Leatt MX & Enduro Rain Jacket - Clear (3XL)

Brilliant bit of kit, does what it says on the tin. Not sweaty as armpits and right down the sides are breathable mesh, and price is very good value. Would definitely recommend

In all honesty, I only bought this as a fashionable/occasional raincoat when walking and not for cycling or anything that it was originally designed or intented for so this review will be rather limited on information, but I really do like the look and waterproof capabilities of this jacket however there are no pockets or a hood but those are my own preferences and the heat that you generate by wearing this is will be quite alot (based on a few trials on warm slightly overcast days) due the nature of the material used but there is a material meshing along the underside of the sleeve.I also found the material very easy to clean and its sturdier than I than initially thought as I've scraped by a few obstacles whilst out rambling from bushes to building and it's still ... MoreIn all honesty, I only bought this as a fashionable/occasional raincoat when walking and not for cycling or anything that it was originally designed or intented for so this review will be rather limited on information, but I really do like the look and waterproof capabilities of this jacket however there are no pockets or a hood but those are my own preferences and the heat that you generate by wearing this is will be quite alot (based on a few trials on warm slightly overcast days) due the nature of the material used but there is a material meshing along the underside of the sleeve.I also found the material very easy to clean and its sturdier than I than initially thought as I've scraped by a few obstacles whilst out rambling from bushes to building and it's still in good condition surprisingly.I have no qualms recommending this jacket and dirtbike express as the price is reasonably cheap.I found the support team at dirtbike superb and very professional because I initially called to enquire why my bill didn't show the p&p and they said that as they had it in their warehouse so it got sent out for free...who can grumble at that ;)Overall hassle free purchase, good item, great store and staff hence my 5 star rating.

Best bang for your buck

I love this rain jacket. Works great at keeping the rain out and packs away small. I always keep it in my tank bag when on rides. It also works great as a wind breaker when it gets chilly. It is meant to be worn over your riding jacket. I wear an XL in my gear, and this in an XL fits perfectly over.

Great buy for the price

Works great, good price, no complaints. I've seen complaints that it has holes for airflow on the side. Without you sweat big time.

Mesh vents get you wet.

Vents under arms and at sides are ridiculous.Rode in light rain , under arms and sides got wet.My phone in my jacket pocket got soaked...Irreparable, had to purchase a new phone.Bike registration in pocket was soaked.Why would a rain jacket have mesh sides and underarms ????

Nice features and great price

Price is right. Material feels more like silicone than PVC - it is very flexible and has a tiny amount of stretch. Collar and cuffs have a soft elastic binding, which is a nice touch at this price point. Zipper is euro style, with the zipper pull on the left, like US women's clothes.Sizing: Large fits me well at 6'4" and 175lbs - sleeve length is good for my tall frame and not too baggy, which is rare. Large size weighs 283g / 10oz and packs up to about the size of a 12oz can when compressed (about the size of a pint/ big can uncompressed). Fits nicely into a quart Ziploc bag.Durability: Should be good for occasional use jacket - durability is yet to be determined (writing this before I've had a chance to use it, will update later) - but it seems like it'll ... MorePrice is right.

No longer get wet

Although this is advertised as a Rain Shell Jacket, I use it under my regular rain jacket. I bought this item because I would get a wet spot under the zipper of my regular rain jacket by a spot under the zipper. And by using this shell underneath nothing gets thru now and arrive at work 100% dry when it rains.

Preco quality

For the price it is a good quality product, the zippers fit very well. It is not just a one-piece plastic, on the sides it has grids to perspire, they are placed inside the arm to prevent water from entering, although I believe that in floods something will enter. Of course, it is not intended for such situations. Also the light and folded one fits in the back pocket of the enduro jacket.

Worthless

As the other 1 star reviews have written - this jacket is totally worthless as a rain jacket. It makes a decent wind breaker and in very light rain for a short time it's okay for $40. But there are hundreds of other jackets out there on the market that would pack down this small and actually keep you dry. Don't buy it, I would return it if I could.

this is not a rain jacket.

this is not a rain jacket. It has mesh along both arms and along both sides of the jacket. I don't understand what use this jacket has because if you wore it in the rain your arms and torso would get soaked. I returned it. I can't imagine what Leatt was thinking when they designed this thing
