PRODUCT REVIEW I
KLIM WOMEN'S MARRAKESH
C
onstructed of a four-way stretch woven
nylon, the Klim Women's Marrakesh
might not even look (or feel) like a motor-
cycle jacket. Its casual look and stretchy comfort
make it seem like something you'd wear around
town, but thanks to the Karbonite Micromesh
1000D Cordura chassis, and D3O protective
inserts, it's got all the protection necessary for
heading out on two wheels, with AA rating for
abrasion and CE Level 1 padding.
The stretch-woven nylon isn't exactly a mesh
fabric, but it offers uniform breathability—as
the folks at Klim say, it "seeps air" instead of
flowing air like vented gear, making it ideal for
a broad range of temperatures. It is available in
three different colors: black, burnt olive (pic-
tured) and cool gray in women's sizes XS to 2X.
The Klim Marrakesh
Women's Jacket
might not look like
motorcycle gear,
and that's kind of
the point.
The unique
breathable four-
way stretch
fabric allows the
Marrakesh jacket
the "seep air"
for good overall
comfort.
The IP Ghost inserts
from D3O are the
company's latest in
slim-fitting protection.
They flex almost as
much as the fabric.
