Which is to say, it gets a laminate Gore-Tex shell that’s 100% waterproof, multiple vents going through said shell, and super sturdy materials and rugged overlays at the shoulders and elbows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe improvements over the previous generation Latitude are mostly concerned with reducing bulk, adding comfort in the form of flex\/stretch panels, and even more adjustment features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCompared to KLIM's Carlsbad platform, the Latitude gets a more fitted cut, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ewith dual side torso straps for eliminating unwanted bulk, or adjusting between seasonal layers; as well as a zippered side gusset, for adding more room at the hips when seated on the bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eKLIM sometimes loses the plot with color, but we'll subjectively submit that they nailed the blue option on this jacket. There are also a classic black and high-vis options, too. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with all KLIM jackets, this one comes as a shell only. Supply your own thermal liners as you see fit. And unlike some multi-layer jackets, this one doesn't need a rain layer because with all the various vents zipped up, it IS a rain layer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKLIM distinguishes this jacket from its slightly more ADV oriented sibling, the Carlsbad, by giving it Level 1 armor, and pushing it more towards the touring category. \"Touring\" itself can be a subjective term, and something of a misnomer, because we all know that BMW Adventure bikes, and their many analogs, make fantastic on-road machines. And whether they see dirt or not we don't necessarily agree with the idea of using higher-level armor only for off-road use. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe never argue against upgrading to Level 2 armor, and if the level-1 spec in this jacket is going to hold you back, don't let it.
