Klim?

[richardbd]

I rode over the Brooks range in the pissing rain and up the Dalton Highway to Deadhorse in a Klim Traverse suit. Bone dry...

I do, but it's a summer suit, essentially.

You were eulogising on AdvRider about it, saying it was fine and dandy...................

I really do not need to turn up for meetings with a wet crouch

Do the jacket and trousers zip together, on KLIM clothing?

I've had the Lattitude suit for a couple of years and can confirm it does zip together, although to be honest with the kidney belt and the braces I rarely bother, the zip's quite small anyway.
Responding to other points raised - it's been amazingly waterproof iin some real torrential conditions & drys quickly - but as with most textile stuff it's worth Nikwax cleaning and re-waterproofing regularly; the armour's done it's job in a couple of low speed offs; the ventilation's great in the summer, though you do need to layer-up in colder weather.
After >50,000 miles, touring, commuting, camping - the suit's still going strong, couple of small niggles - piece of the velcro's coming away on the jacket and the neck's quite a wide opening, so well worth a buff or something similar most of the time. Would strongly recommend as excellent all year round kit.
