Bob (Grand Junction, CO)
First Gear Katmandu Jacket
I have used it without the liner and with the vents open. So far it is great. The fit is perfect, and the pads hit all the right places.

Doug P. (Columbus, OH)
Killer Kili Jacket
After looking at several mfg's, I decided on the Kilimanjaro, and very happy I did. My only complaint is that the liner is NOT stand alone like Firstgear's website says. Fit and function is great for the price. I've used and been comfortable in temps from the low 40's to the high 80's so far.

D. (San Antonio, TX)
Firstgear Rush Jacket
Overall, materials and quality of construction are excellent. The jacket is fairly lightweight as it does not have insulation. And there is no waterproof liner to fiddle with-another plus. Waterproofing is accomplished via a "synthetic membrane." My only complaint about the Rush jacket is that the shoulders and sleeves, especially the elbows, are too snug. A little more room in the arms and shoulders and I would give this product a "5" across the board.

Look and feels great
I was able to order last year’s model (Red). Really sharp looking. It replaced the my Tourmaster Transition 2 jacket that I had last year. Lighter, better quality, and a really nice liner. I would definitely wear the liner by itself. Fit is very good. I ordered a large and my chest size is 41 inches. The arms are little long, but I am reasonable short. I would buy it again, especially if red was available.

Matthew (Clearfield, UT)
Great Jacket
I bought a new motorcycle and had to go pick it up in California, and needed a good jacket to keep me warm. I didn't realize I was going to hit 26 degree temp, but the jacket did its part and kept me from freezing. I bought the large long, and I am 6' 4" 225 lbs, and it fits me just right, if I gain weight I might be in trouble.

Not bad
I've been using one for 1.5 years. I wear it on wet days and when the temp is below 60. I commute 200+ days per year on the bike.
Build-quality is fine. No issues. The jacket is warm enough for 40F+ days w/the waterproof liner. Below 40F, I wear a FG heated liner in place of the standard liner and find that it works well provided it's not raining hard.
The outer shell is not completely waterproof but with the included liner the combo seems more or less waterproof.
