Klim or Rukka

[MIKEY B]

It was the Proshell construction and vents that made my mind up for the Badlands as well. It is a lot of cash for a jacket but I'm hoping it lasts as well.

First ride out yesterday. Nice warm day - but had a phase change gilet thing on in the morning underneath as a base layer very toasty - after lunch that had to come off and it was time to open up the vents on the badlands WoW! 21c and it was getting a bit chilly! So it does bode well if we get a really hot one this summer.

The other thing I found myself doing is checking if the jackets armour was still there! Now that's a first! With other jackets you know it's there cos its stiff and in my experience, awkward.
So all in all, it's a great start.

Having had one warm(ish) day to ride in and several recent very wet ones, I can confirm that my Klim Badlands jacket is 100% waterproof and that the 8 vents work very well for letting some cool fresh air in when required
