-TEX membrane system, 100% waterproof, 100% windproof, and it's going to breathe extraordinarily well. And one really nice feature, as well is the GORE-TEX three-layer talisman system on the shoulders, the elbows and down the forearms. This stuff is amazing guys. You're bashing through the trees, maybe you take a spill off the bike, this stuff is going to keep you protected. It's also been included with the Armacor Panels on the chest, four panels down the chest, as well as a main one down the back. It is very abrasion resistant. That mixed with the Cordia 840D on this jacket, this thing is meant to be ripped through. It is built tough and it is flexible as well. Along with that, there's going to be D30 Armor you're going to find throughout this beast-in the elbows, in the shoulders, down the back, and it's even been included on the chest of this jacket. You've got 360-degree protection. This jacket is going to offer you great functionality, as well as, versatility. As with the other jackets, the armor is removable, there are adjustable straps on the forearm. If you're looking for storage space this jacket has it. Not only the huge pocket on the back, where you can fit your wallet, cell phone, extra gloves, anything you need, but there's many other pockets as well. Waterproof pockets for registration, your phone, extra keys, those kinds of things. Let's talk about the ventilation ports, because I know that's one thing that you say, "Well with all the features on this jacket, it feels like it's going to be a really heavy jacket and I'm going to get hot." I've read reviews on guys using this in 80 to 90 degrees and with 10 ventilation ports they're staying cool. Especially at highway speeds. You're going to find them at the forearm, near the pit on the bicep, down the chest, straight down beneath the pit and down the back as well. Just a few other features, as well as on all other Klim jackets, 3M Scotchlite visibility throughout. Another cool feature that I know a lot of riders like is this snap-back collar, which you can fold back and actually snap to the jacket. I know sometimes it gets a little hot up there, that additional breathability factor as well. If you have more questions about this jacket we'd love to be able to help you and be able to compare jackets too, because I know sometimes it's hard to define some of these features and what's right for you.
