Product Description
Firstgear Kilimanjaro Waterproof Jacket
Named after the famous snow-capped volcano in Tanzania, the renowned Kilimanjaro jacket, now in its fourth generation, was created for a life of extreme riding.

AMAZING JACKET
I rode to work today and it was only 27 degrees out. It takes about 45 minutes to get to work. I was toasty all the way. All I had on was the Kilimanjaro and a long sleeve t-shirt and I was sweating by the time I got to work. This is at 4:30 AM so there's no sun to warm you up. This jacket is almost too warm sometimes. All I need is a t-shirt and I'm good down to 27 degrees so far. I'll be looking to test it with lower temperatures next week. Awesome jacket.

Great Jacket, great price
I have had many jackets over the last 15 years motorcycling and this is one of the best. Completely waterproof, good to wear with liner down to about 20 degrees. Fit and finish is very good, and the pockets are in the right spots. I gave a 3 for durability as the jacket is too new to rate, as I have only used it for a couple thousand miles. The only thing I do not like is the lack of Velcro on the neck flap, it is a metal button which can get tricky to clip in place. I am just more used to Velcro in the neck as it is easier to stick together.

Best jacket I have ever had.
I have more than several jackets. Lots of experience with motorcycle gear and protective jackets and other gear. To put it quick and simple this is the best jacket I have ever had and I have retired all the other ones. This is my jacket of choice in all but very extreme hot days say 90 degrees and over. In those conditions, nothing works, not even mesh jackets. So on those days jacket goes in trunk and I just enjoy the nice day and feel the breeze. In all other conditions, you would look a long time to find one to beat this one.

Firstgear - Kilimanjaro Jacket
Must admit that I was concerned about the "Wine and Silver" color, but the price was just too good to pass up. Turns out that it is a sharp looking jacket. I love the color combination. The sleeves are just a bit long, but then I have very short arms. The collar is a bit tall and rubs if top snap is fastened. Leaving the top snap undone, it fits just fine and does an excellent job of protecting the neck in cold weather riding. Have ridden in mid-thirty degree weather on a ST1100, and stayed warm and comfortable. Have not had the opportunity to try it in serious rain or in summer heat as yet, so can not comment on the water resistance or venting. Great jacket with good features. If it wears as well as my first, Firstgear jacket, it's a steal at this price.

Timbuktu Air Jacket
I bought this jacket to travel through South America. At first I was amazed by the weight of the jacket, its heavy!!! The inner linen had to be taken out of the jacket the same day, to wear that linen in the tropics is almost impossible without having a heat stroke. I was worried about the jacket too because it´s very heavy and warm, but I can manage to wear it in Caracas, with all the ventilation zippers open it´s comfortable when riding, if you have to stop at a red light then you´ll suffer. Anyway the construction of the jacket is very sturdy and looks great, at midday I would say it´s impossible to wear in the tropics, but in any other softer climate it would work perfectly.

Great jacket...much more than I was expecting.
Having purchased ICON jackets for upwards of $400 (on sale), I was pretty much expecting a budget jacket for the price I paid for this Firstgear Kilimanjaro. I was pleasantly surprised when I received the jacket and put it on. It's build really well and feels solid and heavy with the liner installed. I have not used it without the liner yet and I have the feeling it might be too hot for the summer months in New Mexico, but for 6 months out of the year this will be a great jacket for me. I liked it so much that I bought a matching one for my wife!

Great Product
This is a great jacket. Don't let the low price fool you. I love the fit and the overall quality of the jacket. It has pockets everywhere, great protection for a textile coat, and sheds water like a duck's back. I've ridden in pouring rain and it is dry and toasty. It would probably be too hot for summer, but is a great cool/cold weather coat.

Firstgear-Kilimanjaro Jacket
Great product at great price from a good superstore. Very happy with everything the jacket offers. Just returned from a ride where the temps were in the low 50's and the jacket provided excellent coverage as well as warmth. Thank you for selling it at the price it was offered and excellent service.
