Klim produces a wide variety of motor sports protective clothing (as well as few new tactical pieces). One of their most popular products is the Adventure Rally Jacket. This thing is literally packed with features including body mapped reflective panels for increased visibility in traffic, air flow vents, numerous pockets, removable collar system to accommodate Leatt collars, and integrated D3O padding with Dow Corning’s Deflection breathable armor.

The Adventure Rally Jacket was originally designed for wear on the Dakar Rally, an endurance race where riders can’t wear a pack. It integrates a shoulder strap system and one wearer I spoke with said he had carried 60 lbs in his jacket comfortably.

Silent Warrior is cut looser than UF PRO’s STriker XT BDU system, given its use as an over garment, and can be easily adjusted to fit over a variety of base, insulation, and wet weather protection layers.

5.11 Tactical – Taclite M-65 Jacket

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2014

M-65

5.11 Tactical has really stepped up their game and when I see something I think is interesting, I’m going to point it out. This is one of those items. They’ve developed their own take on the venerable M65 field jacket, dubbed the Taclite M-65. The Taclite M-65 is made from 6.14oz Poly/Cotton RipStop fabric with DWR treatment which provides stain, fade, and water resistance. A slim inner liner makes it easy for the M-65 to function as a layer in a broad range of climates. Dual hidden document chest pouches offer secure storage, and a left side strip of Velcro loop functions as a nametape holder.

The Taclite M-65 comes in Black, TDU Khaki, and Tundra.
