I bought the blue/black/neon color with the matching black pants the other day, it's been good to me so far. It is a good compromise over bringing a bulky adventure-style jacket which tries to do everything at once.
The jacket is ideally used for layering which is why it doesn't come with armor, that is the idea behind the "Dirt" series. I have a compression/armor suit that goes under it and it is a great fit and seems good for those evenings when the sun goes down while I'm still on the trail. If the weather is hot I just throw on a jersey and can strap this jacket down to my luggage rack since it packs down impressively small for the kind of jacket it is. If it gets rainy I already have a Columbia rain shell which I can throw over it, which I already do over my jersey.

[@BeGoneForGood]

I am a fan of the jacket and would consider it for something to throw over my standard armor on road rides.

[@hughhawley3169]

Good to see you both on the channel after meeting you in person at the Overland Expo! Looks like you had a good ride in Pennsylvania. I look forward to seeing more of your reviews and adventures!

[@BeGoneForGood]

We had a great ride and we are SO happy to be producing vids again. There is so much to say after that awesome trip and all the new gear we had a chance to test out. Hopefully we can get something going for 23 that is just as good.

[@longtolaAviator]

Will it handle in hot weather ?????????because I plan to buy one and bring it to Cambodia 🇰🇭. The temperature there will be high 95F (34C) and low 77 F (25C).

[@Mr.Francisco]

Very informative. What size does he have? What’s his height and weight? Thanks

[@BeGoneForGood]

2xl. He is 5’9” 240. I hope that helps.

[@steveh545]

looks like the Busy Road Discovery Route...

[@BeGoneForGood]

I see what you did there and I like it.

[@PapaDougsAdventures01]

Seems overpriced for a jacket with no armor. Revit has a Euro fit which doesn’t fit my Dad Bod. I use a combination of BMW gear which was also ridiculously expensive but lasts forever.

[@BeGoneForGood]

I think everything Klim might seem overpriced but it is super rugged and hopefully will last forever.

[@martyn_g]

It’s slightly higher then say, Troy Lee Scout which also has no armour and is an OFF ROAD jacket. Off road gear has no armour in it FYI, because you usually wear body armour underneath- it isn’t an “adventure” jacket.
