Customer ratings for Klim Latitude - 2015 Motorcycle Jacket

Fits well, quality super, will serve me for years of dry riding.

très bon service au delà du produit. bravo à l'équipe

Quite a loose fit and long too but should keep the weather out well. 3DO armour is very comfortable indeed. Super quality you can feel it when you are wearing the jacket.

The Klim Latitude jacket is a fantastic piece of kit! The build quality, materials and design are second to none. As a long distance touring rider I like the fact that it is, in essence, a Gortex shell, with lots of vents and pockets, but no lining or insulation as this provides real flexibility. I have found the venting works really well and riding in temperatures of 30c+ was fine. I've not yet worn it in winter conditions but have no doubt that with a appropriate layers it will not be a problem in the coldest weather (especially as I have an electric waistcoat!). The D30 amour is definitely a big improvement on the amour in my previous jackets - it's much softer, lighter and generally less intrusive but providing a high level of protection. Overall, I would highly recommend this jacket.

This is a great all round jacket from Klim. The goretex works exactly as you'd expect, keeping you dry no matter what weather conditions you encounter. The zips are high quality and waterproof where they need to be. It has a number of pockets both inside and out. The pocket placement could be a little better on the inside because they are either too high or too low to reach easily, but this is a minor point. Despite the jacket only having a mesh inner behind the goretex laminate, and no actual liner or thermal, it's very warm because the Goretex halts any wind that would penetrate 2 or 3 layer jackets. I've used it in temps down to -5C with just a couple of layers underneath and been fine. I've also opened the vents a few times in December and January! The collar is a little stiff to begin with but loosens up after a few hours use. The cinch on the collar to make a good seal against your neck is a very useful feature and works well. I particularly like the wrist pocket which is intended for your medical data. Personally I use this to keep cash or a credit card since it's then easily accessed for tolls or fuel stations. Overall quality is very high as you would expect from Klim, and despite the relatively high price (compared to a regular 3-layer jacket) it's money well spent. No more messing about trying to predict the weather and decide if you need that waterproof liner before you set off. No more stopping under motorway bridges getting your waterproofs on.

The only areas I would mark it down on are the level 1 D30 armour that's fitted as standard. I didn't feel confident that it would do the job in the event of an accident so I replaced it with level 2 and there's quite a difference in terms of thickness without sacrificing anything in terms of flexibility.

Overall extremely pleased with this jacket and I expect it to give me years of wear due to being very well made.

keeps you dry as stated and great product

Worn through very warm and humid conditions where the multiple vent options were so useful for helping to circulate air whilst on the move. Also used in torrential downpours of rain, paired with the trousers, and successfully kept out all the water and cold. My helmet leaked but not this jacket!
