VOLUME ISSUE JUNE , P113 List Price: Jacket $649.99 Pants $449.99 Website: https://leatt.com/us JACKET & PANTS STANDOUT FEATURE • High-quality construction • CE Level 2 Tested and Certified • Lots of Innovative Features RIDER ANALYSIS I'm not typically a fan of zip-out liners, but the jacket liners in the Leatt MultiTour 7.5 have changed my perspective to some degree simply because they are nice enough to be worn as casual wear. Some companies claim that their jacket liners can be worn that way, but unless you're okay with looking like a clown, you usually can't wear them anywhere but under your gear. However, on par with the rest of this kit, the Leatt liner looks nice, is well-constructed and works as ad- vertised. That same comment holds true for the rest of the MultiTour 7.5 gear. It's packed with great features, and I personally love the style. The contoured cut of the sleeves works perfectly for sitting or stand- ing while riding, and the CE level 2 padding in the jacket and pants is soft and pliable enough that you don't even know it's there. The ventilation in the jacket is outstand- ing, but the pants could use a few extra ports, as I didn't feel that they flowed enough air to provide much relief from the heat. There are plenty of pockets, small and large, but they are especially versatile because the waterproof pockets are placed where you need them, and there's a large, vented pocket in the back to put your wet liner in. I also love the hydration pocket and the feed tube holder built into the front of the jacket. The pants have a large, zippered bottom for easy entry. ments and your cell phone dry and vented pockets for things that might already be wet. The jacket shown comes in sizes from small to 3XL, while the pants are sized to fit anyone from small to 4XL. If you need a larger jacket, the black version is available up to 5XL.
