QUICK LOOK: KLIM Badlands Pro Adventure Suit

A high-end, all-weather suit designed with a roomy cut and ample adjustment to allow freedom of movement and a good fit. Gore-Tex Pro for true waterproof performance. A dedicated, heavily armored riding suit. Jacket $900; Pants $650.

Mesh chest armor gives protection with ventilation. Adjustable D30 CE armor and integrated back pad make for a heavier-than-average jacket. Ample protection with integrated kidney belt. Secret stash pocket located...shhh.

Jacket and pants have lots of vents with mesh inner liners. Fully unfurled, it offers great airflow when moving but zips up tight (and has hand gaiters) to seal out cold and the elements. Use more layers underneath to keep warm. Comfortable from snowy highlands to desert heat. Pocket and hose routing for hydration system.

Italian full-grain leather lines the inner-knee area, which is great while standing on the pegs, providing padding and grip. Overall, a highly versatile suit good for sit-down road touring and serious adventuring that stops short of enduro-style riding. Fits over all types of boots.
