Klim Badlands Pro Jacket/Pants | Review

Klim Badlands Pro Technical Riding Gear

Sliding through a downward, left-hand turn covered in loose shale, a branch suddenly appeared, whacking me hard on the chest.

The thrust was strong enough to knock me back a bit, but I quickly regained my rhythm and kept the throttle pinned on the Husqvarna TE 511.

As for the incident, it wasn't worth conversation...not a bruise or welt surfaced on the chest, or pain for that matter. And this was due to one reason, and one reason only - the design of the all-new Klim Badlands Pro jacket, which has many innovative features, such as a chest plate made of hi-tech material called Deflexion.

The Klim Badlands Pro series (jacket, pants) is for serious dual-sport/adventure motorcyclists, and I was already praising the design due to the bruise that I didn't have after that branch came out of nowhere.

And this praise continued long after Klim invited a few moto-journalist on a three-day trip in April that included a tour of the Gore-Tex facilities in Elkton, Md., some classroom-type education and then off-road riding with personal pickings from an arsenal of Husqvarna TE 511 and TC 449 dual-sports in Frederick, Md.

That initial testing was where most of the advantages/disadvantages of the Klim Badlands gear were learned. This was after more than 100 miles with a few genius dual-sport guides that took us through the best off-roads that crisscrossed the Maryland/Pennsylvania border.

And although the Klim Badlands gear isn't specific towards the sport-touring crowd, when I left Maryland that weekend, I put the gear through a 200-mile ride that included non-stop rain, temps in the 30s, some snow and 60-mph winds...all on a VFR, looking like a Jedi Storm Trooper. But a very warm and comfortable one...more on that later.

After the Klim and Gore-Tex team educated us on the new line of Fall ADV riding gear, we got our first look at the Badlands combo we'd be testing. The first thing I noticed when peering into the futuristic design of the Badlands Pro Technical Riding Gear is the GORE-TEX logo above the left breast pocket, just as big as the Klim logo on the left pocket. The Gore-Tex factor is of extreme importance to Klim gear; quite simply, the Klim Badlands Pro gear would not be in existence without Gore-Tex.
