Product Description
Firstgear Rainier Jacket

Riding to the best of your ability requires gear that enhances your skills by not only protecting you from the outside elements, but also by functioning internally to keep you dry and maintain a comfortable body temperature. Firstgear’s Technical Performance Gear (TPG) accomplishes these tasks by employing an integrated layering system where each piece performs a specific function. TPG’s three-part system consists of Basegear to keep you dry, a Tech Liner to maintain the correct body temperature and a selection of jackets and pants designed to allow the first two layers to operate properly by protecting against outside forces. TPG is the first system initially designed to function as a cohesive three-part system.

The Rainier sports a list of features as long as a relaxing vacation and delivers supreme performance in practically any situation. There are plenty of pockets to allow you to carry lots of small or large valuables. The front and rear reflective panels, and a loop to attach a L.E.D. flasher, provide glowing visibility in poor light. An internal pull cord allows you to “lock” the Max Flow intake vents open to provide a cooling airflow. And you’ll love the internal under-helmet rain hood that keeps water from dripping down your back.

Features:
  • Waterproof and breathable ¾ length 600 Denier nylon outershell
  • Kevlar® reinforced Teramid® underlay at shoulders and elbows
  • Removable, fully-sleeved liner functions as a stand-alone jacket
  • Max-Flow vent system; 10” intake vents on front, 12” exhaust vents on rear; uses an internal, locking, pull cord and external zipper to customize air flow

  • KNOX® CE-approved shoulder and elbow armor
  • Easy-grip pulls let you get into your pockets without having to remove your gloves
  • Upper right arm pocket, lower left arm key pocket
  • Hidden rear pouch

Bill Seabeck,  WA Excellent Jacket I ordered the jacket in a Large Tall and it fits perfectly. It is a bit snug in the shoulder & chest area but not uncomfortable. I ordered the Yellow/Black version for my cold and gray hour long commutes in the rain. I find the zippers well placed and this thing keeps me DRY, DRY, DRY! Warm too! It can get a bit heavy after an hour or so in a downpour, but guess what? DRY! Once the jacket dries out it is back to normal. Get this!

Paul B. Schwartz Petaluma,  CA Does it all They didn't miss a trick with this jacket-good quality-very versatile in changing climates. Have only ridden in temps between about 42 and 65 as yet. I haven't tested it in a downpour, so I can't speak for its waterproof capabilities but I expect that it will keep me dry. I'll have to see how it does in the warmer weather of the spring and summer.

claus ann arbor,  MI returned Seems like a well made jacket with nice features, but I had to return mine because the collar cut uncomfortably into my throat. Return was fast and without problems. I bought a Tourmaster Transition 2 instead. I would recommend Motorcycle Superstore.
