Well, out of all the rainwear on the internet, this was the one with the best ratings in terms of durability and efficiency to keep me dry. I’m from Costa Rica, where we have 7 months of rain in a tropical country, and the impacts from ‘La Niña phenomenon’ are on another level… I hope the hard test it’s going to undergo is successful for this gear.
Right on! We have a US Customer who has a house in South America and he lives there in the rainy season. It treats him well! We look forward to your feedback.
Our pleasure! Here is a little 90 second run down of the features: ruclips.net/video/PiYXEFv7SKg/видео.html We have been riding in it for a year now and it has worked perfectly every time we have had to put it on...
Kyle, thanks for the review. Just to make certain, am I correct in assuming that the SSJ Solo Storm Jacket and Pants are oversized to fit over armored jackets and pants?
Hello Chris! Yes, they are sized to fit OVER your armored riding gear. In this video I am l wearing a Large top and bottom over my KLIM Carlsbad Jacket and Pants. I actually sized down the jacket to a Medium when wearing my KLIM Baja S4 jacket. Check this out: ruclips.net/video/h47MgNp7ytw/видео.html You can see the fit differences in the two jackets. I am 5' 9" and 220 lbs.
Still in my same jacket and pants. Have worn it form CA to SD, from San Diego to San Fransisco, all around the Southwest and all up the East Coast Florida to Virgina. Still looking great and keeping my dry! - Kyle

@@Nelsonriggusa Thanks for the perspective Kyle. It seems I can never find a gas station with a canopy until after I'm already soaked - LOL.
Ha! Ha! Ha! Right...
One year on; is the jacket still waterproof and has the high vis stayed strong or is it fading?

@@Nelsonriggusa Thanks! when I looked up PU backing all I got was Astroturf backing. What does the "PU" stand for? Thanks for your reply.
@@texaslonestarrider polyurethane. Thanks for watching!
What is the liner in the pants? Is it the mesh type or a smooth solid liner? My boots always get hung up on the mesh type lining.
The pants are not lined. As the rider is typically already wearing a pant, we did not see the liner as necessary.
