KLIM BADLANDS PRO JACKET & PANTS
$1499.99 Jacket, $899.99 Pants II www.klim.com
Klim's flagship adventure-touring gear, the Badlands Pro, was recently
updated with new fabric layouts and improvements to the venting,
storage and fit. Made from a technical fabric that combines Cordura and
Vectran fibers, the gearset has layers of Gore-Tex for waterproofness and
breathability. D3O armor is at the back, shoulders, elbows, hips, knees and
tailbone. The Badlands Pro kit meets a protection standard that historically
has only been awarded to motorcycle gear made from leather.
