I think this is (or at least should be) out of the good value for investment price range for most people, given that it adds up to about the price of a good starter bike if buying used or more modest. However really interesting to see what's on offer, or what the brands are capable of doing off the peg, to get an understanding of what you're willing to sacrifice. For example the boots won't be necessary for simple commuters but could be a worthwhile upgrade (instead of getting two separate pairs) for people who like a little risky adventure ride here and there. My stand out highlight was the "double cuff" water protection at 2:42 as I've heard of the problem of choosing to put your gloves over or under your sleeve in heavy rain, but never heard of this two-way solution! Would be a treat to see that on more mid-price jackets, but would be part of the benefit of upgrading if you did (and to be fair I've heard nothing but praise for Rukka, price aside). Thanks to the team for this walk around, and engaging presentational style.
Imagine.... you walk into your local motorcyclegear shop. And they say " Congrats sir/madam. You just wona a unlimited budget full gear outfit" 🙃🤩

Just spent 10 rainy days in epic rain Malaga Spain on an Edelweisse tour. Really glad I had expensive gear would have been miserable without it.
Rukka Nivala 2, Shoei or Arai lid depending on head shape, Daytona Roadstar boots is probably the best kit
I don’t think the most expensive gear is always the ‘best’.
You’re so wrong…
I spent less than that on my motorcycle and full kit.
If I had unlimited amounts of cash I would invite Dionne on a Caribbean cruise.
