Klim Hardanger Costum textil de motocicletă One Piece galben

I rode this suit through the rain and it is completely bonkers how good it is. I got a KLIM storm collar the pair it with and now it acts like a real drysuit. Underneath I'm just wearing my normal clothes. Which is so much better than getting changed every time, twice a day when I commute. It would've been better if the legs were a bit wider at the bottom,so it could fit my waterproof boots (Revit) better.

I would like to add to my previous review with my experience. This suit - once on - is very lovely. It keeps you painstakingly dry for certain and you feel protected in it too. And while it keeps you dry it keeps you cool. Now let me expand on this. The suit keep you cool but I ride in questionable weather. I have all zippers closed. If it gets any colder I will have to wear extra layers. The suite breathes very well so there is no stuffiness at all which one can experience with the usual nylon raincoats. The suit keeps the wind out. I love it - once it is on. My suit is of the second generation so it has three main zippers instead of two. This prevents any leakage of rainwater in the crotch area. But and this is a but, to put the suit on you have to wiggle your feet through the leg openings (before closing the leg zipper). For one leg this is ok as you have wiggle space. But the second foot through the other 'hole' is a balancing/frustrative act. Particular in my case as the soles of my sturdy shoes are made of sticky rubber. Once the legs are in it is a matter of hoisting 'the pants' up into the scrotch area and moving the arms into the sleeves. Getting out of the suit I added a nylon thingy (a flat cord) to the lowest part of the trousers left and right. I stand on this nylon extension while bending down to undo the leg zipper(s). It prevents me from having to bend over and use two hands to loosen the zipper. I am not flexible enough to enjoy bending over with two hands at feet level which is actually required to undo the beginning of the sturdy zippers (well unless you are willing to bend the knees). Also I cut out the mesh at the hip pocket level "airthrough" zippers as to allow me to enter into my trouser pockets. Forgetting anything in your trouser pockets is terrible as otherwise (with mesh) you would have to climb out of the suit (for he top part). I learned quickly and I don't miss any of the two cm of mesh. Number of zippers is still ridiculous and you better pee before going in as there is no zipper for that with its consequences. I wish they could make a 'light' version without the ventilation zippers (keep the ones that can access the trouser pockets. As said before, if the weather gets dry I will change into my leathers as I have a emergency thin raincoat with me. Talking about the raincoat, when you leave house with this suit and take it of at work you have no "spare coat" to walk out during the lunch break. Be prepared to hang a coat at work (or do as me:). Finally, the original idea of having only two zippers is a far more practical one is the long zipper frees you immediately from the suit (version 1.0). If they would make a lighter version (aka less zippers) and maybe made the long zipper go more in front of the leg so it by-passes the central scrotch area? So the suit could be definitely improved but as said before this is one good suit which fits my purposes to the best. Just getting in. BTW Getting out is easier as I stand on one leg on pull it at the same time my boots slide out easily. I just wanted you all to have a good general impression of this somewhat expensive tool. It doe swhat it says on the tin but make sure you can open it. KR WE

This suit is a curious contraption. I am wearing it now while typing this review. Maybe I should wait until I ride it in the rain but it already feels solidly water tight. This suit has three main zippers. One for the upper torso and one for each leg. So when taking it off or putting it on you have to step out of it, or in it, 'using' both feet to pass by/through the 'center piece' which is kind of a (watertight) boxer short(?). Which is rather good as there is no zipper in the crotch area as when I ride in the rain I tend to sit in a pool of water which the saddle collects (no such problem with my previous bike). At this moment I am sitting in the living room all dressed up and wearing this suit all zipped up and I am NOT sweating (at this moment I am wearing a jeans, shirt and a sweater). That means it really does breath as it is definitely not cold in this room (girls watching the tv). The suit is rather stiff, crackling and loud(?) but it gets more flexible all the time. At first I was fighting to get in or out of it, but I am getting the hang of it and the suits starts to give in. You must make sure you have some space around you to kick your legs or move your torso and arms when moving in or out. It is very nice that the cuffs can be tightly closed and you can move your arms in or out by just opening the wrist zippers. Talking about zippers, I counted at least 22 zippers. I do think that is too much (it's ridiculous). FYI I do have a 'dry(er) weather' outfit so I do not need all the ventilation (I'd switch dress code). There is an inner pocket inside of the suit and it could be very practical if it would have been bigger. What does fit in this pocket??? It would fit three cigars or a pair of sunglasses without box (or an ..phone 11, just). Thus a waste of material and zipper. So I have to carry my wallet in one of the outer pockets or in my clothing. I checked the outer breast pocket but this also is too narrow for my wallet (which fits in any inside pocket of any jacket I have. As I don't want to carry the wallet in the trouser pockets, which btw are strangely 'reversed' - pocket goes backwards. So I'll probably carry some banknotes in the 'medical pocket' on the left sleeve for petrol stops. Also all zippers have 'zipper garages' to prevent water getting in at the start of the zipper. All, except the two trouser pockets (why!?!). Most zippers have nice little cords attached and all zippers can be handled with gloved hands. The suit can be adjusted to your shape at the lower arms, lower legs and the waist. Which makes the suit feel more tight and comfortable. I would have liked a velcro system to tighten the end of the trousers, the two little push-buttons available now are akward - who likes to bend that deep and fumble with buttons? The back has some elastic built-in at shoulder height which makes the shoulder rather flexible. I can put both hands on top of my head. Any higher (40 cm) and I have to 'fight the stretch''. All in all - or in spite of the above - this suit definitely breathes quality construction and quality materials. That can hardly be overemphasised. It does take a little getting used to but the suit follows the body movements easily so you sort of forget you are wearing it - if it weren't so loud(?). I am 1,79 m tall and weight 90 kilos. I wear the medium regular and it fits rather nice. To my surprise my wife and daughter really liked the look of it even though my daughter mentioned the word 'astronaut'. I am sure it also will fit a jacket, but it would be a tight fit as I have quite the belly. Truth to be told: just out of the box I felt the crotch of the suit when standing straight. So I think for the medium size (which I wear now) the max lenght is probably 180 cm and you'd have to be slimmer than I am (my belt lenght is 95 cm). BTW, there is ample way to move all the D3O protecting inside the suit and it is never in the way when you put your arms into the sleeves (my compliments for that). Truth about the suit, it reminds me of a (two piece) suit I wore 20 years ago for ten years. I loved it, it kept me so dry. I feel something special with this suit also, it grows on you, it actually feels comfortable and it gives me the feeling I can trust it. Ain't that strange to say about a suit I have been wearing for only 5 hours? Cheers, Wim
