The Klim Carlsbad Jacket has been redesigned by Klim Motorcycle Gear and built to an even higher standard from the chassis of its proven, highly mobile predecessor. Engineered for excellent mobility and comfort when riding, the Carlsbad features dramatically improved core and arm ventilation, greater abrasion resistance, more refined storage options, and improved impact protection. This is the light and fast, waterproof solution for hard-charging adventure riders.

Shell/Construction

The shell of the Klim Carlsbad Jacket is a masterpiece of engineering designed to keep you dry and protected in all conditions.

GORE-TEX Performance Shell

The jacket features a GORE-TEX Performance Shell that is guaranteed to keep you dry. This material is renowned for its waterproof capabilities while still allowing breathability, ensuring that you stay comfortable no matter what the weather throws at you.

630D Cordura® Twisted Yarn Overlays

For added durability, the shoulders and elbows are reinforced with 630D Cordura® twisted yarn overlays. This material provides excellent abrasion resistance, making sure that your jacket can withstand the rigours of off-road adventures.

FPL400 Main Chassis Fabric

The main chassis fabric is made from FPL400, the same material used in the Badlands Pro jacket. This fabric offers a perfect balance between durability and flexibility.

Reflective Material

Safety is paramount when riding, especially in low-light conditions. The jacket incorporates 3M™ Scotchlite™ C790 Carbon Black reflective material for biomotion recognition, ensuring that other road users can see you clearly.

High-Quality Zippers

All zippers on the jacket are YKK®, known for their reliability and durability. The double-headed front zipper adds convenience while enhancing ventilation options.

CE AA Rating Certified to EN 17092-3

The Klim Carlsbad Jacket meets stringent safety standards, with its CE AA rating certified to EN 17092-3. This certification ensures that you're wearing gear that's been tested for high safety performance.

Armour System

Protection is key when it comes to adventure riding gear, and the Klim Carlsbad Jacket does not disappoint.

D3O® Armour Pads

The jacket comes equipped with D3O® CE Level 2 LP2 Pro elbow/shoulder armour and a D3O® CE Level 2 back pad. These pads offer excellent impact protection while remaining flexible enough not to hinder your movement.

Adjustable Armour Pad Pockets

You can adjust the armour pad pockets to ensure a perfect fit tailored to your body shape. The pads are also removable if you prefer riding without them or need to wash them separately.

Kidney Belt Compatible

For those who require additional support during long rides, the jacket is compatible with a kidney belt (sold separately).

Ventilation System

One of the standout features of this jacket is its advanced ventilation system, which is designed to keep you cool during intense rides.

Forearm Vents

The double-headed forearm vents allow for adjustable airflow directly into your sleeves, keeping your arms cool even during strenuous activities.

Chest Vents & Back Exhaust Vents

Two chest vents combined with two back exhaust vents ensure optimal airflow throughout your torso. The back vents are offset for better airflow distribution across your body.

Storage Options

When it comes to storage, this jacket has got you covered with an array of pockets designed for various needs:

• 8 External Pockets: Including water-resistant front cargo pockets and handwarmer pockets.
• 6 Internal Pockets: Featuring zippered stash pockets and drop pockets.
• Emergency ID Stat Card Pocket: Located on the forearm.
• Oversized Waterproof Chest Pocket: Perfect for keeping important documents dry.
• Spot® Tracker/Utility Pocket: Conveniently located on the chest.
• Concealed Document Pocket: Behind the back pad for added security.

Fit/Comfort

Comfort has not been compromised in this high-performance jacket:

• Moisture-Wicking Polygiene Anti-Odour Liner: Keeps you fresh even after long hours of riding.
• Soft Collar Liner & Adjustable Cinch Collar: This is for added comfort around your neck area.
• Quick-Adjust Forearm Straps & Adjustable Bottom Hem: This allows you to customise your fit easily.
• Adjustable Velcro Cuffs & Glove-Friendly Zipper Pulls: Ensuring ease of use even when wearing gloves.

In conclusion, if you're an adventure rider looking for a reliable yet comfortable piece of gear that offers top-notch protection without compromising on mobility or storage options—the redesigned Klim Carlsbad Jacket should be at the top of your list.
