Almost Perfect
First off I want to say that this is a top quality jacket. The materials, workmanship and attention to detail is second to none. I’m 6’ with a 40” chest and I bought a Large.
My first ride out with the jacket it felt light with plenty of room for body movement and it’s great as a wind breaker.
But there are flaws…..
Venting from the front didn’t create as much airflow as I would have liked through the chest or arms.
The sleeves.…At the inner elbow, they feel tight when wearing just a single layer underneath. I’ve tried it with the Rheon armour and my own (Supershirt) and raising my arm to my intercom isn’t painful, but the material bunches inside my elbow making it feel tight and restrictive.
The collar…..the hold back snaps are a bit fiddly to use.
The collar will rub your neck if you pull the cord too tight.
I wish MM had kept the torso adjustment with this version.
These are small trivial things but definitely worth mentioning as it’s an expensive jacket especially with import fees.
With all this said, I do love the jacket. I’ve not worn it in wet conditions yet so I’m hoping the loose style collar doesn’t let rain in or I’ll have to consider sending it back. Can I do that Mosko???
FWIW…..when I placed my order, it was for the jacket with the torso adjustment. The jacket I recieved was the newer updated version. I’ve done okay though as I now have an AA jacket rather than an A.
Oh, and stickers!!!!!!! £500 on a jacket and not a single sticker in the box…. 🙁
