Our favorite new jacket from KLIM falls outside our usual outline for the “jacket” category. Most of our jackets offer some version of the complete package—1) impact protection via built-in armor, and 2) abrasion resistance via tough shell material.
The Stow Away from KLIM offers neither—it’s an add-on rain jacket to go over the top of your existing motorcycle jacket and give you added protection from the wind and rain.
As a versatile utility piece, this jacket will excel as an everyday jacket both on and off the bike. It’s got very subtle branding, functional pockets and a hood, and the generous pit vents are great for regulating body temperature whether you’re hiking on foot or huffing up the hill muscling your bike through rough terrain.
As its name would suggest, the Stow Away packs into a pouch that lives inside the right-hand pocket. And it even comes with a lash-down cord with hooks for fastening to the back of your bike.
- Minimal yet effective 3M reflective hits at the backs of the elbows
- Generous mesh-backed pit vents to regulate body temp
- Packs down to the size of a cantaloupe in a built-in “stow away” bag
- Alloy hook on the hood to keep
- Elastic cinch and quick-draw adjusters to tighten up the hem of the jacket
- Hung Gore-Tex membrane for ultimate waterproofing and breathability
- Mesh-lined to help air circulate
